Between our shampoo and conditioner and these tips, you’ll be sure to prevent future problems.
Hair Care is Important
Maintaining a clean and balanced scalp is essential. Over-washing can strip the scalp of natural oils, while under-washing can lead to dirt and oil buildup. Both extremes can cause dryness, flaking, and irritation.
Depending on your hair type and how often you’re exposed to dirt or sweat, we recommend finding a healthy wash routine. A dirty scalp can become dry, itchy, and even prone to infection if not properly cared for.
Reduce Stress
Believe it or not, stress plays a major role in scalp and skin conditions. High anxiety levels can trigger or worsen scalp issues like dryness or inflammation.
To reduce stress:
Prioritize sleep
Exercise regularly
Maintain a nutrient-rich diet
Practice mindfulness or thought-management techniques
Reducing stress contributes to overall body wellness — including the health of your scalp.
Eat a Healthy Diet
What you eat directly affects your hair and scalp health. Here are a few nutrient-rich foods that support a healthy scalp:
Carrots & leafy greens: Loaded with vitamin A and C, these boost sebum production to naturally moisturize the scalp.
Eggs: Rich in biotin and vitamin B, eggs help with overall hair strength and growth.
Walnuts: Packed with omega-3s, vitamin E, copper, and biotin to prevent dryness, hair loss, and UV damage.
Whole grains: Fuel scalp circulation and reduce inflammation.
If you want results from your dry itchy scalp treatment, start from the inside out with a better diet.
