Essential Scalp Care Tips
Healthy hair starts from a healthy scalp. Proper scalp care improves density, reduces shedding, and supports long-term growth.
1. Cleanse Properly
Washing your scalp regularly removes oil, sweat, and product residue.
For oily scalps → wash more frequently
For dry scalps → choose hydrating shampoos
Clean roots = stronger follicles.
2. Exfoliate Gently
Weekly exfoliation unclogs follicles and removes dead skin cells.
You can use:
Gentle scrubs
Enzyme-based exfoliants
Scalp brushes
This boosts oxygen flow and increases absorption of treatments.
3. Improve Circulation
Blood flow delivers nutrients to the roots.
Helpful methods:
Daily 2–3 minute scalp massage
Essential oils (rosemary, peppermint) diluted in carrier oils
Professional scalp treatments (LED, NIR, oxygen therapy)
4. Avoid Tight Hairstyles
Constant tension from ponytails, braids, or extensions can weaken follicles (traction alopecia).
Use loose styles whenever possible.
5. Reduce Heat & Chemicals
Heat exposes hair to high temperatures that weaken the strands.
Try to:
Lower heat settings
Use heat protectant
Avoid frequent bleaching or straightening
Healthy hair grows from a healthy scalp environment.
6. Hydrate & Nourish
Drink enough water and maintain a balanced diet.
Scalp dryness often comes from dehydration.
7. Professional Treatments
A trichologist can help with deeper treatments such as:
Scalp detox
Ozone therapy
LED therapy
NIR growth stimulation
Oxygen infusion
These treatments re-balance your scalp and support hair growth.
