This post is about Healthy Hair and Scalp Tips.
1. Clean your scalp
Sometimes, we forget that a healthy scalp is the key to healthy hair. It is essential to clean your scalp and remove dead cells that can cause dryness or inflammation.
You can use a scalp massager to promote circulation and a scalp scrub to remove impurities. You can use these products once or twice a week.
Here are a few recommendations:
Sephora Collection Silicone Scalp Massager $12, 15 CAD
Fable & Mane SahaScalp Wild Ginger Purifying Scrub, $34, 45 CAD
2. Be gentle with your scalp
Now we are talking about a clean scalp; it is also important to be gentle; if you don’t have a scalp massager, you can also use your fingertips, not your nails. Remember, like our skin, the scalp is susceptible, and we must try it with love and care. Do not be harsh; use gentle circular motions; the massage should be relaxing, not painful.
3. Do not overwash your hair
Overwashing your hair causes dryness because you remove the natural oil your scalp produces. I know it is tentative to wash your hair daily, especially if you work out, but remember, the oil the hair has from the sweat is good, so instead of washing it, use a dry shampoo in the most oily areas.
It’s recommended to wash your hair once or twice a week.
Here is a clean and affordable dry shampoo:
Klorane Oil-Control Dry Shampoo with Nettle, $20, 16,99 CAD.
4. Include hair repair or balancing treatments
Before washing your hair, try to include a moisturizing or repair treatment to balance and improve your hair structure. These products provide the moisture your scalp needs to balance oil production.
Here is an excellent recommendation:
Briogeo Scalp Revival Charcoal + Tea Tree Scalp Treatment Serum, $32, 42 CAD
5. Use microfiber towels
Microfiber towels are excellent for reducing dry time since they absorb more water and reduce frizz, breaks, and tangle.
Here is a great affordable option:
YoulerTex Microfiber Hair, $12.96, 22 CAD
6. Use a heat protectant
Always use heat protectants when styling your hair. These products add a barrier to your hair, keeping moisture locked. At the same time, heat protectors prevent hair breakage and color fading and protect the hair from heat damage.
A fantastic recommendation:
OUAI Detangling and Frizz Fighting Leave-In Conditioner, $30, 39 CAD
