Why should you exfoliate your scalp?
Many hair problems, such as oily scalp, itchy or lifeless hair, stem from a build-up of oils and hair products. By regularly exfoliating your scalp, you stimulate circulation and give your hair follicles room to function optimally. This helps reduce dandruff, prevents blockages and gives your hair a fresh boost.
A scalp scrub works best in preparation for shampooing. After gently massaging and rinsing out the scrub, use a mild shampoo to completely clean your scalp and hair. This will ensure that all loosened impurities disappear and your hair feels fresh and airy.
Here's how to use a scalp scrub for best results
- Step 1: Make sure your hair and scalp are thoroughly wet before you start. This helps the scrub work in better.
- Step 2: Apply a small amount of scrub to your fingertips and spread it over your scalp.
- Step 3: Gently massage the scrub in with circular motions. Focus on the scalp and avoid the hair lengths.
- Step 4: Rinse your hair thoroughly with lukewarm water to remove all the scrub particles.
- Step 5: Wash your hair with a mild shampoo to remove the last remnants of dirt and scrub.
- Step 6: Finish with a conditioner or hair mask to moisturise your hair and scalp.
How to choose the best scalp scrub?
Not every hair scrub is the same. If you are prone to oily scalps, a deep cleansing scrub with charcoal or sea salt, for example, is a good choice. Do you have a sensitive or dry scalp? Then soothing ingredients like aloe vera or peppermint oil are ideal. Salicylic acid is a fine ingredient if you suffer a lot from flakes and a congested scalp, as it helps dissolve dead skin cells.
How often should you use a scalp scrub?
How often you should scrub your scalp depends on your hair type:
- Oily hair: once to twice a week to remove excess oil.
- Normal hair: once a week for a fresh and clean scalp.
- Dry or coloured hair: once every fortnight to prevent drying out.
- Sensitive scalp: once every fortnight and choose a mild scrub without harsh ingredients.
