Calming a Dry Itchy Scalp

The 5 Step Cycle to Calm Scalp Irritation.

5 step cycle to calm an itchy scalp.

Why is my scalp so dry and itchy? Your scalp is your skin. Just like the skin on your face, aggressors like pollution, bacteria, excess oils, and harsh cleansers can cause scalp irritation. That could mean an itchy scalp, oil overproduction, and ultimately blocked hair growth. Feeding and balancing your scalp’s ecosystem is paramount for healthy hair. Read on to discover the habits and ingredients that can bring your scalp back into healthy balance.

Step One. Increase Blood Circulation in the Scalp.

Circulating blood brings nutrients and takes away waste, increasing scalp vitality. Nothing beats a good scalp massage for increasing circulation, though buzz-worthy ingredients like rosemary and green tea also stimulate the scalp. Rich with rosemary and eucalyptus, Cubica® CLARIFY shampoo was formulated to deeply and gently cleanse the scalp, stimulate circulation, and restore balance..

Step Two. Calm Scalp Inflammation.

Scalp inflammation occurs whenever your scalp is unusually red or itchy, or when it produces a burning sensation. Environmental factors are often to blame for itchiness, irritation, dryness, and flakiness. Seek out soothing ingredients like burdock root and aloe to provide instant relief by calming inflammation, redness and itchiness.

Step Three. Moisturize a Dry Scalp.

Hydration is the key to scalp health. When your scalp is dry, it responds by overproducing sebum and making hair oily at the root. Tho solve this, people often use shampoos with drying detergents to remove the excess oils, but that actually leads to more dryness and the cycle continues. Just as you would moisturize your face, you want to treat your scalp with the same luxury. Look for nourishing ingredients like argan oil, shea, and glycerin to moisturize and help bring oil production back into balance. SEVEN Gazar® HYDRATE shampoo & conditioner is perfect for restoring your hair’s natural moisture levels.

Step Four. Protect the Scalp.

Antioxidants are essential for the health and youthful appearance of your skin as they fight cellular damage and slow the aging process. Ingredients like superoxide dismutase, green tea, and rosemary all pull their weight to fight against free radical damage. Try our Kente® BOND hair mask for a deep conditioning treatment with key antioxidant ingredients like superoxide dismutase.

Step Five. Promote and Stimulate Hair Growth.

Hair growth is complex and requires a full metabolic process to create the keratin protein. Biotin and the silica found in horsetail herb, and essential fatty acids all support fullness and healthy growth of hair. Our Satara® OPTI biotin supplements fuses biotin with powerful botanicals designed to support the growth of hair.
