HOW DO YOU RECOGNIZE SENSITIVE SCALP?
If your scalp is constantly itching and tingling, these symptoms will eventually become a problem. This is often due to a sensitive scalp, which those affected perceive as a great burden and torment. It also manifests itself in red spots, feelings of tension and dandruff, and in extreme cases even hair loss. The symptoms usually vary in severity and depend on many different factors. In the long term, the constant burning and tingling make everyday life a real ordeal.
WHAT ARE THE CAUSES OF DRY SCALP?
The reasons for sensitive scalps are very varied and differ greatly from one another. This includes incorrect hair care, including the use of overly aggressive shampoos with incompatible ingredients. Harsh cleaning substances attack the scalp's natural acid mantle, making it dry and sensitive. In addition, dyeing your hair too often not only puts strain on the hair, but also on the scalp. Furthermore, hard combs and brushes with bristles that are too sharp can cause serious damage to the scalp. Braids that are too tight and tight can also irritate the hair roots and lead to a sensitive scalp. In addition, the hot air when blow-drying your hair can dry out the scalp. But skin diseases such as fungi, neurodermatitis and psoriasis can also damage the scalp and cause a burning, itchy sensation. Another cause can be long-term stress, either physical or mental, as well as hormonal fluctuations. In addition, irritation of the scalp can occur due to an unbalanced diet. Tension in the neck, regular headaches and migraines can also cause a sensitive scalp.
WHAT HELPS WITH AN IRRITATED SCALP?
First, your hair and scalp need a break from all the factors that may be causing it. Only wash your hair every two to three days with lukewarm water, then let it air dry without using a hot blow-dryer. It is better to avoid dyeing your hair with chemicals and instead use natural products from the health food store. Avoid combing and brushing your hair too vigorously, as well as wearing your hair too tightly. Always wear a protective hat in the blazing sun. It is important to eat a balanced and healthy diet with plenty of variety. Cope with too much stress with meditative training methods.
WHAT SOOTHES INFLAMMATED SCALP?
With the right hair care, including gentle cosmetic products, inflamed scalps can be soothed for the long term. A mild shampoo supports sensitive scalps and restores the pH balance. The Balance Eco Shampoo for sensitive and dry scalps is ideal for this, as it both cleanses and nourishes.
HOW CAN I TREAT DRY SCALP?
If your scalp is extremely dry, regular massages are a good idea, and you can do them yourself. Treatments by experienced specialists are particularly relaxing and beneficial. The gentle touch stimulates blood circulation, which promotes the body's own healing power. In addition, nourishing oils are beneficial for dry scalps, as they can prevent the feeling of tension and any redness that may occur. When the scalp is no longer so tight, it becomes less sensitive. In addition, the additional moisture reduces the formation of new dandruff. In combination with the Balance Anti Dandruff Shampoo for flaky scalp, these unsightly symptoms can be successfully combated.
