Neglecting scalp hygiene can result in infections such as ringworm or fungal infections.

Leading to redness, swelling and even pus-filled sores.

5 Tips For A Healthy Scalp

1. Use a gentle shampoo

Clean your scalp regularly to remove dirt, oil and product buildup. 

Use a gentle, sulphate-free shampoo to avoid stripping your scalp of natural oils.

Massage the shampoo into your scalp to boost circulation and promote healthy hair growth.


2. Keep it hydrated

Drink plenty of water and use products that contain jojoba oil and glycerin to help maintain your moisture balance. 


3. Clean your hair tools

Dirty hairbrushes and combs can contain bacteria, which can cause scalp infections. 

4. Use a scalp brush

The bristles of a silicone scalp brush exfoliates the scalp by removing dead skin cells and excess oil.

This helps improve blood flow and keep the scalp clean.

Preventing issues like dandruff and flaking.


5. Clarify

If your hair is super greasy, then it's worth hitting the reset button by using a clarifying shampoo. 

This'll remove product buildup, excess oil, and impurities from the scalp and hair, leaving them clean and refreshed.

Make sure to deep condition post clarifying, as your hair will be super dry.
