The scalp microbiome, a complex ecosystem of microbes, is the first line of defence against harmful pathogens, shielding the follicles and scalp from infection, toxins, irritation and hair damage.
Just like the skin, a healthy scalp microbiome requires a symbiosis of healthy bacteria and yeast, but can go awry when thrown off balance. Scalp serums cultivate a healthy scalp microbiome.
Hormonal changes during menopause, the menstrual cycle, and postpartum can disrupt scalp health. Reduced oestrogen leads to less collagen production and imbalanced oil levels, causing irritation. Sudden oestrogen drops during menstruation and postpartum phases can also result in oilier scalps, potentially leading to itching and flaking, especially for those prone to scalp issues. These hormonal shifts affect the scalp's oil balance and collagen synthesis, contributing to discomfort and irritation.
Stress increases the level of the hormone cortisol in our bodies. This has a direct effect on the health of the scalp and hair follicles. Cortisol disrupts the skin’s barrier function, as well as cell production, triggering flakes, inflammation and irritation on the scalp. Cortisol also compromises the body’s immune system, allowing yeast such as Candida or Malassezia to thrive and flare-up.
Under-shampooing can result in build-up, flakes and excess oils, leading to issues like folliculitis, dandruff, and sebum build-up. On the other hand, too-frequent washing can cause a dry and itchy scalp for some. This usually occurs when shampoo contains stripping ingredients such as sulphates, that strip the scalp and hair of their natural oils. Using waxy styling products, heavy oils, dry shampoo and products with film-forming ingredients such as silicones can produce a moisture-impenetrable coat on the hair and scalp, causing dryness and irritation.
Environmental factors like hard water, cold and dry climates, and excessive heat can trigger scalp irritation. Hard water, rich in minerals like calcium and magnesium, forms a film on the scalp, blocking moisture and follicles, leading to itchiness and inflammation. In cold and dry climates, low humidity causes itchiness, tightness, and flakes, worsening existing scalp conditions. Heat, especially from hot water, strips the scalp's protective lipids, breaks protein bonds in the cuticle, and dries the scalp, causing itching, flaking, oiliness, and congested follicles. These environmental elements disrupt scalp health and contribute to various forms of irritation and discomfort.
Eczema, also called dermatitis, is the umbrella name for a group of conditions that cause rash-like scalp irritation. Psoriasis is a chronic, non-contagious inflammatory and autoimmune skin condition that can affect the skin, including the scalp. It is caused by the rapid overproduction and build-up of skin cells, in which the immune system mistakenly sends signals to these skin cells to multiply too quickly. Scalp psoriasis can affect the scalp, hairline, and may even creep up the nape of the neck and around the ears.
We recommend using the Clarifying Scalp Scrub 1-2 times per week. This will help break down the oils and build-up that shampoo misses, allowing you to extend your hair wash cycle while also ensuring your scalp remains balanced, clean and healthy.
Yes, the Clarifying Scalp Scrub is suitable for all scalp types. With biodegradable, non-abrasive jojoba beads, it bids farewell to flaky dead skin, product buildup and debris while ample infusions of shea butter and argan oil bestow moisture and nourishment to sensitive scalp-skin.
We recommend applying the scrub to a wet scalp in the shower, before cleansing with the Strengthening Silk Protein Shampoo.
All products are dermatologically tested, suitable to use during pregnancy and breastfeeding and cruelty free.
