Unlock the secret to healthier hair through scalp exfoliation. Why this overlooked self-care is a game changer

All of our skin, including the scalp, must be thoroughly cleaned and exfoliated. Our scalp's condition substantially impacts our hair's health and appearance. Proper scalp care, such as trichological exfoliation, should be part of our regular self-care routine. However, specific symptoms may signal an urgent need for scalp exfoliation.

Dandruff

Dandruff can be categorized into dry and oily, each with distinctive causes. Often associated with a sensitive scalp, dry dandruff may occur due to even minor changes in hair care routines, such as using a new product that leads to a skin reaction. Exfoliation can soothe an irritated scalp, thereby tackling the problem of dry dandruff.

Oily dandruff is caused by an excessive secretion of sebum, which clogs the sebaceous glands, leading to dandruff. Scalp exfoliation in this situation not only cleans the blocked glands but can also help regulate sebum production, effectively eliminating dandruff.

Excessive oiliness

Overproduction of sebum, or seborrhea, is also linked to excessive scalp oiliness. Scalp peels can help regulate sebum production, tackling the problem of excessive oiliness at its roots.

Hair loss

Hair loss can be attributed to multiple factors, ranging from an inappropriate diet and hormonal imbalances to seborrhea. Blocked sebaceous glands can weigh down your hair, weaken it, affect its bounce, and eventually lead to hair loss. In such cases, scalp exfoliation can cleanse these glands and improve hair health.

Itchy scalp

Scalp itchiness could be a symptom of dry scalp skin. Regular peeling can remove dead skin cells and moisturize the scalp, relieving itchiness.

Ineffectiveness of hair treatments

Suppose your hair treatments, conditioners, and rubs are not showing the desired results despite following the recommended usage. In that case, it may be due to the accumulation of dead skin on the scalp, barring the absorption of active ingredients from hair care products. Regular exfoliation paves the way for greater effectiveness of these cosmetic products.

Trichological peeling stimulates scalp circulation, improving blood supply and enhancing scalp oxygenation and nourishment. A well-nourished scalp can foster healthy, strong hair growth. This domino effect leads to several positive results.

Furthermore, trichological peeling, like exfoliation of other body parts, removes dead skin cells. Regular removal of excessive dead skin cells is essential as these can cause itchiness, an unsightly appearance, and dandruff and hinder nutrient absorption from hair care products.

Trichological peeling also aids in skin regeneration and balances sebum production. This results in hair and skin being less greasy and keeping fresh for longer. Decreased sebum overproduction alleviates scalp problems such as pimples and other imperfections.

By effectively removing residual styling product buildup from the scalp, trichological peeling contributes to better hair and scalp health, reducing the likelihood of dandruff and hair loss. Regular peels can eliminate the need for frequent shampooing if you wash your hair daily.

Apply the product directly to the dry scalp, separate the hair strands, and gently massage the skin with your fingertips. After massaging, let the peel sit for 2-3 minutes before rinsing off with warm water. Following this, you can shampoo and condition your hair. For optimal results, repeat this process 1-2 times a week.

Always remember to read the manufacturer's instructions on the product packaging.
