Healthy hair is the foundation to beautiful hair, no matter your hair type. While often we focus on the lengths of our hair for styling purposes, the scalp deserves just as much attention for optimal hair health.
The scalp is a vital component of hair growth where follicles produce the hair strands that define our look. It’s essential to understand that a healthy scalp microbiome is important for strong, vibrant hair. Scalp health can affect all hair types, from straight to curly and understanding the scalp’s connection to healthy hair will bridge the gap to helping you achieve your hair goals.
1. Cleanse regularly
Cleansing your scalp regularly is essential for removing buildup of oils, dead skin cells and product residue. A clean scalp ensures that hair follicles are not clogged, allowing for optimal hair growth and longevity.
Using a mild shampoo for your hair type like Goldie Locks® Signature Shampoo prevents the scalp from becoming dry and irritated.
Cleanse deeper. Environmental factors like UV rays, pollution and harsh weather can damage you scalp and hair so opt for a once a week reset with a gentle yet harder working shampoo like a detox or clarifying shampoo.
2. Rebalance your scalp
Beyond a deeper cleanse or exfoliation an important and often overlooked step in scalp care is rebalancing the microbiome by way of probiotics found in Scalp Serum. This powerful serum not only anchors hair follicles to visibly provide longer, thicker looking hair but it allows the scalp environment to thrive and maintain balance.
3. Supplementation
A balanced diet rich in vitamins and minerals is essential for a healthy scalp. Hair supplements can provide the necessary nutrients that may be missing from your diet. Look for supplements that support your whole body as well as providing key nutrients to support hair growth. These often contain biotin, vitamin E and collagen. Just be sure that you allow the right amount of time before you see results, which typically start after that three month mark.
Caring for your scalp is the foundation for healthy hair. By following these tips, you can ensure your scalp remains clean, hydrated and balanced providing the optimal environment for you hair to thrive. Incorporate products that compliment your natural microbiome and your routine to ensure you boost your hair and scalp health. A healthy scalp leads to resilient beautiful hair!
