Our Scalp Ecosystem
Just like the rest of our bodies, our scalps contain a specific ecosystem of bacteria known as the microbiome. The scalp microbiome helps to keep the scalp environment balanced, maintaining optimum conditions for new hair growth. Research has also shown that the microbiome may support our immune system and perform other functions that we don't yet fully understand.
“A healthy scalp environment can help promote hair growth, prevent hair loss, and can keep your hair healthy, so it looks and feels amazing,” says Stevens. If you have a particularly greasy, dry and flaky, or itchy scalp, the balance of your scalp environment may be disrupted. Some conditions, such as Malassezia globosa (a fungus that feeds on the sebum on our scalps), will disrupt the microbiome. Other common scalp issues include dandruff, sunburn, and irritated scalps caused by product build-up. All these issues can cause a dry, flaky scalp - which can lead to poor hair growth or even hair loss. But there are plenty of ways you can combat symptoms of an unhealthy scalp, including a proper care routine that prevents damage, product build-up, and maintains the overall health of this delicate area of skin.
How Can I Keep My Scalp Healthy?
Unless you have an existing medical condition, many of the lifestyle measures that keep the rest of your body healthy will also keep your scalp and hair in good condition, too. To maintain a good scalp condition, keep these tips in mind:
Drink plenty of water to keep your skin (including your scalp) hydrated.
Eat a balanced diet rich with nutrients that are key to keeping your hair and scalp healthy.
Try to maintain a healthy lifestyle by adding exercise to your weekly routine.
Wash your hair regularly. Gently massage your scalp with your fingertips as you shampoo. Remember, a good haircare routine is important for a healthy scalp and hair. Shop Nioxin here
Avoid using harsh chemical treatments on your hair or scalp too often, particularly if you have sensitive skin.
Treat dandruff and other conditions promptly to return your scalp back to normal as soon as possible. Identifying symptoms of scalp conditions early will allow you to act fast and stop the problem before it gets any worse. Try to make checking your scalp a regular habit. Learn more and shop here
Get regular scalp facials. Scalp exfoliation revitalizes and regenerates delicate skin by removing scalp build-up and debris. Nioxin's Scalp Dermabrasion In-Salon Treatment is recommended every 30-45 days to keep your scalp in tip-top condition.
STYLIST TIPS
Always start by brushing your ends before going up to the mid-lengths and then the roots. This will reduce hair breakage.
If you think you may have an underlying issue that is contributing to damage or poor scalp condition, consult your dermatologist for a diagnosis and to seek the best treatment for your scalp concerns.
Remember, a healthy scalp is the best environment for healthy hair growth. Browse Nioxin's range of hair care treatments, including shampoo, conditioner, leave-in treatments, and supplements for thinning hair to make every day a great hair day.
