Solutions for your every hair care concern.

Oily Scalp

An oily scalp is caused by over-reactive sebaceous glands on the scalp. The oil attracts dirt more easily, produces dandruff, and makes your hair stick together. In the worst cases, the sebum glands clog the hair roots and may cause excessive hair loss and dandruff.

Prevention:
Don’t brush your hair too much. Overbrushing can cause the hair follicles to produce more oil.
Avoid vigorously rubbing at your scalp and use heat carefully.
Choose your hair products carefully. Some ingredients may lead to scalp irritation or build-up, which can make oily hair worse.

Dermatitis

Dealing with dermatitis that affects the scalp and hair can be uncomfortable and distressing, as it often leads to skin inflammation, redness, and itching in these areas. Dermatitis related to the scalp and hair can have various causes, and effectively addressing it requires a well-rounded approach to hair and skincare.

Causes of Scalp and Hair Dermatitis:
Scalp and hair dermatitis can result from several factors, including:

+ Contact Dermatitis: An allergic reaction to certain hair care products or irritants that come into contact with the scalp and hair.
+ Seborrheic Dermatitis: A common condition that affects the scalp and other oily areas of the body, resulting in redness, scaling, and excessive oil production in the scalp.
+ Atopic Dermatitis (Scalp Eczema): A form of eczema that affects the scalp, leading to dry, itchy patches, often associated with allergies or genetic factors.

Prevention and Care for Scalp and Hair Dermatitis:
To effectively manage dermatitis affecting the scalp and hair, consider these preventive measures and care tips:

+ Identify Triggers: Determine the specific triggers or irritants causing your scalp and hair dermatitis and take steps to avoid them, such as switching to hypoallergenic hair care products.
+ Gentle Hair Care: Use mild, fragrance-free hair care products and gentle cleansers to minimize irritation to the scalp.
+ Moisturize Scalp: Apply scalp-specific moisturizers to keep your scalp hydrated and reduce dryness, a common factor in scalp dermatitis.
+ Avoid Scratching: Refrain from scratching the affected areas on your scalp, as it can worsen symptoms and lead to infections.
+ Stress Management: Practice stress-reduction techniques like meditation and relaxation exercises, as stress can exacerbate scalp and hair dermatitis symptoms.

Recommended Treatments for Scalp and Hair Dermatitis:
If you are looking to address scalp and hair dermatitis concerns, consider the following treatment options:

+ Topical Steroid Creams: Prescription or over-the-counter steroid creams can help reduce inflammation and itching associated with scalp dermatitis.

Hair loss

Hair loss (alopecia) is a prevalent dermatological course and it has an impact on both females and males of all ages. For centuries, hair has been the most important sign for the females. Healthy hair is an essential factor for physical well‐being and females can show their charm, beauty and personal power with healthy hair. That is why hair loss can cause psychological problems for women rather than for men.

Prevention:
Low-level laser therapy, or LLLT, is a process by which lasers (at a low grade, obviously) stimulate cellular growth in the scalp so that follicles grow stronger, thicker, and faster. It helps send dormant follicles into the anagen phase of growth too.

Dandruff

Dandruff is a common condition that causes the skin on the scalp to flake. Shampooing often enough can keep oils at bay, helping with dandruff symptoms. While you are at it, try to resist the urge to scratch your scalp. The itchiness is initially caused by irritation from dandruff, but scratching will increase irritation and lead to a vicious cycle.

Prevention:
A diet that provides enough zinc, B vitamins and certain types of fats may help prevent dandruff. Develop a hair and scalp care routine that suits you. If you tend to have an oily scalp, daily shampooing may help prevent dandruff. Gently massage your scalp to loosen flakes.

Itchy Scalp and Irritations

Dealing with an itchy scalp and irritations can be uncomfortable and bothersome. Itchy scalp can be caused by various factors, including dryness, dandruff, fungal infections, or sensitivity to hair products. To alleviate the discomfort and maintain a healthy scalp, it is essential to address the root causes and follow a proper hair care routine.

Causes of Itchy Scalp and Irritations:
Itchy scalp and irritations can result from:

+ Dry Scalp: Lack of moisture can lead to dry and itchy scalp, causing discomfort and flakiness.
+ Dandruff: An oily or dry scalp can contribute to the development of dandruff, leading to itching and irritation.
+ Fungal Infections: Fungal conditions like scalp ringworm can cause redness, itchiness, and inflammation.
+ Allergic Reactions: Some individuals may experience scalp irritations due to sensitivity to certain hair care products or ingredients.

Prevention and Care for Itchy Scalp and Irritations:
+ Keep Scalp Clean: Wash your hair regularly using a gentle and sulfate-free shampoo to keep the scalp clean and free from impurities.
+ Moisturize Scalp: Apply a moisturizing conditioner to your hair and scalp to hydrate and soothe dryness.
+ Use Anti-Dandruff Shampoo: If dandruff is the cause of itchiness, use an anti-dandruff shampoo with active ingredients like zinc pyrithione or ketoconazole to control flaking and relieve itchiness.
+ Avoid Allergens: Identify and avoid hair care products that may trigger allergic reactions or irritations.

Frizzy hair

Frizzy hair is the effect of different individual hair fibers running in multiple directions, which is why frizzy hair has a rough feel to it. As a result, hair appears dry and frizzy instead of smooth and defined. Curly hair can be prone to frizz, but certain hairstyles work to tame frizz and define your beautiful, curly hair. The amount of damage to the hair leads to frizz. For instance, split ends, cuticle loss and breakage gives hair that frizzy look because the hair fibers aren’t uniform or aligned.

Prevention:
Choose a sulphate-free shampoo and always use a conditioner to prevent your hair cuticle from absorbing excess moisture, keeping it frizz-free. Style your hair with low heat settings on your tools to avoid damage and achieve a smooth, sleek hairstyle without frizz.

Greying

Greying of hair is a normal component of the ageing process. Millions of hair follicles on your skin contain a pigment called melanin. As you age, these hair follicles start losing out their natural pigment, resulting in grey hair.

Prevention:
Ensure you get enough B12, vitamin D, and antioxidants by eating plenty of salmon, beef, olive oil, and vegetables. Stay as stress-free as possible to keep your hair from falling out; otherwise, your hair may lose pigment and turn grey when it grows back. A recent study in 2020 proved that stress does indeed cause grey hair. We recommend meditation and regular exercise to reduce stress.

Thinning Hair

Thinning hair may be caused by lifestyle habits, genetics, or both. Certain medical conditions may also lead to thinning hair.

Prevention:
Maintain a healthy routine and ensure that your diet includes the recommended amounts of vitamins and minerals. If you are diagnosed with a scalp infection, it is important to strictly follow the medication schedule prescribed by your dermatologist. Use a silk or satin pillowcase, as it causes less friction, letting your hair slide across the pillow rather than being pushed across, which is the case with cotton pillow covers. Stress management in the form of exercise or meditation puts the mind and body in a state of relaxation which can control the effects of hair loss. Using technologies Low-level laser therapy, or LLLT, is a process by which lasers (at a low grade, obviously) stimulate cellular growth in the scalp so that follicles grow stronger, thicker, and faster.

Hairline

Hairlines are defined in men and women by several characteristics, such as shape and height. A receding hairline can also begin above the temples, but hair in the middle may stay closer to the forehead. This V-shaped hair growth in front is often called a “widow’s peak”.

Prevention:
Using technologies Low-level laser therapy, or LLLT, is a process by which lasers (at a low grade, obviously) stimulate cellular growth in the scalp so that follicles grow stronger, thicker, and faster.
Hair transplants is an effective treatment in the men’s health sector and an excellent long-term solution to existing baldness.
