How Important Is a Healthy Scalp?

Maintaining a healthy scalp is imperative for positive and productive hair growth. Our scalp is an extension of our skin. Lotions, and conditioning body washes packed with buffers leave a tremendous buildup. Periodically we will use exfoliating gloves, or sugar scrubs to remove this accumulation of products and dead skin cells to expose the newest layer of skin. We essentially should be providing the same care and attention to our scalp.

We encounter elements daily that contribute in creating this layer of buildup on our scalp that isn't always visible to the naked scalp. In addition to our environmental exposure; emollients, creams, and scalp oils leave behind trace residues that are not always removed with traditional shampoo alone. Over time these products will build a layer on the scalp and prevent the hair follicles from receiving the proper nutrients to grow. In some cases this buildup will move further up the hair shaft and begin to create a casting around the follicle that prohibits proper growth. A proper scalp exfoliation to remove these buildups aid in maintaining healthy hair and scalp for productive hair growth.

Schedule a consult with a hair care professional to discuss home maintenance packages to enhance the health of your hair.
