How to recognize an unbalanced scalp and remedy it?

A healthy scalp is essential for strong, shiny hair. However, various factors can disrupt its natural balance, leading to discomfort. Identifying the signs of an unbalanced scalp is the first step to effectively addressing it.

Common Symptoms of an Unbalanced Scalp

• Dryness : A dry scalp can cause itching, irritation, and flaking. Causes include environmental factors, using harsh hair products, or washing too often.

• Excess sebum : An oily scalp is characterized by excessive sebum production, making hair heavy and oily shortly after washing. This can be due to hormonal imbalances, inadequate diet or the use of unsuitable products.

• Dandruff : Dandruff is flakes of dead skin that slough off the scalp. It can be dry or oily and is often accompanied by itching. An imbalance in the scalp microbiome is often the culprit.

• Itching : Persistent itching can result from dryness, excess oil, allergic reactions, or skin conditions such as seborrheic dermatitis.

Solutions to restore scalp balance

• Use suitable products : Choose shampoos and treatments specific to your scalp type. Gentle formulas, without sulfates or parabens, respect the natural balance of the scalp.

• Adopt a regular care routine : Wash your hair with a frequency that is appropriate for your scalp type. Washing too often can dry out the scalp, while washing too little can lead to a build-up of sebum and residue.

• Avoid external aggressions : Protect your scalp from aggressions such as pollution, UV rays and climatic variations. Wearing a hat or using protective products can help.

• Eat a balanced diet : A diet rich in vitamins and minerals supports scalp health. Omega-3 fatty acids, vitamins A, C and E, as well as zinc, are particularly beneficial.

• Manage stress : Stress can contribute to scalp and skin imbalances.
