Hair appearance plays an important role in a person’s self-confidence, and it can even affect health. If you want your hair to look and feel healthier, it starts with the scalp. Here are some healthy scalp care techniques to promote hair health. You might be surprised at some of our best practice recommendations for scalp hair growth.
Be Gentle on Your Scalp
It’s important to keep your scalp clean, but you might actually be washing your hair too often to keep your scalp healthy. When you shampoo your hair too frequently, you can strip off its natural oils, which then causes your scalp to produce more oils to keep your hair hydrated. Not only do you end up with oily-looking hair, but you’re also over-working your scalp. If you’ve been washing your hair too much, whether your scalp is overly dry or overly oily, washing your hair less can help.
When you do wash your hair, another way to nurture your scalp is to use gentler products. While the amazing fragrance from your current products may be pleasing to your nose, the extra chemicals may not be the best for your scalp. Some hair products can be detrimental to your hair’s health, especially those containing sulfates and alcohols. Choose products that prioritize scalp treatment, such as shampoos and conditioners with moisturizing properties. Be gentle on your scalp by washing your hair less and being careful what you put in your hair, and you may be surprised at how much healthier your hair looks and feels.
Treat Your Scalp With Medical-Grade Products
The scalp is one of the most sensitive areas on the body, and you might be treating yours too roughly. Instead, pamper your scalp with products designed to promote its well-being. When it comes to scalp care, a high-quality scalp scrub can be a powerful way to promote scalp hair growth. Scalp scrubs can be used to apply gentle exfoliating pressure to eliminate excess oil from the scalp’s surface while breaking down unwanted debris, including dead skin cells and other residue.
There are plenty of recommendations for scalp scrubs out there, DIY and otherwise, but the best practice is to get support from a specialist. That way, you get targeted solutions aimed at the needs of your scalp and hair to promote your individual scalp hair growth. Scalp scrubs tend to work best in conjunction with medical-grade products that target hair rejuvenation, growth, or regrowth. You may find success with a targeted serum that prioritizes your hair’s unique needs. It’s always best to try things on recommendation from a trusted source rather than experimenting with unknown products on your own. You may not even realize that you aren’t treating your scalp well unless you ask.
Consider Procedures for Hair Rejuvenation
In addition to products, there are procedures available to treat hair loss, improve hair health, and foster hair growth. In PRP therapy, for example, the patient’s plasma is injected into the scalp in a series of sessions. This increased blood supply to hair follicles makes for a healthier scalp, which helps improve volume, hair retention, and even regrowth. Everyone’s scalp care circumstances are unique, so be sure to reach out to our expert team for personalized solutions to meet your needs.
In hair transplant procedures performed using ARTAS technology, hair follicles are taken from one area of the scalp and grafted into another for permanent and natural-looking results. No stitches or scarring are left on the scalp, so this minimally invasive procedure offers a quick recovery time as well as permanent results.
