Healthy Scalp Tips with Brown Sugar Hair Salon Dubai

We caught up with the team at Brown Sugar Hair Salon in Dubai for their top tips on how to care for your scalp…

Shampoo Regularly

Washing your hair every day is ideal for most people, however if you suffer with scalp issues or damaged hair, you may need to wash less frequently. Which shampoo you choose is as equally important as how often you use it. It is recommended that you shop for brands that have natural ingredients and are suited to your specific scalp problems.

Eat Right

A well-balanced diet rich in fruits and vegetables is always recommended for a healthy lifestyle and will help supply the scalp with the raw materials necessary to produce new healthy cells. Do your best to eat at least two to four servings of fruits and three to five servings of vegetables daily. To ensure that your body has an adequate supply of protein, which is necessary both for scalp care and a healthy head of hair, you could also include two to three servings of meat, poultry, fish, eggs, and nuts.

Exfoliate

Exfoliate your scalp on a regular basis, as this helps boost skin cell turnover. If you suffer from dry skin or psoriasis, you may need to exfoliate two or three times per week; otherwise, exfoliating once a week is generally adequate to remove dead skin cells from the surface of your scalp.

Maintain Hair Moisture

When you shower and bathe, avoid exposing your scalp to hot water whenever possible. Instead, use lukewarm water for rinsing, which allows more of the natural sebum necessary for moisturizing the tissue to remain on your scalp. Once or twice per week, skip blow-drying and allow your hair to naturally air dry to give the skin on your scalp a break from the drying heat of your hairdryer.

Scalp Massage

Keep the circulation going in your scalp by massaging the skin once a week, using gentle circular motions. The skin on your scalp is an intricate network of blood vessels that carry oxygen and vital nutrients to the tissue. For the ultimate indulgence, consider getting a professional scalp massage.

Chemical Treatments

Chemical treatments like perming, straightening or hair colouring can improve the look of your hair and boost your confidence, however chemicals used in these treatments can sometimes dry out and irritate your scalp. It is advisable to have them performed by a professional to limit damage, and ensure you follow the recommendations for how often to touch up. Also, during any chemical treatment, notify your stylist immediately for signs of irritation like burning or itching, should they occur
