Why You Need a Scalp Detox

Summer is hard on the hair. Hot temperatures and humidity can make hair frizzy and unmanageable.  Summer activities can be damaging to your locks, from time spent basking in the sun to swimming in chlorine or saltwater. During the summer, you get all kinds of build-up in your hair from sweat, products, chlorine, and more.

Heat and Humidity

The scalp can become oily and covered in buildup during the summer for a variety of reasons. The heat and humidity can cause the sebaceous glands to produce more oil, which can lead to an increase in sebum and sweat on the scalp. This can create the perfect environment for bacteria and fungus to grow, which can then lead to scalp irritation and dandruff.

Product Buildup

One of the main reasons that the scalp can get buildup from products is because of the way that many products are formulated. Typically, shampoos and other hair care products contain a variety of different ingredients that can leave behind residue on the scalp. This residue can then build up over time, leading to a number of problems such as an itchy scalp, dandruff, and even hair loss.

Chlorine

When chlorine is added to water, it creates an environment that is hostile to many microorganisms, including those that live on the scalp. In fact, chlorine is so effective at killing bacteria and other microorganisms that it is often used in hospital settings to disinfect surfaces and equipment. While the presence of chlorine in water can be beneficial in terms of preventing the spread of disease, it can also have a negative impact on the health of the scalp. When chlorine comes into contact with the skin, it can strip away the natural oils that protect the scalp and keep it healthy. This can lead to dryness, irritation, and inflammation.

Like our body, our scalp absorbs everything we apply to it. And over time, they build up and wreak havoc on the scalp's delicate ecosystem. For this reason, you need a detox treatment to completely get rid of all the harmful toxins and restore the balance.

Scalp Detox treatment works overtime on the scalp, to wash away all impurities, pollution, and build-up so your follicles are revitalized, balanced, and moisturized.

Good hair starts with a good, healthy scalp.
