Your scalp is like a nightclub with all kinds of weirdos coming to take their share of space on the dance floor and the limited seats at the bar.
As much as we take care of our skin and hair, our scalp often gets neglected. But did you know that your scalp can be the root cause of your hair troubles? Dandruff, hair loss, oily scalp, and itchiness are some common issues plaguing your scalp. In this blog, Grace & Glamour will discuss these problems in detail and learn about the different treatment options available to address them.
Snowflakes Without the Snow
Dandruff – flaky, itchy, and dry skin on the scalp, caused by yeast-like fungal growth. It has many factors causing it – name it! Be it stress (when are we ever not under stress?! It has become common human nature by now! *huffing and puffing), or hormonal imbalances (Yeah, our busy life tends to cause disbalance of chemicals inside..ha….*Inner peace*), seasons, dry days, wet days, food, too much oiling, too less oiling, blab la bla… Grace & Glamour team identifies with your frustration with dandruff. Believe us, we all sit on the same side of the turbulent river.
As for treatment, mostly home remedies and medicated shampoos containing ketoconazole or coal tar do the trick. These shampoos work by reducing the production of skin cells and controlling the growth of the fungus that causes dandruff. If these work for you for long periods of time, then congrats! You’re one of the lucky ones! For bigger & more stubborn dandruff bullies, prescription-strength shampoos may be necessary. In such cases, it’s best to keep in contact with derma-specialists at Grace & Glamour.
When You’re Suffering from Hair Deficiency
Sometimes, we wish we were aliens. They never have to worry about hair loss or standing out over hair loss! Fat people and people with hair loss are nodding vehemently, we know! Suddenly, your diet, lifestyle, and hair deficiency are everybody’s personal problem and latest agenda, isn’t it?
BUT hair loss CAN be genetic problem too! Aside from stress (always on the list of all human diseases and disorders, haha!), or nutritional deficiencies, oh and hormonal imbalances (can’t miss the molecules, right?). As for possible treatment options Grace & Glamour offers you, Aminexil and PRP come highly recommended by our haircare experts. Aminexil is a topical treatment that helps to strengthen the hair follicles, while PRP involves injecting a concentrated serum of the patient’s own blood into the scalp to promote hair growth.
Aminexil is a clinically-proven ingredient that can be found in several hair care products. It strengthens the hair roots and increases blood circulation to the scalp, hence preventing hair loss. It is often used in conjunction with other hair loss treatments such as minoxidil and finasteride.
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is a relatively new treatment for hair loss. It involves extracting platelet-rich plasma from your blood and injecting it into the scalp. PRP contains growth factors that stimulate hair growth and can be an effective treatment for hair loss.
All Oiled-up
So much oil in your scalp that you even tend to avoid oiling and even shampoo almost all days of the week? Well, Grace & Glamour has experts who can help you! An oily scalp is a condition that is caused by excessive sebum production. It can lead to greasy hair, scalp acne, and even hair loss. You may also be more prone to dandruff. One of the treatments for oily scalp that our dermacare professionals often recommend is to use a gentle, sulphate-free shampoo that is specifically formulated for oily hair. Medicated shampoos can be effective in treating an oily scalp. It’s important to use a gentle shampoo that won’t strip your scalp of its natural oils, as over-washing can actually make the problem worse. You may also want to consider using a scalp toner or serum containing ingredients like salicylic acid or tea tree oil, which can help to regulate oil production. In addition, regular exfoliation of the scalp can also help to remove excess oil and dirt. Grace & Glamour pros also tip to keep your scalp clean and avoid using too many hair products that can clog your pores.
For the Love of Scratch
Itchiness is another common scalp issue, and it can be caused by several factors. Dry scalp, dandruff, and fungal infections can all lead to itchiness.
Medicated shampoos, moisturizers, and anti-fungal treatments can all help alleviate itchiness. But to effectively address itchiness, it is important to identify the underlying cause of the condition and treat it accordingly. Using a gentle shampoo that is free of harsh chemicals and fragrances can help soothe an itchy scalp caused by dryness, while an antifungal treatment may be necessary for more serious infections. For allergic causes, it’s important to identify and avoid your triggers.
In conclusion, our scalp is an essential part of our hair care routine, and taking care of it will help to prevent many hair troubles for you. Grace & Glamour seconds that!
