WHAT IS IT?


A sensitive and irritated scalp is prone to redness, itching and feeling hot, so it is particularly fragile and uncomfortable, susceptible to overreact to products generally considered harmless to most people.

WHAT DOES
IT FEEL LIKE?

A scalp prone to inflammation and redness, often with intense itching and feeling excessively hot. Sometimes, there is numbness or throbbing, or even pain in the most affected areas. At times, it is also possible to visually detect a sensitive and irritated scalp.

WHAT
CAUSES IT?

Stress, fatigue, physical and mental tiredness can be factors that trigger heightened scalp reactions. Sunburn or styling and drying tools burns, insect bites, skin problems (psoriasis), or even an inappropriate product removal when washing, are the most common causes of this problem.

FACTORS TO CONSIDER

Try to solve the triggering situation, rest, avoid stress and stay active.

Make a daily effort not to scratch! The discomfort tends to increase and you will inevitably touch your hair more. The need to wash it more often will increase, starting a cycle that tends to worsen your discomfort.

WHAT SHOULD I DO?


You can restore the smoothness and comfort your scalp deserves. Find your scalp balance, use soft substances, and try to get enough rest and relaxation. Here are some tips for taking better care of your hair and, above all, your scalp.

1. Choose a dermoprotective shampoo so that you can rediscover your scalp’s balance and comfort. The right amount of gentle cleansers and emollient ingredients protects the skin barrier, for a smooth and well-cared for scalp that will be at the base of a visibly healthy hair.

2. Avoid using very hot water when washing; instead, use lukewarm water. Very hot water can dehydrate and irritate the scalp, leaving it red and prone to inflammation, and can also cause burns on your scalp. Finish rinsing your hair with cold water to close the cuticle layer and prevent/minimise hair shaft damage.

3. Do not use products that may worsen your discomfort. If you are a “regular” when it comes to aesthetic-cosmetic procedures, find your rebalance first. Do not add products other than those you are usually comfortable with.
