From selecting the right treatments to incorporating effective techniques, these professional insights will support your journey to fuller, healthier hair.
1. Use pH-balanced products
“Pay close attention to the ingredients in products. Healthy hair growth requires a balanced scalp. Hair growth will likely be compromised if you experience dry/flaky (dandruff) or an overly oily scalp. Seek out topical products that have been pH-balanced without harsh sulphates and silicones. This way, hair follicles can grow clearly without any blockage.” – Natasha Feros, Vida Glow Senior Innovation Manager
2. Maintain a healthy diet
“International dermatological societies agree that a healthy diet prevents premature hair loss. Furthermore, scientific reports confirm the link between inadequate diet and hair condition. Nutrient deficiencies may arise due to genetic disorders, medical conditions, or dietary practices. It was observed that a severe deficiency of Niacin (Vitamin B), Biotin (Vitamin B7) and Iron can cause chronic diffuse telogen hair loss and alopecia.” – Dr. Michael Rachalewski, Pharmaceris Scientific Expert
3. Protect your hair from the elements
“Using products that detoxify and protect the hair from outside elements such as UV and pollution. The Klorane Aquatic Mint Dry Shampoo will help protect the hair daily from external damage.” – Charlotte Wood, Klorane Training consultant for the UK & Ireland
4. Use a scalp massager
Using a scalp massager when shampooing can help stimulate blood to the hair follicles and remove toxins which will improve overall scalp health. Make sure to address any scalp conditions by seeing a trichologist or dermatologist rather than googling signs and symptoms as this can lead to misinformation, incorrect diagnosis, and treatment.” – Samantha Stewart, Hair Gain Trichologist
