THE SECRETS TO MAINTAINING A HEALTHY SCALP

The importance of the microbiome to the health of your scalp If you’re looking for the secret to great hair, you need to start with the scalp. Like the skin on our face, the scalp is made up of oil and sweat glands and an invisible ecosystem of microorganisms: the microbiome. If this becomes unbalanced, it can become irritated and more prone to oiliness, sensitivity and dandruff. This is why it’s important to ensure you’re paying just as much attention to your scalp as you are your hair – especially when it comes to addressing a range of everyday concerns such as greasiness and dandruff. So what’s the best way of caring for your scalp and how can you tell if you have a problem?

Oily hair
If you find that your hair becomes greasy quickly, you may have an unbalanced microbiome that is creating excess levels of sebum. You can help to combat this excess sebum with a shampoo such as Vichy’s Dercos Oil Control Shampoo. It has an exclusive anti-sebum complex and purifying gel texture that helps to rebalance your scalp while leaving it feeling fresh with a marine and mint fragrance. Once your scalp is cleansed and clean, you should start to notice a big difference in how healthy your hair looks and bounciness and shine will be restored.

Dandruff causes and treatment
Dandruff is caused by an increase in bad bacteria and can be a tell-tell sign that your scalp microbiome has become unbalanced. The most effective way of addressing this scalp concern is with a targeted shampoo such as Dercos’ Anti-Dandruff Shampoo. It is enriched with Selenium DS and Cohesyl and helps to purify and soothe the scalp reducing flakes after just one wash. Detoxing the hair from product, sweat and sebum can also help to reduce dandruff. The Dercos Micropeel Shampoo contains salicylic acid, LHA and apricot kernel micro beads to exfoliate away impurities such as this, leaving the scalp feeling fresh, clear and soothed.

Dry and damaged hair
If your hair is feeling dry and damaged, you may not immediately think of the scalp as the cause. But, like the skin on our face, the scalp can be affected by aggressors in the environment which over time can weaken its barrier function and affect the overall health and vitality of the hair. Vichy's Dercos Kera Solutions Shampoo uses keratin bonding technology to replenish damaged hair during styling and colouring. Formulated with allantoin known for its soothing properties, this shampoo respects sensitive scalp and leaves hair looking nourished and silky.

Hair loss and thinning
There are many reasons for hair thinning and loss such as the menopause, pregnancy, stress and hormone imbalances. But no matter the cause of the problem, you can help to improve it by addressing any visible signs of imbalances within your scalp’s microbiome. Dercos’ Aminexil Pro for Women is a targeted treatment that works to create a healthy scalp environment and help maintain the density of thinning hair and leaves hair feeling more resistant.

WHAT CAUSES HAIR LOSS IN MEN AND WOMEN? Get to the root of the cause of your hair loss.

While you may think of hair loss as mainly affecting men, whether it’s from stress, hormones or even giving birth, hair loss can affect us all and be triggered by several different factors. Here are the causes, types and potential ways to improve the thickness of thinning and fragile hair.

Alopecia
Although it’s more commonly associated with men, anyone can suffer from hair loss – whether it’s on your head or your entire body, only temporary or permanent. While hereditary hair loss as a normal part of ageing is the most common cause of baldness and hair loss in men, hormonal changes, stress, weight loss or other medical conditions can also cause hair to shed or thin for both men and women.

Postpartum shedding
Many women find that thick, lustrous locks are one of the perks of pregnancy, thanks to higher levels of hair-friendly oestrogen in your body to help the baby grow and develop. It’s quite common for the average person to lose around 100 hairs a day without really noticing. Your pregnancy hormones keep those hairs from falling out though. After you give birth or stop breastfeeding, however, your high oestrogen levels return to normal and so does your hair, shedding this extra hair usually in the first six months postpartum.

Styling damage
However you style your hair, whether it’s blow drying, straightening or curling, if you’ve used a lot of heat, you could have caused some damage or breakage. Chemicals used to colour your hair can also strip it of its protective coating making it more fragile and thinner, while super-tight hairstyles can cause traction alopecia after prolonged stress to the hair follicle. Men can also experience this if they twist their beards too tightly.

To undo any unwanted damage and prevent any further hair loss, change your hairstyle regularly, taking a break between weaves and extensions, keep heat settings low when using styling tools and regularly use conditioning treatments to strengthen and hydrate your hair.

Menopausal hair loss in women
While pregnancy locks benefit from an oestrogen boost, during the menopause levels of oestrogen and progesterone decrease (both of which are responsible for hair growth) and can lead to hair loss and thinning. You may find your hair also breaks more easily as it is finer.
