We all want healthy hair, but luscious locks aren’t necessarily easy to obtain. Healthy hair starts at the root and that comes down to one thing: your scalp.
Your scalp is part of the largest organ in your body – the skin – and it requires a certain degree of care to keep it in good condition. Using the wrong hair care products, spending too much time in the sun, and subjecting your hair and scalp to harsh chemicals and hairstyles add up to a lifetime of damage which can leave your scalp feeling flaky and your hair dull and flat.
You may not be able to restore perfect scalp health overnight and wake up with a new head of hair, but there are simple steps you can start taking to improve scalp health over time. Proper skincare shouldn’t be limited to your face – read on to learn 18 ways to get a healthy scalp.
A healthy scalp is the secret to beautiful hair, but you have to remember your scalp is an extension of the skin on your forehead. This means it has sweat and oil glands of its own and it is constantly shedding dead skin cells. The same way you cleanse, exfoliate, and moisturize the skin on your face, you should be applying the same attention to your scalp.
You don’t necessarily need to dedicate part of your morning and evening routine to scalp care (more power to you if you do), but you should treat your scalp with respect by carefully choosing the hair care products you use. Shop according to your skin type and your hair type to find what works for you.
Here are 10 ingredients to avoid when shopping for hair care products:
In addition to avoiding harsh hair care ingredients, there are a few simple tips you should follow as well. If you have very oily skin or a particularly dry and flaky scalp, your hair might need to be washed every day or at least spritzed with dry shampoo between washings. For most people, however, it’s actually better to shampoo every 2 to 3 days. Read on for more tips to improve your scalp health.
Scalp health is an aspect of total body health, so you can’t expect your skin to be healthy if you’re not taking steps to protect your overall wellness. If your skin feels itchy, flaky, or oily, it could probably use some help. Hair loss and chronic skin problems like psoriasis may require a visit to a hair or skin specialist. If you’re simply looking to boost general scalp health, however, there are things you can do.
Here are 8 simple tips to improve your scalp health:
Even if you follow a strict hair care routine, your scalp may not receive the full benefit if you don’t use the right products. You don’t necessarily need to spend a fortune each month on shampoo and conditioner, but you should choose your hair products wisely and take skin and hair type into account.

I am surprised by the result of the dermalmd hair growth serum. I started feeling the difference after 14 days itself. It's definatly growing back hair & making my hair look dense. It has a good fragrance & best part is that it's Not Oily. Please go for it if you have hair loss & baldness
