Sensitive scalp

2 min reading time

If you have a sensitive scalp, it’s important to choose hairstyles and products that don’t irritate your skin or cause tension on your scalp.

 

Here are some tips and hairstyles that are gentle and suitable for sensitive scalps:

 

💆‍♀️ TIPS FOR CARE OF SENSITIVE SCALES

1. Avoid tight hairstyles – Tight ponytails, buns or braids can cause pain and even hair loss.

2. Use soft hair ties – No metal parts; silk or fabric scrunchies are best.

3. Gently comb – Start at the ends and work your way up, using a natural bristle brush or wide-toothed comb.

4. Don’t irritate with heat – Limit the use of blow dryers, flat irons or curling irons. Always use a heat protectant.

5. Gentle washing – Use shampoos that are free of sulfates, parabens and strong fragrances. Ideal: shampoos for sensitive skin or dermatologically tested products.

 

🌿 HAIRSTYLES FOR SENSITIVE SCALP

1. Loose hair or natural waves

– No pulling, no stress on the scalp.

2. Half-up hairstyles (e.g. half-updo)

– Secure only the top part of the hair with a soft elastic or clip.

3. Loose braid on the side

– Lightly braided, not too tight, looks nice and does not burden the scalp.

4. Loose low ponytail

– Again at the back of the head, with a gentle elastic – do not tighten too much.

5. Hair scarf or headband

– If you want to keep your hair away from your face, use a soft scarf or wide fabric headband.
