A healthy scalp starts here – your guide to a healthy scalp routine
A routine for your scalp – The foundation for healthy and thriving hair
Beautiful hair always starts with a healthy scalp. We often invest a lot of time and money in caring for the lengths, but it is in the follicles that the journey to strong hair actually begins. When a dry scalp or irritating imbalance occurs, it is quickly reflected in the overall quality of the hair. The hair can feel lifeless and lose its natural bounce.
How do you tell the difference between dandruff and a dry scalp?
This is one of the most common questions when your scalp starts acting up. A dry and sensitive scalp produces small, dry, white flakes that fall off easily and onto your clothes, and it often feels tight and dry. Dandruff, on the other hand, is caused by the overproduction of a natural yeast fungus, resulting in slightly oilier, yellowish flakes that tend to stick to the scalp and hair strands.
What should you do when your scalp itches?
To restore balance, you need a dedicated scalp routine that both cleanses and hydrates. Start in the shower with Björn Axén Scalp Detox Scrub together with the Björn Axén Scalp Massage Brush with soft silicone bristles. The massage stimulates blood circulation, exfoliates away old product buildup, and lets the skin breathe. Additionally, the fresh peppermint scent provides a pleasant cooling and refreshing sensation. Use at least once a week, or more often if needed.
Follow with Björn Axén Scalp Shampoo to gently cleanse the hair and scalp and soothe the scalp. Finish by applying Björn Axén Scalp Conditioner. Don't forget to massage the conditioner into the scalp. The skin on your scalp needs moisture after shampooing, just as the skin on your face needs moisturizer after cleansing. For extra hydration, you can apply Björn Axén Moisture Hair & Scalp Serum to the scalp and lengths on towel-dried hair. With hyaluronic acid and Anti-Dehydration Technology, it helps retain moisture and nourish both hair and scalp.
Serien passar alla hårtyper och kan användas som en detoxkur som komplement till den vanliga hårgarderoben, men schampo och balsam i serien är även tillräckligt skonsamma att använda som daglig rutin om du har en känslig hårbotten.
Hur ofta du bör göra en cleanse beror helt på din hårbotten och hur mycket stylingprodukter du använder. Om du stylar håret ofta kan du köra rutinen varannan vecka, medan det för en torrare eller mer känslig hårbotten räcker med var tredje vecka eller en gång i månaden. För en långsiktig förbättring är det smart att använda ett färdigt set som The Scalp Routine.
