Week of Great Hair: Flake-Free Friday!
“It brought out my natural highlights and made my hair silky smooth. I also noticed that my scalp is much healthier. This shampoo has done more than I ever expected!” –Tiffany S.
- Avoid the urge to scrub-a-dub at your scalp during washing. This can cause irritation and even more flaking!
- It’s a myth that letting hair air dry causes dandruff. Just make sure to towel dry hair immediately after your shower (or give it a blast with the dryer), as soaking wet strands can be a breeding ground for fungal growth.
- Use a soft natural bristle brush for your tresses. This distributes the oil from your scalp onto the rest of your hair instead of letting it accumulate on the top of your head.
- Head & Shoulders Smooth & Silky Dandruff Conditioner, $8, drugstore.com: This product helps reduce itchy scalps, irritation, dryness, and (of course) the worst flakes!
- Desert Essence 100% Pure Jojoba Oil for Hair, Skin, & Scalp, $10, drugstore.com: Despite having a funny name, jojoba oil is the perf, secret solution for itchy, sensitive scalps as it helps moisturize the scalp and prevent dandruff.
- Tresemme Fresh Start Dry Shampoo For Oily/Straight to Normal Hair, $6, walgreens.com: Maintain a sleek, oil-free hairstyle without creating unnecessary volume like many other dry shampoos out there!
