We’ve heard it all before, a tale as old as time: healthy hair, starts with a healthy scalp. But sometimes it isn’t that simple, and we need some help getting our scalp health back on track. If that sounds like you, read on!
Why is a healthy scalp important?
Keeping your scalp in healthy condition, not only helps fight battles with dandruff, itchiness and flakiness, but it is also key to getting your locks to grow! Looking after your scalp is what boosts hair growth and encourages your hair to grow silkier and shinier, aka achieving major hair goals.
To help do just that, leading haircare brand Kemon have some top shelf products that are all about targeting and improving your overall hair and scalp health. Today, we wanted to share our top product picks and tips from Kemon’s vegan range that will have your scalp feeling soothed, refreshed and squeaky clean!
Tip 1: Ditch the product build up
Product of choice: Kemon Actyva Equilibrio G Shampoo
Experiencing dreaded product build up? Has your hair lost its normal shine and looking dull? Well, the Kemon Actyva Equilibrio G Shampoo is for you! Just like a spring clean, this shampoo will make you feel refreshed and cleansed. It is perfect to detox and reset your hair and works to remove styling product build-up and dead skin. After just one application, this product rids strands of all build-up and will leave your hair looking voluminous, light and bouncy. It also works wonders with preventing greasy hair.
Directions for use:
- Apply to the hairline in sections.
- Rake to distribute, from the hairline towards the top of the head.
- Massage with a slow, light circular motion.
- Emulsify, rinse and towel dry. Use twice if needed.
Tip 2: Get on top of oil control
Product of choice: Kemon Actyva Benessere Shampoo
Sure, oil in hair isn’t always the bad guy. Oil is actually what gives our hair its natural shine, keeps our locks smooth and prevents breakage. The problem is when we have too much oil. So, to help get your oil control in order, we recommend using Kemon Actyva Benessere Shampoo. This bad boy deeply cleanses the hair and removes excess oil from irritated and sensitive scalps. It also provides proper nutrition to dried out, sensitive midshafts, and leaves them feeling soft and easy to comb.
Directions for use:
- Apply to the hairline in sections.
- Rake to distribute, from the hairline towards the top of the head.
- Massage with a slow, light circular motion.
- Emulsify, rinse and towel dry. Use twice if needed.
Tip 3: Detoxing your scalp is key
Product of choice: Kemon Actyva P Factor Scalp
The more treatment and love you give your scalp the happier it will be. For that extra love and attention try the Kemon Actyva P Factor Scalp. This vegan regenerating treatment gives your scalp a delightful sensation of freshness and leaves mid-shafts with a silky shine, making your mane easy to detangle. Made with all that good stuff like sweet almond oil, extracts of calendula, thyme, and aloe vera as well as vitamins E, PP, B6 and H, this formula will work to hydrate, soothe and revitalise any irritated scalp. Bonus points because this treatment works to prevent hair loss as well as counteracts the harmful effects of free radicals.
Directions for use:
Simple as 1,2,3.
- Apply to wet hair
- Emulsify
- Wash out
Pro Tip: Scalp Massages
When applying any one of the above products, if possible and time permitted, treat yourself to a scalp massage. Sure, in an ideal world we would have live-in hairdressers who could come to the rescue, but when it comes to increasing scalp health, it is actually worthwhile to take time out and give yourself a massage.
Why, may you ask? Well, scalp massages increase hair thickness by stretching the cells of hair follicles. This stimulates the follicles to produce thicker hair. It is also proven that a scalp massage can help dilate blood vessels beneath the skin, which (drum roll please) encourages hair growth!
So, when massaging in your products into your scalp take the time to gently and slowly move the product in circular motions throughout your entire scalp. You will not only feel more relaxed, but you are doing your scalp health a major favour! *brb going for a scalp massage*
