Dry scalp, scaly scalp

• Dry scalp has too little moisture.
• With dry, flaky scalp, the skin protection barrier is weakened.
• Inflammation of the above skin and on the hair follicles are likely.
• Itching is reinforced by unsuitable care products.

Trockene Kopfhaut kann man fühlen: Die Kopfhaut spannt und juckt. And you can see them: dry scalp shows fine cracks. Dandruff refer to a weakened skin protection barrier. Penetrating allergens provoke itching and inflammation. How can the scalp be regenerated? With a special care shampoo-and surprisingly also with a hair growth, Thiocyn hair serum.

Causes of dry scalp

Dry scalp arises when the balance of skin fats and skin moisture, as well as the renewal process of the skin cells gets out of balance. Dry and cracked scalp favors the penetration of irritants. Skin irritation such as itching And reddening of the skin, including dry scales. As the causes of dry scalp, for example, direct sunlight, warm air (heating, hair dryer), stress, medication, neurodermatitis, aging processes and, last but not least, excessive washing the hair are considered.

Use of shampoo and water

In general, aggressive shampoos are seen as one of the determining causes of dry scalp. The surfactants of the shampoos solve dandruff, environmental pollution and inorganic salts, especially wash the Sebum (Hautalg) from the head. The skin valley makes skin and hair supple and water -repellent. If Hautalg is regularly removed from the head, the scalp is lost moisture.

In addition to the use of unsuitable shampoos, especially anti-scaly shampoos against greasy dandruff, contact with water, is also not unproblematic. Our skin has a slightly acidic pH of 5.5, while water, on the other hand, a neutral of 7. Due to the diffusion force, the molecules tend to compensate for the pH. This means that the skin becomes more basic and drier due to water contact solely.

If the skin moisture subsides, the scalp becomes drier and scaly, the hair tends to brittleness. The growth phase of the hair through the hair follicle is often ended when the inflammation penetrates to the hair root. The hair follicles off in this critical situation, and it comes to Hair loss.

Dry scalp: care tips

Usually our scalp does not need any aids for regeneration. However, if the skin barrier is out of balance, the use of certain care products is obvious.

Fasting creams or lotions that protect the scalp from moisture loss can be excluded from the treatment of dry scalp because they have greasy hair as a "side effect". Home remedies, such as an olive oil cure, have a beneficial effect at short notice, but do not fix the causes of dry scalp. Even the best home remedies only move the problem.

The question is: how does dry scalp get back into balance? In the following two tips.

Nursing shampoo

A shampoo of the scalp and hair withdraws moisture. Fortunately, there are mild and moisturizing care shampoos, like that Noreiz skin-calming care shampoo. Finely coordinated care substances promote the regeneration of the scalp: Allantoin causes the acceleration of cell formation and cell structure and soothes the skin, urea supplies the skin with moisture. Especially with neurodermatitis, the Noreiz proves skin-calming care shampoo that it can diminish scales and itching noticeably.

Last but not least, the Noreiz, skin-calming care shampoo, ideally prepares the dry scalp for the use of the Thiocyn hair serum.

Thiocyn hair serum

Special care that is actually used in the event of hair loss*, showering and thinner hair to regenerate dry scalp? Yes, that makes sense. Because in order to normalize the hair cycle, stop hair loss* and stimulate hair growth, the scalp must first be calmed down and regenerate. This creates the patented Thiocyanate activity.

Thiocyanate is not an invention of modern chemistry, but a natural molecule that accompanies the development of life from the beginning and is therefore of great importance for the human organism - both for the cell metabolism of the hair on the hair root and for the cell metabolism of the scalp.

Perception of dry scalp

The scalp is probably the most sensitive part of human skin. It has more nerve cells than other skin areas. Thermaleceptors react to warmth or cold. Pain receptors are activated by mechanical, thermal or chemical impulses. There are special receptors even for itching. Mechanoreceptors capture the strength of pressure on the skin or skin stretching. The hair of the scalp also provides the brain: If the hair is touched or moved (draft), report the receptors of the hair follicles. Last but not least, dry scales that “trickle” from the head are an unmistakable sign of dry scalp.

What are dry scales?

Depending on the skin type, the scalp scales more or less strongly in the form of horny skin cells. Associations from 500 skin cells (cornozytes) are visible on hair or clothing as dandruff. Dry scalp-especially as a result of the use of certain shampoos and care products-means that larger scales form. Neurodermatitis or hormonal imbalance are also possible as causes of dandruff.
