It’s winter but the cold weather this season is like none we have experienced before! While we’re well prepared with our coats and boots, our skin needs some attention too…more specifically, our dry itchy scalp. The air this season is so dry – outside from the temperature that continues to plunge from the Polar Vortex and indoors from heating.
Moisture is pulled from whatever is moist, hair and scalp included. Suddenly your hair is brittle, dry and your scalp starts flaking…everywhere. There is not enough natural moisture to offset the climate change and your hair care products may be sucking out the little moisture that may have been left. Either way – you have a situation on your hands that ends with dandruff.
You can’t control the weather and you can’t forgo heating, but the products you choose to use in your hair are certainly within your control. If some of your favorite hair products contain chemicals it will benefit you to say adios for your hair’s sake. Remember, a clean, healthy scalp is the key to growing great hair. Keep your eyes out for these harmful and unhealthy ingredients that are harsh and damaging after long-term use:
- Isopropyl Alcohol – dries hair, creates a crunch and brittle feeling to hair; deteriorates protein in the hair
- Propylene Glycol – ravages hair strands and accelerates hair aging
- Sodium Lauryl Sulfate – irritates skin and scalp; depletes the hair of moisture
- Petroleum – coats the hair and skin; suffocates hair and scalp by keeping oxygen out
- Mineral oil – petroleum byproduct; inhibits the skin from breathing; clogs pores; dries scalp and hair
These ingredients create further dryness which can lead to flakes, so an all-natural substitute is recommended, like Jane Carter Solution; an entire line of naturally-derived ingredients that work effectively on all hair textures and nourishes dry hair. Nourishing your scalp is essential, after all your hair is worth it! When used together, Jane Carter Solution’s Scalp Renew and Scalp Nourishing Serum can help combat dandruff and prevent you having to brush ya shoulders off in the future.
Scalp Renew is a pre-shampoo treatment formulated to exfoliate the scalp, detoxify and soften sebum that prevents the scalp from receiving moisture. Tea Tree Oil, Sweet Orange and Peppermint invigorates the scalp, removes toxins and impurities that hinder hair growth. This prepares the scalp to receive and fully absorb the essential oils and vitamins of Scalp Nourishing Serum. This leave-in scalp nourisher will put an end to itching, flaking and dryness. It’s a super-light formula that doesn’t build up on the scalp or way your hair down.
With just a few product changes, you could be flake free in a few days!
