Discover how to treat common scalp issues with Aveda's haircare products. 

We often prioritise our facial skin health, but what about our scalp? It’s simply an extension of our skin and deserves the same attention. In this article, we’ll discuss common scalp issues and how Aveda's range of haircare products are designed to soothe and revitalise your scalp.

How to reduce scalp itching?

Constantly scratching your scalp? An irritated scalp is common and can be triggered by various factors, including products that are aggravating your scalp. So it’s important to change up your haircare routine.

To relieve scalp itching, use gentle products that calm the scalp. The Aveda Scalp Solutions range, specifically the Aveda Scalp Solutions Balancing Shampoo and Aveda Scalp Solutions Replenishing Conditioner, is formulated to enhance scalp health by improving scalp hydration instantly and overtime.

Additionally, try an at-home scalp massage with the Aveda Stimulating Scalp Massager, which gently, yet effectively lifts impurities from the scalp and increases scalp micro-circulation.

If the irritation persists for over three months despite changing products, consult a professional, as it may indicate a more serious condition.

How do I treat scalp sunburn?

We often overlook protecting our scalp from UV rays, which just like our skin, it can lead to sunburn. Sunburn damage can disrupt the scalp's protective oils and cellular structure, potentially increasing the chances of hair loss.

To prevent this, apply SPF to your scalp or wear a hat. The Aveda Sun Care Protective Hair Veil, a water-resistant UV defence mist, forms an invisible shield to protect your hair from sun damage and dryness.

What are some scalp redness remedies?

Scalp redness isn't always due to sunburn. It can result from product reactions, excessive heat styling or hairstyles causing tension.

To alleviate redness, reduce styling and switch hair care products to identify the cause. The Aveda Scalp Solutions Overnight Renewal Serum can soothe redness and irritation. If redness is accompanied by inflammation or scaly skin, consult a healthcare professional for advice.

How to reduce scalp dryness?

Dry scalp can be caused by over-washing, extreme weather, hot water, or using the wrong hair products.

For a hydration boost, try the Aveda Scalp Solutions Replenishing Conditioner. This treatment hydrates and refreshes the scalp, improving hydration instantly and over time. Persistent dryness may be due to conditions like eczema or psoriasis, requiring a doctor's consultation for proper treatment.

How to get rid of oily scalp?

An oily scalp can result from genetics, hormones or product buildup. While some oil is beneficial to protect and support healthy hair, excess oil can make hair feel greasy and dirty.

The Aveda Scalp Solutions Exfoliating Scalp Treatment removes surface pollution and product buildup without disrupting the moisture barrier.

Maintaining a healthy scalp is crucial for healthy hair. Aveda’s Scalp Solutions range offers gentle products to address issues like redness, dryness, and oiliness, promoting healthy hair growth. Shop Aveda Scalp Solutions haircare range.
