August 21, 2023

Today we're tackling something that is sometimes forgotten: scalp psoriasis. It's time to shed some light on this topic and give you some handy tips for tackling and mitigating the challenges it can pose. If you've ever felt itchy, seen scaly skin or noticed redness on your scalp, you're certainly not alone. Let's dig deeper and learn more about this, and most importantly, how to best care for your scalp!

Understanding psoriasis on the scalp

But what exactly is psoriasis? Well, it's an autoimmune disease that can affect the skin on different parts of the body, including the scalp. Psoriasis on the scalp often results in red patches covered in silvery scales that can seem to have their own agenda of itching like crazy. It's annoying and can definitely affect self-esteem, but here's the thing - you're not alone, and there are actually ways to deal with it.

Tips for managing psoriasis on the scalp

  • Choose your arsenal
    Make it a habit to use mild and gentle hair care products. Check out our
    Caring Shampoo, specially created for sensitive scalps. It has great ingredients like hyaluronic acid and Piroctone Olamine to soothe and nourish.
  • Say no to harsh chemicals
    Avoid products that are full of sulfates and parabens. Our products, like
    Repair Infusion with its vegan protein and aloe vera extract, have kicked these enemies to the curb.
  • Enjoy moisture with mask
    Give your scalp a love boost with our
    Caring Masque. It packs shea butter and hyaluronic acid like a hug in a jar, to moisturize and soothe.
  • Itching, you are not welcome
    To tackle that itch, you can take advantage of our
    Invisible Dry Shampoo which is a real hero for all hair types. It's like a fresh-wind-in-the-hair-temporary-rescue.
  • Love your hair and protect it
    If you're friends with the heat tools (hello, curling irons and straighteners), give your hair extra protection with our
    Nourishing Heat Protection. It's also your best defense against frizz and that annoying frayed ends.
