Scalp Soothing Cleansing Remedies

We can all get a little hot and bothered on these long summer days, so it’s no surprise our scalps can get a little irritated too. Not that we are complaining, summer is good for your soul, but when all this new growth is flourishing around you, your scalp can be suffering tightness, stinging, dryness, and irritation. The build-up of sweat, and exposure to sun, sea minerals, SPF residue, sand, and pool water can really do a number, leaving more sensitive scalps itchy, irritated, and red. If you find the summer months take their toll on your scalp, check out these super cooling and calming offerings from us here at Millies to help alleviate your discomfort.

Davines Naturaltech Calming Shampoo

It will help to calm and sooth scalp that is sensitive to the touch. This is a great one for anyone who is sensitive to strong products and carries their stress in their scalp.

Shampoo twice, leave the second shampoo to sit for 1-2 minutes before rinsing. Follow with your favourite conditioner.

Kerastase Soleil Bain Apres-Soleil

A nourishing after-sun cleanser, rich in Coconut water to deeply rehydrate and restore the hair and scalp, after too long in the sun. a great option for the summer months, when travelling abroad, or for people who spend a lot of time outdoors.

Kerastase Specifique Bain Vital Dermo-Calm and Bain Riche Dermo-Calm

I have turned to Dermo-Calm many a time to relieve the discomfort in my scalp, and it has never let me down. As a long-time sufferer of psoriasis, I used the Bain Vital consistently for countless years, to sooth the irritation of itching, dryness, redness, and tightness throughout my scalp. Bain Vital is designed for normal/combination hair and scalp, while Bain Riche is designed for sensitive scalps with dry hair. Both are hypoallergenic and have anti-bacterial and anti-fungal properties do help fight and prevent scalp infection. They are silicone free which helps reduce product build-up and keeps your scalp feeling light and airy.

Cleanse twice using gentle massage. Leave on for 1-3 minutes to allow the active ingredients time to work. Rinse well.

Always be sure to use a gentle hand and tepid water when cleansing a sensitive of irritated scalp, and if you need any further advice regarding scalp or hair care, please just message me on Instagram and I’ll be happy to help.
