A leading trichologist, or hair expert, has said that lots of people wash their hair with the wrong kind of shampoo. The trichologist who has clinics in the UK and Portugal employs DNA tests, pH balance indicators, laser stimulation and other techniques to improve his client’s hair quality.
Says the expert, Most people are not using the right shampoo for their scalp and hair type. Believing that one size fits all is a typical mistake people make when it comes to hair care. Use the adequate shampoo according to your scalp type, but some shampoos when used frequently can remove the protective film of the scalp in excess promoting sensitivity. To avoid this, If the hair needs daily washing it is recommended to use a gentle cleansing shampoo as a base or a hypoallergenic for frequent use. If the scalp is dehydrated, frequent shampooing, even if not daily, can cause discomfort and a feeling and tightness on the scalp, it is recommended to use a moisturising formula to promote a layer of protection on the scalp, shampoo with natural oils like argan, macadamia and also panthenol, or lactic acid are very beneficial and confronting for dry scalp.
Another problem is knowing how often you ought to wash your hair. Many people are unsure what determines it. According to different hair and scalp types the washing frequency may vary as in some cases washing is essential due to high production of sebum or if the scalp sweats, but for the cases of very dry scalp and dry hair, washing frequently can cause some discomfort, promoting dehydration. Scalp conditions like dandruff or sensitivity should be addressed with suitable products or ointments should be applied over-night before you wash the hair.
