Spring is a time for renewal, and that includes your hair! At Anita Obison Hair Salon, we believe healthy hair starts with a healthy scalp. Exfoliating your scalp regularly helps remove dead skin cells, product buildup, and excess oil, promoting a clean environment for healthy hair growth.
DIY Scalp Scrub for a Spring Refresh:
This simple recipe uses natural ingredients you might already have in your kitchen!
Ingredients:
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar (for gentle exfoliation)
- 1 tablespoon honey (for moisture and antibacterial properties)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil (for nourishing the scalp)
- 2-3 drops of peppermint essential oil (optional, for a tingling sensation and scalp stimulation)
Instructions:
- In a small bowl, combine all ingredients and mix well to create a paste.
- Wet your hair and gently massage the scrub onto your scalp using circular motions.
- Focus on areas prone to product buildup or dryness.
- Leave the scrub on your scalp for 5-10 minutes to allow the ingredients to work their magic.
- Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water and follow with your regular shampoo and conditioner.
Tips:
- Do a patch test on your inner arm before applying the scrub to your scalp to check for any sensitivities.
- Don’t scrub too harshly, as this can irritate your scalp.
- Use this scrub once a week, or as needed, depending on your hair type and scalp condition.
- Healthy Scalp, Happy Hair!
While this DIY scrub is a great way to give your scalp a spring clean, our expert stylists at Anita Obison Hair Salon can recommend professional scalp treatments for deeper exfoliation and targeted hair growth solutions.
