Just like skin, your scalp can be dry, oily, sensitive, or normal. Identifying your scalp type is the first step in choosing the right products and routines.

• Oily Scalp: Produces excess sebum, often leading to greasy hair and scalp.
• Dry Scalp: Lacks moisture, causing itchiness and flakiness.
• Sensitive Scalp: Easily irritated, can be prone to redness and discomfort.
• Normal Scalp: Balanced oil production and minimal issues.

Choose the Right Shampoo and Treatment

Selecting the right shampoo and treatment is crucial. Here’s a guide based on scalp types:

• Oily Scalp: Opt for a clarifying shampoo that removes excess oil without stripping natural moisture. Experts at Live True London recommend FUL's Charcoal Purifying Shampoo. It's powered by activated charcoal to remove impurities from your hair and scalp.
• Dry Scalp: Look for moisturising and hydrating shampoos with ingredients like argan oil, shea butter, or coconut oil. Incorporating FUL's All Rounder Shampoo and the Detox Scalp Treatment can also help manage dryness by balancing moisture levels and removing buildup.
• Sensitive Scalp: Avoid harsh chemicals and opt for gentle, soothing formulas, using a daily scalp treatment, like FUL's Detox Scalp Treatment. Powered by: Turmeric Extract, Aloe Vera and Vegetable Collagen.
• Normal Scalp: Maintain balance with a shampoo that focus's on every day health. All Rounder Shampoo is designed to take care of your hair to create healthy and glossy locks. Powered by Glycerine, Biotin, and Vegetable Collagen to lock in moisture, tame frizz and promote healthy hair growth.

Exfoliate Regularly

Exfoliating your scalp removes dead skin cells and product buildup, promoting a healthier scalp environment.

• Scalp Massagers -  Exfoliate and increase blood flow to the scalp to encourage healthy hair growth. Deeply cleanses the hair with every wash, getting the most out of your favourite shampoo.
• Detox Scalp Treatment - A detoxifying treatment formulated to soothe fussy scalps! Formulated with Aloe Vera and Turmeric extract to soothe inflamed and irritated scalps,

Keep Your Scalp Moisturised

A dry scalp needs extra moisture. Use scalp treatments or leave-in treatments to keep your scalp hydrated.

• Hyaluronic Acid Hair Serum - A leave in treatment that helps target small areas of scalp irritation. It helps to soothe your flakey scalp leaving it moisturised.

Protect Your Scalp from the Sun

Your scalp is just as vulnerable to UV damage as your skin. Wear a hat or use hair products with UV protection when spending extended time in the sun. We recommend FUL's Styling Spray which is packed with heat protection to protect your hair from any damage caused by the sun, heat styling and UV.

Avoid Harsh Chemicals and Heat

• Products: Steer clear of shampoos and conditioners with sulphates, parabens, and silicones, which can be harsh on the scalp. FUL is proud to be sulphate free, paraben free, and mineral oil free.
• Styling Tools: Minimise the use of heat styling tools like blow dryers, straighteners, and curling irons. If you must use them, apply a heat protectant spray beforehand.

By understanding your scalp type and following these tips, you can ensure your scalp remains clean, nourished, and free from issues. Remember, a little care and attention go a long way in achieving optimal scalp health.
