About this deal

The grit found in a physical exfoliant – and how harshly you apply it – could cause micro-tears or scratches on the scalp and do more harm than good.” Salicylic acid is a common ingredient in shampoos designed to treat dandruff and seborrheic dermatitis (a chronic form of eczema). A good scrub will help remove dead skin cells and flakes that have accumulated, as well as oil and dirt from your hair.

Dandruff . Doctors don't know precisely what causes the white flake of dandruff, but it's a common scalp condition. People with dandruff notice a dry, itchy sensation on their head as well as white flakes on their hair, clothing, or pillowcase. If you have an area on your scalp that’s particularly oily or flaky, apply some salicylic acid directly to that area instead of all over your head. HOW TO USE: Apply pre-shampoo using enough to cover the whole scalp and leave for 10 mins before rinsing off and continuing your routine.

Salicylic acid can penetrate the skin and enter your bloodstream, so it’s not recommended to apply salicylic acid on your scalp if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Fungal infections (such as malassezia), inflammatory skin conditions (such as seborrheic dermatitis), dandruff or other medical concerns.Stress can trigger receptors in your skin, causing an itching sensation, but with no underlying scalp condition as the cause,” explains Anabel Kingsley, trichologist at Philip Kingsley in London. “It can also disrupt your scalp’s barrier function, leaving it more vulnerable to other problems – like dandruff – which are often itchy too.” Hair worn in tight braids, ponytails or weaves, is also more susceptible to the dreaded itch. Suitable for all hair types including sensitive scalps and colour-treated hair, use as a pre-wash treatment, 1-2 times per week to refresh the roots and maintain a calm, balanced scalp.​ Sorry, this is not advised. When it comes to a healthy scalp, doubling up won’t work. “The exfoliating ingredients in skincare can be particularly difficult to wash out of hair,” says Adam. Don’t use it if you have a scalp condition like seborrheic dermatitis or dandruff that causes redness and flaking of the skin in addition to itching and burning.
