Caring for your scalp is just as important as caring for your skin.

Healthy and well-groomed hair can be an important part of our physical and emotional wellbeing. Pollution, changes in the season and stress are just some of the factors that can impact your hair and scalp condition.

A healthier-feeling scalp is the foundation for strong and beautiful hair. By maintaining a balanced scalp, you can help manage common concerns such as dandruff, greasiness, dryness, breakage and hair loss.

Incorporating efficacious scalp care products into your haircare routine can help rebalance the scalp, protect, nourish and revitalise hair. Give your scalp the care it deserves with our expert advice and experience the confidence that comes with healthier-feeling and looking hair.

We have partnered with Vichy, who are committed to skin & scalp health science. Pioneering hair & scalp formulations for over 50+ years, Dercos by Vichy have developed expert knowledge on biological and environmental factors influencing scalp conditions and hair beauty to develop products with proven efficacy.

 Dercos treats your scalp the same way you treat your skin. They are on a mission to educate, break the stigma and promote a healthier-looking scalp & hair for all.

Want to speak to one of our scalp experts? Contact us for a complimentary 1:1 consultation for a bespoke consultation to understand your hair & scalp needs.

SCALP 101 Understanding your scalp

Healthy Scalp Can Be the Foundation for Beautiful Hair

A healthy-looking scalp is the foundation for strong and beautiful hair. Understanding your scalp and identifying any concerns is crucial in maintaining optimal hair health. That’s why we know caring for your scalp should be just as important as caring for your skin.

Understanding Your Scalp

To understand your scalp better, start by examining its overall condition. Have a look at its texture; is it dry, oily or a combination of both? Pay attention to any flakiness or sensitivity.

Common Concerns

Identifying common scalp concerns correctly can help you manage them effectively.

Dandruff: Characterised by white flakes on the scalp and hair, the scalp can feel itchy and uncomfortable. Look for anti-dandruff shampoos that effectively target flakes and manage long-term relapse.

Dry Scalp: If your scalp feels tight and dry, it may be due to a lack of moisture. Use hydrating products to nourish and combat the dryness.

Oily Scalp: Excessive oil production can lead to greasy looking hair and a shiny scalp. Look for clarifying shampoos that help manage oiliness.

Hair Loss & Thinning: Noticeable loss and shedding of hair, triggered by different factors which can include breakage, styling damage, stress, hormones or even giving birth.

Always consult your GP or dermatologist for medical advice and diagnosis.
