Sensitive scalp shampoo: gentle cleansing and comfort

A sensitive scalp can show signs such as itching, redness, a tight feeling, or visible flakes caused by dryness. The scalp often reacts more quickly to external triggers, such as strongly cleansing shampoos, weather changes, or changes in daily hair care routines. A sensitive scalp shampoo is therefore designed to cleanse the hair and scalp in a gentle way, with a focus on comfort and balance.

The Neofollics Scalp Therapy Exfoliating Shampoo is developed for people with a sensitive or easily irritated scalp who need a mild and targeted cleanse. The formula cleanses the scalp gently yet thoroughly, helps to loosen visible flakes caused by dryness, and supports a comfortable feeling on the scalp with regular use.

What is a sensitive scalp shampoo used for?

A sensitive scalp is not a fixed condition, but a situation in which the skin can become unbalanced more easily. This can be linked to different types of discomfort, such as:

• Itching or a burning feeling
• Redness or a tight scalp
• Fine flakes caused by dryness
• An uncomfortable feeling after washing

A sensitive scalp shampoo is used to avoid making these concerns worse. By cleansing in a mild way and focusing on scalp comfort, it can help the scalp feel calmer and more comfortable as part of a daily hair care routine.

What should you look for in a sensitive scalp shampoo?

Choose a shampoo that focuses on gentle care, such as:

• Mild cleansing agents instead of strongly degreasing formulas
• Preferably without harsh sulphates
• Formulas without unnecessary additives, such as parabens
• A clear focus on comfort, mildness, and balance
• Suitable for regular use as part of a calm hair care routine

A shampoo that meets these points usually fits better with the needs of a sensitive or easily irritated scalp. The Scalp Therapy Exfoliating Shampoo is developed with these principles in mind and fits well into a gentle and comfortable washing routine.

Which ingredients does the Scalp Therapy Exfoliating Shampoo contain?

How do you use shampoo for a sensitive scalp?

The way you use a shampoo plays an important role in how comfortable your scalp feels after washing, especially if you have a sensitive scalp.

The Scalp Therapy Exfoliating Shampoo is often used a few times per week. For many people, around three washes per week is a comfortable starting point. This can vary depending on hair type, personal preference, and how the scalp feels.

Apply the shampoo to wet hair and gently massage it into the scalp using calm movements and light pressure. Avoid scratching or rubbing too firmly. Leave the shampoo on briefly, then rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water.

A consistent and mild washing routine can help support a more comfortable feeling on the scalp as part of daily hair care.

Is a sensitive scalp the same as dandruff or a dry scalp?

A sensitive scalp can overlap with concerns such as dandruff or a dry scalp, but it is not always the same. A sensitive scalp reacts more quickly to external triggers, while dandruff and dryness can have more specific causes. These concerns can also occur at the same time.

Can my scalp become more sensitive temporarily, for example due to stress or weather conditions?

Yes, factors such as stress, cold temperatures, dry air, or sun exposure can make the scalp react more quickly for a period of time. During these times, a mild shampoo can help keep the scalp as comfortable as possible as part of a regular hair care routine.

How do I know if my scalp is sensitive and not something else?

If the scalp often itches, becomes red, or feels tight after washing, this may point to sensitivity. If the concerns continue or become worse, it is advisable to seek professional advice.
