Sensitive Scalp: Recommended Care and Products

"Help!" That's all you can say. That and it's a nuisance, and you've tried everything, and, honestly, even if you don't say it out loud, "it itches."

The Schwarzkopf BC Scalp Genesis line has been specially developed to relieve uncomfortable reactions of sensitive scalps such as itching, dandruff, dryness, or, conversely, excess oil.

Unsexy problems that don't suit a beautiful person like you and that, "God forbid," can cause more hair loss.

Symptoms of sensitive scalp

The most common symptoms of a sensitive scalp include itching, redness or inflammation, dryness, dandruff, or excess sebum, among others. If you think it's serious and/or you're concerned, it's advisable to contact your general practitioner or dermatologist.

What are the causes?

A period of stress or poor diet can contribute to or worsen the symptoms of a sensitive scalp, as can cosmetics, i.e., the type of shampoo you are using.

The best shampoos for sensitive scalps

Oh my. Just as we feel that some soaps dry out our skin, leaving it rougher than sandpaper, some shampoos do the same to the scalp. So what we're looking for is the opposite: a balm that takes care of us (and please!), that calms us.

Bonacure Scalp range for sensitive scalps

With a shampoo + serum duo, the new Bonacure scalp care range benefits from the potential of the Superfood Complex: a combination of superfoods and skincare active ingredients that help rebalance the scalp, protecting stem cells and roots for stronger, healthier-looking hair.

There are specific products to treat dandruff, a root activator, and also the soothing one, which we will continue to discuss in this article.

Your scalp will start to feel better and ahhhh relieved.

This is what you will achieve with the use of the serum and/or the Soothing shampoo BC Bonacure Scalp Genesis with rich vitamins to deeply detoxify and restore scalp balance:

Benefits of the Bonacure Scalp range for sensitive scalps

• Instantly balance sensitive scalps and restore their protective barrier, preventing the formation of visible dandruff flakes and other imbalances such as hair loss.
• Protect the scalp from external aggressors.
• Ensure healthy hair and scalp for a long time thanks to the protective barrier formed around the bulb cells.

And this is the science behind the results. A combination of skincare active ingredients and superfoods that almost make you want to lick your fingers:

• Kale contains Vitamins A, B, C, K, antioxidants, Omega-3, and Omega-6. Antioxidants help reduce inflammation, while fatty acids can help nourish the scalp.
• Madecassoside is a pure active ingredient from Centella asiatica leaves. It contains soothing and anti-inflammatory properties to help calm the skin, while its moisturizing properties improve moisture retention.
• Berries provide a boost of antioxidants and vitamins that help strengthen the skin's protective barrier and boost its defenses thanks to their anti-inflammatory properties.
• AHA (Alpha Hydroxy Acid) removes dirt and pollutants while keeping the scalp hydrated. It destroys dead skin cells to improve the skin's natural hydration levels.
• Guarana contains almost twice as much caffeine as a normal coffee bean. It has a high antioxidant content and helps stimulate hair follicles.
• Biotin is a water-soluble vitamin that helps the body metabolize fats, carbohydrates, and proteins. It contributes to protein synthesis and, more specifically, to keratin production, helping to increase hair strength and vitality.

And what they don't have are animal-derived ingredients or sulfates (free of Sodium Lauryl Sulphate and Sodium Laureth Sulphate), silicones, or artificial colorants.

Also, remember that, like all Schwarzkopf products, Bonacure cares about the environment: the new packaging is fully recyclable (except for the nozzles) and is made with up to 97% recycled plastic (except for the Serum bottles and the 7ml tube, since by law, and due to the risk of contamination, we cannot use any PCR for rinse-free skin products).
