Is your scalp congested?

Luscious hair doesn’t always come easy; if you struggle with thin hair and you haven’t had any major health changes it could actually be from hair follicle congestion!

Your body’s natural sebum production becomes a problem when it combines with dirt and dead skin cells and clogs a follicle. Everyone has some dirt and dead skin cells on their scalp and a few clogged hair follicles isn’t noticeable, but heavy use of chemically infused hair products will usually add level of gunk that your hair can’t win against.

If you think you may be losing hair due to clogged hair follicles, here’s what you can do:

• Switch to natural hair products without harsh chemicals. All those synthetic ingredients damage your scalp over time and buildup on the surface. Smothering your hair's natural circulation and cell turnover.
  
  
• Stimulate the scalp and encourage emerging hair follicles to continue sprouting with essential oils! Massage into your scalp to improve circulation, and help remove excess sebum from the scalp without over-drying. ✨Utilize oils like cedarwood and rosemary (found in the Mermaid Spray!) to help remove excess sebum from the scalp with over-drying.

 

• Look to the inside. When your body can’t get rid of wastes as efficiently, the toxins start to come out of your skin in the form of oil sebum - thus clogging up your follicles! Jumpstart your circulation with Lymphatic Drainage session, regular dry brushing, and upping your antioxidant intake while cutting down on processed/greasy foods.
