Why do I have a dry, itchy scalp?

A dry, itchy scalp is a common concern for hair types and textures across the board. Not only is this a frustrating condition, it can also be difficult to pinpoint the root of the issue. A few typical reasons for a dry, itchy scalp include:


- Dandruff: A type of dermatitis (seborrheic dermatitis) that is extremely common and develops from the overgrowth of yeast, seasonal changes, stress and hormonal imbalances. It appears in areas like our face and scalp where sebaceous glands become inflamed and produce: Flaking, white or yellow scales, itchiness, and/or reddened skin.
- Contact dermatitis: Inflammation brought on by the introduction of a new product or substance (like a new shampoo or conditioner) on our scalp.
- Scalp psoriasis: A common skin condition that creates inflamed scaly and flaky, red patches. In some instances the patches can extend to the neck and forehead. 
- Allergic reactions 
- Anxiety disorders

How to instantly revive your scalp with our Scalp Revival™ collection

Scalp Care = Healthy Hair™. Our scalps are an extension of our skin, which means your scalp care routine should mimic your skincare routine. Prepping your scalp with an optimal regimen that includes exfoliation, hydration, and moisturizing, will prime your scalp for long-term hair and scalp health. Start with our fan-favorite Scalp Revival™ routine for your healthiest, happiest scalp ever: 

 

Step 1: Exfoliate your scalp.

Using our creamy Scalp Revival™ Charcoal + Coconut Oil Micro-Exfoliating Shampoo sets the stage for the optimal environment for your scalp to thrive and grow long-term healthy hair.

How to use: Wet hair and vigorously massage into the scalp and through to the ends. Rinse and repeat, as necessary.

 

Step 2: Add hydration. 

We always recommend restoring your scalp’s moisture balance after any exfoliation treatment. Add hydration back to your scalp with our Scalp Revival™ Charcoal + Tea Tree Cooling Hydration Scalp Mask

 

Key benefits: Restores essential moisture post-exfoliation. Soothes, nourishes and detoxifies scalp.

How to use: After exfoliating with the Scalp Revival™ Charcoal + Coconut Oil Micro-Exfoliating Shampoo, apply directly to the scalp and massage it in. Leave on for up to 10 minutes. Rinse out thoroughly and condition the hair normally with your favorite Briogeo™ hair conditioner or layer up and deep-condition your strands with a multi-masking session.

 

Step 3: Treat your scalp.

Finish up your Scalp Revival™ routine with a few instantly cooling, soothing and refreshing drops of our award-winning Scalp Revival™ Charcoal + Tea Tree Scalp Treatment.

Step 4: Freshen up!

If your strands or scalp start feeling oily or need a little help staying balanced, give your scalp a quick spritz of our Scalp Revival™ Charcoal + Biotin Dry Shampoo. We love using this light, aerosol-free dry shampoo to extend the life of our blowouts, revive limp strands or give our day-three hair extra wiggle room.

Key benefits: Draws out impurities and detoxifies. Absorbs excess oil and refreshes your strands. Normalizes oil production.

How to use: Shake well with your finger over the nozzle to prevent spillage. Twist the cap to reveal the spray dispenser and squeeze the bottle at least five inches away from your roots to dispense the dry shampoo. Let the dry shampoo sit for two minutes and then brush or finger-comb through the hair thoroughly until the powder is dissolved.
