SOS pollinated hair: our tips for purified hair

Oily hair can be a real source of frustration. What do you do when your hair gets greasy quickly and your scalp seems unbalanced ? The answer may lie in a well-thought-out hair detox, especially this season when pollen can make things worse.

Indeed, pollen is not only a threat to our respiratory tracts since it also plays a role in the balance of the scalp. Pollen particles, carried by the wind or insects, settle on the hair, sometimes creating a slight tingling sensation or discomfort. By clogging the hair follicles, they then stimulate the production of sebum. This can lead to oily roots and a feeling of heaviness in the scalp. For those who already struggle, pollen can accentuate oily hair and make washing even more difficult.

Discover our tips for clean, fresh hair free of pollen residue.

1. Wash your hair regularly

I t is crucial to maintain regular hair hygiene, especially during high pollination seasons. Washing your hair, preferably before bed, is an essential habit to adopt to avoid carrying allergens onto your pillow. Indeed, your hair acts as a pollen trap and captures these invisible particles. Comfortably installed on your hair, they promote allergy symptoms. Washing your hair properly is therefore essential to maintain optimal hair health.

When hair washing is not possible, brush your hair outside the bedroom. This helps remove some of the pollen retained by the hair. Also, it is recommended to wash clothes and pillowcases regularly to remove accumulated pollen and maintain a clean and healthy environment.

2. Use a purifying or detox shampoo

In addition to washing your hair regularly, using a detox or purifying shampoo helps combat pollen particles that accumulate throughout the day. In fact, these shampoos are specially formulated to remove impurities, dust, and all the polluting residues that accumulate on the scalp. For a healthier hair environment, opting for a purifying or detox shampoo purifies your hair and eliminates allergens.

It is essential to adopt the right gestures when washing your hair. By using the right products and following an adequate washing routine, you will be able to effectively eliminate pollen residues and other impurities:

1. Pour the right amount into your hand.

2. Gently massage the scalp using circular movements to lather the product.

3. Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water until the water runs clear and there is no shampoo residue left.

3. Protect your hair outdoors

Covering your hair is a beneficial practice to limit the accumulation of pollen. Whether it's by tying it in a ponytail, styling it in a bun, or opting for a scarf, these simple gestures can make all the difference. Indeed, creating a physical barrier prevents pollen particles from settling in it while preserving the health and beauty of your hair.

Choose silk or satin scarves to protect your hair. Smooth and soft, they are less likely to retain pollen than rough materials like cotton.
