How to choose a scalp serum

Scalp problems may vary from person to person. Here are some tips on how to choose a scalp serum according to your concerns.

How to Choose a Scalp Serum (1) “If you suffer from dryness, go for one rich in moisturizing ingredients!”

If you are concerned about a dry scalp, we recommend a product that contains glycerin, ceramide, and collagen, which have high moisturizing power. Since the scalp becomes drier with age, be sure to check the moisturizing ingredients from the 30s onward, even if you have other concerns. Oil-based serums are also highly moisturizing, so if you like a moist feel, oil is a good choice. Also, when the scalp is dry, it is likely to be sensitive, so oils that are gentle to the skin and derived from plants, such as jojoba oil, are recommended. When applying, be careful not to apply too much and spread it thinly.

How to Choose a Scalp Serum (2) “For anti-itch and dandruff, one with anti-inflammatory ingredients is good.”

If itching or dandruff appears on the scalp even after shampooing, the scalp is most likely inflamed. If the skin is delicate to begin with, or if the scalp is repeatedly colored or permed, the scalp’s barrier function is disrupted and itching and dandruff are more likely to occur. Glycyrrhizic acid and peony extract are effective in reducing inflammation, so be sure to check for the presence of such ingredients.

How to Choose a Scalp Serum (3) “Use a serum containing plant extracts to deal with odor and stickiness!

Plant-derived extracts such as tea leaf extract and tannin have deodorant effects, making them ideal for scalp odor care. For stickiness, papaya-derived ingredients and soy-derived ingredients suppress sebum. Excessive sebum secretion due to dryness is also a possibility, so a product with a high moisturizing effect would be more effective.

How to choose a scalp serum (4) “To improve hair loss and thinning hair, focus on anti-aging ingredients that promote blood circulation and other benefits!

Many men may become concerned about hair loss and thinning hair as they age. The scalp is an area that is not usually moved much, and blood flow tends to be poor, making it difficult for nutrients to reach the scalp and leading to hair loss and thinning. This is where ingredients with anti-aging effects come in handy. For example, “Assembli extract” and “ginger root extract” promote blood circulation and create a scalp environment where nutrients can easily reach hair, while “mulberry bark extract” and “bunjirou leaf extract,” which promote the hair cycle, help aging hair follicles. In addition, men who have not yet experienced hair loss or thinning hair problems may also begin to worry about these issues as their scalp environment deteriorates. In order to maintain their current hairstyles, it is recommended to incorporate anti-aging ingredients as a preventive measure.
