Anyone with a skin care routine knows that exfoliation contributes to clearer, smoother, healthier skin. Exfoliation is also necessary when it comes to your scalp and your ability to boost hair growth<\/a><\/strong>. When you scrub your scalp with natural ingredients, you help to unclog hair follicles and get rid of any built-up dead skin cells or oils that get in the way of you having luscious locks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While hair loss is much more prevalent in men, both men and women commonly experience pattern hair loss at some point in life. Women tend to experience thinning hair or hair loss in different patterns than men, and it happens much later in life for them. Experts believe that hormonal issues play a role in female hair loss. Men, on the other hand, can lose hair early on in life and about 95% of male hair loss is due to androgenetic alopecia. This is a genetic trait that causes receding hairline, thinning hair, or pattern baldness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Scalp\u2019s Role In Hair Growth<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you don\u2019t regularly scrub your scalp<\/a>, you can kiss your dreams of thick hair goodbye. Just like your skin, the scalp has a dermis and an epidermis, but it also has a large concentration<\/a> of terminal hair follicles. Diet, medications, illnesses, and hormones, can alter the growth cycle of these hair follicles. According to scientific research, a healthy and balanced diet plays a major role in the health of hair follicles, hair thickness, and the survival of hair.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why Should You Scrub Your Scalp?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

As we mentioned earlier, dead skin cells, oil, dirt, and grease can accumulate on the scalp, blocking pores and contributing to unhealthy hair. Exfoliating your scalp helps to remove all that build-up and naturally balance your scalp\u2019s pH level<\/a>. When you massage the scrub into your scalp it helps to increase blood flow, and several studies show that better circulation<\/a> to the scalp boosts hair growth<\/a>. Try the following scalp scrubs to strengthen, grow, and protect your hair.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pink Salt Scalp Scrub<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Himalayan pink salt helps to scrub away dead skin cells<\/a> and dandruff, unclogging hair follicles in the process. By exfoliating the scalp, the pink salt helps to boost the penetration of other ingredients to your hair follicles. The peppermint<\/a> essential oil also aids with exfoliation, but it works to unclog hair follicles and make your hair shinier. Finally, the coconut oil helps to nourish the scalp<\/a> and strengthen your hair.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
