Have you ever exfoliated your skin with your favorite scrub? In addition to the pleasant smell, that smooth feeling is almost addictive and is mostly the reason why we repeat the process once a week. But did you know, that you can treat your scalp to the same weekly luxury?
Scalp scrubs are a little new to the scene but they have proven to be a necessary part of your weekly hair care routine. Your scalp is just like your skin, in fact, it is skin that needs special treatment as well. A scalp scrub is one of the best ways to exfoliate your scalp without causing any damage. Below there’s a bomb recipe for a deep exfoliating scalp scrub.
What You’ll Need
½ cup coarse sea salt
3 tablespoons avocado oil
3 tablespoons ACV(apple cider vinegar)
2 drops tea tree oil
How To Use It
Mix all ingredients together. Before you shampoo and condition your hair, section hair off into 4 sections. Lightly mist hair and apply the scrub to each section. Once your entire scalp is covered, gently massage the scrub with your fingertips. Be careful not to rub your scalp too hard to avoid causing any irritation.
The Benefits
Besides having a scalp that feels great, using a scalp scrub has a few other amazing benefits. One of the most notable being a relief for dryness and itchiness. Other benefits include the promotion of healthy hair growth, deep removal of product buildup, and in some cases it can treat minor hair loss.
