Did you know it’s estimated that 42% of the UK population are conscious about a scalp issue? Having a sensitive scalp can mean a number of different things; you could be prone to dandruff, itchiness, tenderness, or perhaps even psoriasis on your scalp.
While you may experience sensitivity in different ways, each concern can have a big impact on your overall feeling of wellbeing. It can be difficult to identify the root cause of your sensitive scalp and you may be left feeling confused or frustrated.
Synthetic fragrance is the number one cause of skin reactions to cosmetics and the majority of mainstream hair care products are the most heavily scented beauty products on the market. A likely cause of a sensitive scalp is the use of harsh detergents in your shampoo and conditioner. Sodium Lauryl Sulphate (SLS) is a well-known irritant, even for those who don’t normally suffer from sensitive skin. Thankfully, all Green People shampoos and conditioners are 100% SLS-free and use naturally-derived foaming agents that are gentle on even the most sensitive skin.
