Did you know your scalp ages faster than the skin on your face?
We spend so much time (and effort) protecting our skin — yet many forget that the scalp needs just as much love. After all, healthy hair starts with a healthy scalp.
In Dubai’s unique climate — with intense sun, mineral-heavy water, and constant exposure to heat styling — it’s more important than ever to protect and nourish your scalp. Here are our top 4 expert tips to keep your scalp healthy and help prevent hair thinning:
1. Nourish from Within
What you put into your body shows up in your hair and scalp. Eating a balanced diet rich in vitamins, minerals, and healthy fats can do wonders for hair growth and scalp health. Think leafy greens, nuts and seeds, lean proteins, omega-3s, and plenty of water.
2. Protect Against UV & Heat
Dubai’s sun can be harsh, and UV rays can cause your scalp to dry out, age faster, and lead to inflammation — which can weaken hair follicles. When out in the sun, wear a chic hat or use a UV-protective hair product to shield your scalp and hair.
3. Invest in Quality Haircare
Using good-quality, sulphate-free, and nourishing hair products makes all the difference. Harsh detergents strip the scalp’s natural oils, causing imbalance and irritation. Choose salon-recommended products that cleanse gently and strengthen both scalp and hair.
4. Treat Yourself to Scalp Massages
Regular scalp massages stimulate blood flow, encourage hair growth, and release tension. Even just a few minutes of gentle massage during your wash or in the salon can boost circulation and nourish hair follicles.
Don’t neglect your scalp — your hair will thank you.
