4 Tips to Help Prevent Your Hair from Getting Weighed Down

Like we told you, the buildup of dirt and excessive oils on your scalp can weigh your hair down. And flat, greasy-looking hair can make anyone want to hide under a giant hat all day. But it doesn’t have to be that way. Just follow these tips!

1. Add an exfoliating scalp scrub to your hair care routine. Before shampooing and conditioning with the L'Oréal Paris EverFresh Anti-Dandruff Shampoo and L'Oréal Paris EverFresh Balancing Conditioner, gently massage the L'Oréal Paris EverFresh Micro-Exfoliating Scrub onto your scalp and rinse out.

2. Only apply conditioner to your ends. Speaking of conditioner, don’t go overboard! Just use it on your ends, since they tend to be drier than the rest of your mane.

3. Go easy on styling products. Since you now know that dirt and excessive oils can build up on your scalp, keep that in mind when you’re using styling products. Remember: A little goes a long way.

4. Wash your hair. Of course, some days you just don’t have the time to wash your hair. But you don’t want to wait too long to do so, since dirt and oils can build up. So, keep up a shampooing and conditioning routine.

The Bottom Line on Using a Scalp Scrub

If you’ve noticed that your strands have been falling flat lately, you may want to consider adding an exfoliating scalp scrub to your hair care routine. It can help remove impurities, flakes, and buildup from dirt and excessive oils from your scalp.
