Hair concerns

Flaky scalp, itchiness, or greasy roots—these could be early signs of scalp trouble. In this article, we’ll explore the most common scalp issues and share 3 key warning signs that indicate it’s time to take action.

If you’ve ever wondered, “Do I really need scalp cleansing?” or “Is scalp care for me?”, this guide is for you.

3 Signs Your Scalp Needs Attention

1. Flakiness & Itching – Dryness or Product Buildup Could Be the Cause

Do you notice white flakes on your shoulders or feel constant itching?

This could be caused by dryness, excessive oil, or shampoo residue that hasn’t been rinsed out properly. If left untreated, these symptoms can lead to inflammation or even hair thinning over time.

2. Oily Scalp & Odor – A Sign of Clogged Pores and Oxidized Sebum

Does your scalp feel greasy at the end of the day? Do you notice an unpleasant smell when removing your hat?

These could be signs of oxidised oils and clogged pores, which can’t be fixed with regular shampooing alone. A proper scalp cleanse is essential to reset the scalp environment.

3. Lack of Volume – Poor Circulation May Be Weakening Hair Roots

Is your hair falling flat or looking limp at the roots? Do you see your part line widening? These are common signs of poor scalp circulation or fatigue. A relaxing head spa can stimulate blood flow and support stronger, healthier hair.
