An itchy scalp, or pruritus, is an unpleasant sensation that makes you want to scratch; it can be localized or widespread, and becomes chronic after more than 6 weeks. This may be related to scalp conditions (eczema, psoriasis, seborrheic dermatitis) or to factors such as pollution, stress, temperature fluctuations, or inappropriate hair care products, which weaken and sensitize the scalp. This is referred to as an irritated, damaged, or reactive scalp.
As part of your daily routine, using gentle hair care products designed for sensitive scalps helps relieve and soothe irritation, reduce itching, and provide long-lasting relief for your scalp. Gently washing your hair with a shampoo for sensitive scalps or a soothing shampoo plays a key role in a sensitive scalp care routine.
When should the SENSINOL line be used?
When an itchy scalp is not related to a specific medical condition, it is often a sign of skin that has been weakened by everyday irritants: temperature fluctuations, stress, hard water, or unsuitable personal care products. This can sometimes result in an itchy scalp after washing or a scalp that is painful to the touch.
The SENSINOL line was developed to soothe an irritated scalp, relieve scalp itching, and restore comfort through a gentle skincare routine for sensitive scalps.
The SENSINOL hair care routine for irritated and sensitized scalps:
- SENSINOL physio-protective treatment shampoo, designed for sensitive scalps in need of soothing relief. From the very first use, it provides immediate relief and soothes itching.
- SENSINOL soothing and physio-protective serum is a leave-in treatment designed to be applied directly to very sensitive scalps prone to severe itching for immediate relief.
