 Indoor heating is a dehydrator for your scalp; don't let the air steal your moisture.

For those of you who live in New York, Boston, or Chicago, the most torturous part of winter in the eastern U.S. is often not the blizzard outside, but the endless, fire-inducing indoorHeating System。

Many Asians find that once the warm season starts, their scalp begins toItchyThe powder is even fine and crumbly.Dry DandruffHair is even more "powerful", and when you take off your sweater, it will explode into a sea urchin. Do you think you can buy a humidifier and everything will be fine? As a HAO Hair Days I'll tell you what else you need to keep your scalp alive in the "dry indoor desert" that is the U.S. East.

1. The Truth About Heated Rooms: Why a Humidifier Won't Save Your Dandruff

A humidifier can add moisture to the air, but it won't fix your heat-dried skin.Scalp BarrierThe warmth of the air removes the natural sebum membrane from the surface of the scalp. Warm air removes the natural sebaceous film from the scalp's surface, causing water to seep through and evaporate from the inside (TEWL). When the scalp cuticle dries out and flakes off, small "dry flakes" form.

It's not because you're not clean, it's because your scalp is "thirsty".

2. Two "survival items" you must have besides a humidifier

First: Scalp Serum/Treatment

Imagine that in the winter you rub serums and creams on your face, but what do you do to your scalp?

  • Why do you need it: What your scalp needs in a heated room is "active hydration". You need a moisturizer that containsHyaluronic Acid (Hyaluronic Acid)、Ceramide or Aloe Vera ExtractThe water-based base of the Essence.

  • HAO Days recommends: Look for the label at the U.S. East Pharmacy or Sephora. “Scalp Hydrator” 或 “Soothe & Calm” It is a product that can be used to treat dryness and itchiness. Massage into the scalp after shampooing and it creates a "synthetic hydrating film" on the scalp to eliminate itchiness.

Second: Boar Bristle Brush

This is the strongest physical plug-in against "heating static".

  • Why do you need it: The plastic comb rubs against dry hair creating a large positive charge that sends hair flying. Natural pig bristles, which are similar in structure to Asian coarse hair, carry the natural oils (Sebum)** secreted by the scalp through the comb to the middle and ends of the hair.

  • Amazing effect: Grease is a natural anti-static agent. Brush your hair 50 times a day before going to bed and you'll see a reduction in static electricity and your hair will fall naturally, no longer spraying like dead grass.
