Scalp care: why scalp is just as important as skincare
When we talk about skincare, we immediately think about the face and body. The scalp, unfortunately, is often neglected in the beauty routine. However, the scalp is the foundation for healthy hair and deserves as much attention as the skin. Scalp health can directly impact hair health, including growth and overall appearance.
The secret to healthy, beautiful hair lies in a balanced, well-maintained scalp. Let’s explore how to improve scalp health, why it’s an essential part of your haircare routine, and learn more about Christophe Robin’s selection of scalp treatments. Discover tips and products that promote a healthy scalp and will help your hair thrive.
Why Is Scalp Care Essential and How to Improve Its Health?
Each hair type requires a different treatment: hydration, colour protection, volume, or nutrition. But they all share a common need: hair care for the scalp. A healthy scalp is essential for achieving beautiful hair and stimulating hair growth.
The scalp plays a key role in the health and growth of your hair. When the scalp is unbalanced, whether too dry or too oily, it can lead to issues like poor growth, itching, brittle hair, and even premature hair loss. That’s why adopting the right routine is crucial for ensuring long-term hair health.
Unfortunately, modern lifestyles put the scalp through challenging ordeals: pollution, stress, product build-up, or over-frequent washing. These factors disrupt the scalp’s natural balance, affecting sebum production and weakening the skin barrier.
To restore balance and stimulate hair growth, it’s important to establish a targeted hair and scalp care routine. Christophe Robin offers exceptional scalp care treatments, including the Cleansing Purifying Scrub with Sea Salt and the Hydrating Cream Scrub with Aloe Vera.

1) The Cleansing Purifying Scrub with Sea SaltKickstart your scalp treatment for hair growth with a deep-cleansing product. Christophe Robin’s best-seller is particularly recommended for oily and sensitive scalps.
The Cleansing Purifying Scrub is an exfoliating shampoo that eliminates impurities, product residues, and excess sebum. It deeply purifies the scalp, restoring its natural balance to create the perfect foundation for a healthy scalp.
How to use: Once a week, apply a small amount of the product to wet hair. Gently massage using circular movements, then rinse thoroughly. For optimal results, follow with the Detangling Conditioner Gelée with sea minerals to hydrate, remineralize, and soften the hair.
For those with sensitive or dry scalps, the Hydrating Cream Scrub is the ideal choice. This pre-shampoo scrub is a good alternative to the purifying scrub, delivering hydration and exfoliation while helping to improve scalp health.
At the heart of the formula is aloe vera, a natural ingredient renowned for its unique moisturizing properties. Aloe vera intensely hydrates and soothes the scalp, making it an effective solution for those searching for a gentle scalp treatment.
How to use: Once a week, generously apply the scrub to dry hair. Massage using circular movements, leave on for 5 to 10 minutes, then rinse thoroughly. Follow with a shampoo and mask tailored to your needs.
Regular conditioning
Taking care of your scalp is essential for improving scalp hair growth and promoting healthier, stronger hair. However, this doesn’t mean neglecting your lengths specific needs. After caring for your scalp, follow up with nourishing conditioners or hair masks to hydrate, regenerate, or detangle your hair.
Daily brushing
Daily brushing is a key step in any haircare routine, not only for maintaining your hair’s appearance but also for promoting overall scalp health. Brushing stimulates blood circulation, which in turn promotes hair growth by delivering nutrients to the hair follicles. It also oxygenates the scalp and helps remove impurities, product build-up, and dead skin cells. To get the most benefits, use a natural hairbrush and make it a daily habit.
Scalp massage
Another often-overlooked step in your haircare routine is regular scalp massage. Every time you wash your hair, spend a few minutes massaging your scalp with your fingertips. This simple step not only stimulates the blood supply, which encourages hair growth, but also ensures your scalp is thoroughly cleansed.
Beyond the physical benefits, scalp massage can also be a moment of self-care, allowing you to relax and give yourself some love. Whether you’re in the shower or applying a scalp treatment, make scalp massage a consistent part of your routine to maximize cleanliness, promote healthy hair growth, and unwind.
