Scalp Microbiome and Hair Health
The Scalp Ecosystem
Your scalp hosts a diverse community of bacteria and fungi. Malassezia becomes problematic when it overgrows.
Signs of Microbiome Imbalance
Excessive flaking, itching, oiliness, and scalp odor all indicate microbial imbalance.
Prebiotic Scalp Care
Prebiotic ingredients like inulin feed beneficial scalp bacteria and maintain scalp pH.
Probiotic Topicals
Products containing Lactobacillus ferment introduce beneficial metabolites that calm inflammation.
What Damages the Scalp Biome
Over-washing with sulfates, frequent dry shampoo use, and hot water all disrupt microbial balance.
Diet and Scalp Health
Omega-3 fatty acids and zinc support a healthy scalp microbiome from within.
