Hair care experts provide guidance on scalp health and hair maintenance

Experts and hair care specialists have provided guidance on maintaining scalp and hair health for different hair types and lifestyles.

For athletes and active individuals, intense physical activity can lead to excessive sweat, which may cause oily hair, itching, and dandruff if not managed properly. Experts suggest maintaining scalp cleanliness, using appropriate shampoos—such as those containing niacinamide—and supporting hair health through proper hydration, diet, and rest.

For those with natural curly hair, the primary challenges are dryness and lack of definition due to uneven distribution of natural oils. Recommendations include understanding hair porosity and washing hair less frequently—ideally once a week or every two to three weeks—to preserve moisture. Using specialized products and intensive hydration techniques are also advised to manage various curl patterns.
