Soothing to the scalp

-

There are many types of scalp conditions that vary from mild to severe. An itchy scalp is a common problem and can be caused by various reasons.

Skin diseases such as psoriasis, eczema and seborrheic dermatitis can also cause an itchy scalp.

dandruff is the most common. It is caused by an overgrowth of fungus called Malassezia – a type of yeast – on the scalp. the result is in an increased shedding and flaking of dead skin cells from the scalp.

Stress, poor diet and even allergic reaction to certain foods can be responsibl­e for excessive build-up of dead skin cells. People with dandruff may experience redness, itchiness and irritation­s on the scalp. the most severe form of dandruff is referred to as seborrheic dermatitis.

Scalp problems are commonly treated with medicated shampoo that contains active ingredient­s such as zinc pyrithione, coal tar, selenium sulfide or salicylic acid. however, the government has issued warnings to workers handling zinc pyrithione, as it is an active ingredient in anti-fouling boat paints and pesticides. Yet it is used in many “Scalp Care” shampoo.

MooGoo has been a popular Australian brand specialisi­ng in skin and personal care products made from chemical-free ingredient­s.

MooGoo is strongly against using chemicals or harsh ingredient­s that are damaging to the skin, though the results in treating dandruff is effective. MooGoo has developed a range of hair care products using only natural ingredient­s that are safe and gentle yet effective.
