With so many hair products out there that promise amazing miracles, it's easy to forget something that's actually really important--your scalp.
Healthy hair starts at the scalp, so it makes sense to take care of it. Philip Kingsley is an incredible haircare company that sells some great products. Recently, they've come out with some products that are made specifically for your scalp.
As a lady with crazily dry skin (and therefore a very dry and flaky scalp), I was super excited to give the products a try.
Their Flaky Itchy Scalp Shampoo is simply fabulous. It's won oodles of awards, and after using it I can see why. It works specifically to relieve and clear flaking and/or itchy scalps. After just one use, the difference was immediately noticeable! There were significantly less flakes and my scalp felt tingly fresh. In the past, when I've tried other dandruff/dry scalp shampoos, I've noticed that my hair tends to feels very coarse and always seems to be more difficult to manage. But somehow, this stuff gets the job done and leaves my hair shiny and very easy to style.
Another product I'm loving? The Flaky Itchy Scalp Toner. You're supposed to use this post shampoo, and you do not rinse it out. After washing and conditioning, part your hair into 3-inch sections and use the nozzle on the bottle to apply the toner all over the scalp. The toner has anti-bacterial and anti-flaking properties and really delivers on its promise to provide long-lasting relief from irritation. You can also use it between washes if the flakes and itching returns. It's worth keeping small bottle of it with you at all times to relieve any itchiness that might come up during the day.
Both products are absolutely fantastic!
I've teamed up with Philip Kingsley to do a small giveaway! I have a few trial-size Flaky Itchy Scalp Shampoo packets to give away to some lucky readers. Each trial comes with enough shampoo for three separate washes.
To enter the giveaway send an email to sassyalana@gmail.com with the subject line reading "PHILIP KINGSLEY". The giveaway ends 9/23 and the winners will be alerted via email.
To buy the products on your own (which I strongly recommend!), check out the Philip Kingsley website. The Scalp Shampoo retails for $35, and the Toner is $31. If you want to try out some of their other products, I'm crazily obsessed with their Re-Moisturizing Shampoo and Conditioner. Both products work together to make hair feel healthy and look gorgeous!
