What NOT to Use for Dry Scalp Care

Dry scalp is more common than you think—chances are, you’ve dealt with it, too. It’s itchy, flaky, and can be uncomfortable. But taking care of your scalp doesn’t have to be complicated. With the right products, you can get it back to being hydrated and healthy. Let’s break down how to do it, the Cécred way.

What Triggers Dry Scalp?

Just like the skin on your face, your scalp needs moisture, care, and the right balance of oils. Dry scalp happens when it’s stripped of those natural oils, either because of the weather, too much heat, or harsh products. Stress, diet, and even dehydration play a role, too. If you’re not drinking enough water or dealing with a lot of stress, your scalp will let you know. 

How Do You Get Rid of Dry Scalp?

To get rid of dry scalp, focus on restoring the scalp’s natural barrier and hydration levels. Healing your dry scalp can be simple.So why not make it a luxurious self care experience? 

Start with Cécred’s Clarifying Shampoo & Scalp Scrub to exfoliate the scalp. It works by removing the buildup and dead skin that’s blocking moisture from getting in. The formula combines invigorating tea tree, lemon, and peppermint notes with herbaceous rosemary, delivering a relaxing experience. 

After that, use Cécred’s Hydrating Shampoo to complete the Cécred Double Cleanse. This shampoo restores moisture back to the strands, nourishing your hair and making it easy to manage.

How Do I Hydrate My Scalp?

Hydrating the scalp means restoring the moisture it loses through daily styling, environmental exposure, and product buildup. Treat your scalp with high-performing ingredients to help it stay healthy and hydrated.

A gentle cleanser like Cécred’s Hydrating Shampoo helps rebalance the scalp by replenishing hydration with hyaluronic acid–and without stripping away its natural oils. 

Following up with Cécred’s Nourishing Hair Oil, which locks in hydration, soothes any dryness, and adds soft shine to your hair. Free of silicones, this nourishing blend features 13 luxurious oils–including sea buckthorn, baobab, moringa, black seed, watermelon seed, sweet almond, flaxseed, and golden jojoba– and no silicones to reinforce your scalp’s natural moisture barrier. 

What Not to Use for Dry Scalp?

For dry scalp, it’s just as important to know what to avoid as it is to know what to use. Stay away from shampoos that contain harsh sulfates, as they can strip your scalp of its natural oils and make dryness worse. Overusing dry shampoos or heavy styling products can also lead to buildup, blocking moisture from getting in. And while it may be tempting, avoid scratching or using sharp tools on the scalp—this can cause irritation and even small abrasions, making the problem harder to manage. Instead, focus on gentle, nourishing care that supports the scalp’s natural balance
