Let me talk about how to choose a professional shampoo first.
First of all, understand your scalp problems and hair care needs. Second, see if shampoo contains corresponding hair care ingredients and corresponding efficacy data. Finally, the harmful components (which will lead to scalp hair loss) are screened out.
The process of following this step is to put aside the phenomenon and look at the essence, which can greatly improve the chance of choosing the right shampoo.
In order to let everyone know what to look at when choosing shampoos with various functions, I chose ten popular shampoos and made a simple evaluation today. Time is limited, so we only chose ten shampoos. We mainly look at creativity. I hope everyone can learn something.
The ten shampoos I choose are: Sassoon Restoring Water Sample Shampoo, Zi Yuan Ginger Shampoo, Oil Control Shampoo, Lv, Ocean Supreme Oil Control Shampoo, Anti-stripping Shampoo, Qingyoutang Jianfa Shampoo, Head & Shoulders Anti-dandruff Shampoo, Adolphe Ginger Shampoo and Dove Shampoo.
First, common scalp problems
Knowing your hair quality and existing problems is the first step in choosing shampoo.
dandruff
The most common problem on the scalp should be dandruff, and the itching, dryness and irritation associated with it.
Dandruff is the result of scalp inflammation. Studies have confirmed that dandruff is related to the abnormal increase of Malassezia on the scalp surface. Excessive exfoliation of keratinocytes will break the skin barrier and make the scalp sensitive, and other harmful factors are easy to invade. The study also found that dandruff patients have more hair loss.
Inhibition of Malassezia is a very effective method to improve dandruff, and there are usually the following methods.
1, sulfur soap shampoo, has a certain inhibitory effect on fungi, but it is also irritating.
2, dandruff shampoo, this kind of shampoo will generally add ZPT, OPT, OCT.
3. Some Chinese herbal medicines also have antifungal effect, but the price increase is very severe.
Among these shampoos, Haiyang Supreme has the most outstanding anti-dandruff ability, and the inhibition rate of Malassezia is over 92%.
It is a dandruff shampoo specially developed by Qingneng Institute of Chinese Academy of Sciences. In addition to the conventional anti-dandruff component OCT, an antibacterial peptide specifically targeting Malassezia was added. OCT+ antibacterial peptide double dandruff removal, dandruff removal without trace!
hair oil
The main reason why hair is too oily is that sebaceous glands in scalp hair follicles are too strong.
At present, it is found that the abnormal secretion of sebaceous glands in scalp is related to the reproduction of bacteria and mites in scalp.
Mites on the scalp will continue to eat hair follicle oil for their own reproduction, and will secrete lipolytic enzymes after eating scalp oil.
Lipolytic enzymes can stimulate the scalp to produce more oil, forming a vicious circle, leading to more and more head mites and oily hair.
In this case, if you want to control oil, you can use some shampoo with anti-mite function every day.
There are not many mite-killing shampoos on the market, but you can try to find one with a mite-killing rate above 99%, so that the speed of mite-killing can exceed the speed of mite reproduction.
Among the 10 shampoos evaluated this time, only Fang Xin has the acaricidal effect, with the acaricidal rate of 99.66% and the oil control rate of 98.28%.
Hair oil is so serious that many oil control shampoos can't control it. Most people ignore mites. You can try anti-mite shampoo!
Does frequent shampooing lead to an increase in "reactive secretion" of head oil? There is no authoritative research evidence to support this statement.
lose hair
There are many reasons for hair loss.
Internal cause: androgen secretion; Hair follicle malnutrition ... external causes: too much scalp oil and dandruff, and the scalp environment is not good; Be stimulated (chemically) ...
A qualified shampoo should have three requirements: supplementing scalp nutrition, improving scalp environment (cleaning power and dandruff removal power), being mild and not irritating.
Among the ten shampoos this time, NEBE anti-stripping shampoo and Qingyoutang Jianfa shampoo can just meet these three requirements.
A variety of herbal extracts provide sufficient nourishing, gentle dandruff removal and oil control components for scalp, ensuring a refreshing scalp environment without irritating additives.
Among them, NEBE anti-stripping shampoo has been tested by anti-stripping human body, and the anti-stripping effect has been proved to be true and effective.
After 12 weeks, the hair loss of 96% subjects was significantly reduced.
If hair loss is serious, you can choose shampoo according to this standard, and it is best to have human experimental data like NEBE!
However, it should be noted that this anti-stripping shampoo is only a "preventive" product to offset the existing problems of the scalp.
Can only reduce hair loss to a certain extent, and is suitable for mild and moderate hair loss.
If your hair loss is already serious, grab it, or you want to not only prevent hair loss, but also increase your hair.
Then you need to use it with hair care products, both ways!
The essential difference between hair care products and anti-shedding products is that hair care products will pay more attention to activating hair follicles!
People with severe hair loss usually have low hair follicle activity, so it is difficult to keep their hair and grow new hair.
Second, the screening of risk components
These ingredients are found in many shampoos, so it is not necessary to "talk about the tiger's color change", and friends with sensitive scalp should pay more attention.
Third, the efficacy of the corresponding ingredients, as well as data.
It is generally believed that shampoo with many active ingredients will play a more comprehensive role if various ingredients cooperate with each other.
Of the ten shampoos, five officially provided detailed data of human body tests conducted by third-party institutions, among which Head & Shoulders has the most obvious dandruff removal and oil control effect, followed by Fang Xin.
Salicylic acid added by Sassoon has a good anti-dandruff effect, but it contains irritating preservatives. The anti-dandruff ingredient is not mild OCT, but clomibazole with strong irritation, which is harmful to scalp, but its anti-dandruff ability is really strong. When you wash your hair, you will feel cool and clean. If your scalp is not sensitive, it can still be used.
Dove is the best moisturizing ingredient in all shampoos, but the added oleic acid is a high risk ingredient for acne, and many people will itch after using it.
IV. Comparison of PH value of shampoo
The PH value of shampoo is generally between 4.0 and 8.0.
Which is better? We can't generalize. Shampoos with different PH values should be used for different skin types.
People with dry hair are more suitable to use weakly acidic shampoo with PH 4.5-5.5, and alkaline shampoo with PH greater than 8 should never be used, otherwise it will accelerate hair aging and even fall off.
Both Fang Xin and Qingyou Hall are acceptable. I like to choose fresh Fang Xin.
Practical experience of verb (abbreviation of verb)
Fang Xin Oil Control Shampoo controls oil, removes dandruff and prevents shedding.
Main ingredients: OCT, allantoin, Schizosaccharomyces, panthenol.
Material: green transparent gel
Smell: wormwood.
Use feeling:
I have also used many oil control shampoos, and the effect is not good. This shampoo is the one with the best oil control data and use effect I have encountered so far. Used many bottles, recommended to many people.
This is mainly because it has a very good bactericidal and acaricidal effect and a high inhibition rate on 5α- reductase. In the laboratory test standard, the higher the inhibition rate of 5α- reductase, the better the oil control effect of shampoo.
The sterilization rate is 90%, the mite removal rate is 99.66%, and the inhibition rate of 5α- reductase is 98.28%.
OCT is a mild and effective anti-dandruff component. As mentioned earlier, dandruff and hair oil are reduced, the scalp environment will naturally improve, the scalp environment will improve, and hair loss will also decrease.
In addition, as mentioned earlier, 5α- reductase is an enzyme that converts testosterone into more effective androgen DHT, which can lead to hair loss.
Therefore, long-term use of this shampoo is also effective for androgen alopecia.
One of my male colleagues has androgenetic alopecia and has been using this shampoo. According to him, it is effective. Although the hair is not long, it is much less than before.
If you have a lot of scalp problems, or have difficulty in choosing, and feel that you want some effect, this shampoo is very suitable for you.
Ocean Supreme Oil Control Shampoo controls oil, removes crumbs and leaves fragrance.
Main components of cleaning debris: OCT+ antibacterial peptide.
Texture: light green transparent emulsion texture, strong fluidity.
Smell: Fresh fruit.
Use feeling:
This shampoo is developed by Qingneng Institute of Chinese Academy of Sciences, and it has no other effect, but few shampoo can surpass it in dandruff removal.
A boyfriend is the kind of greasy head that can hardly wash his hair.
Once I went out to eat with him and saw his dandruff floating into the dish with my own eyes. ...
I checked his scalp, and Malassezia was seriously exceeding the standard. When I got back, I found him this shampoo with strong oil control and dandruff removal.
The inhibition rate of Malassezia is above 92%, which is one of the best in all shampoos, not only in these bottles of shampoos I evaluated.
In less than a week, the scalp is much cleaner, and although it can still scratch down, it will not float down.
It hasn't been more than a month since the scalp was washed to this degree.
There is a reason why this shampoo has such a strong anti-dandruff effect.
In addition to the common OCT, antibacterial peptides are creatively added.
Antimicrobial peptides: Different antimicrobial peptides can kill different targets. Adding antimicrobial peptides to shampoo can effectively kill harmful bacteria on scalp, especially Malassezia.
Therefore, the inhibition rate of Malassezia can exceed 92%, while that of Malassezia in Fang Xin is only over 50%.
In addition to its efficacy, its fragrance is quite good. Every time I walk with my boyfriend, I think his hair smells good.
In short, if your dandruff problem is more prominent, you should first choose Ocean Supreme Oil Control Shampoo.
NEBE anti-stripping shampoo anti-stripping anti-dandruff
Main ingredients: lactic acid alcohol, OCT, Ginseng, Platycladus orientalis, Ligustrum lucidum, citric acid.
Texture: ginger translucent paste, weak fluidity.
Smell: light ginger, tasteless after washing.
Use feeling:
Seriously, there are at least a dozen anti-shedding shampoos used by doctors in this high-risk hair loss occupation. They are all certified anti-shedding shampoos with hard ingredients, but after several years of use, this shampoo has the most stable effect.
Ginger root and Platycladus orientalis leaves added to this shampoo are very effective ingredients for inhibiting androgen.
It can also nourish the scalp while inhibiting androgen.
Lactic acid alcohol, OCT and citric acid cooperate with each other, and excess grease and dandruff on the scalp are also washed clean.
A good scalp environment is the premise to prevent shedding.
This shampoo gives me the feeling that "the road is very simple", unlike other shampoos, it makes the scalp cold and smells delicious.
It's almost like washing with water, gentle and without burden.
You can obviously feel the anti-drop effect in a week or so. Before I use it, clean the bathroom floor drain once every three days, otherwise the bath water will not flow down. When I first started using this shampoo, it took me a week to remember that I forgot to clean my hair on the floor and the floor drain was not blocked.
Long-term use of anti-shedding effect is still obvious, not to mention the anti-shedding effect is still supported by human experiments, which is very suitable for friends who are prone to hair loss.
Ounayi hair care liquid
Although it's a shampoo evaluation, I think many bald er should need this hair tonic, so I'll briefly talk about it here.
It is suitable for severe alopecia and mild alopecia. Daily anti-alopecia shampoo is enough.
Main ingredients: hydrolyzed oat protein, ginseng and Polygonum multiflorum Thunb.
Texture: spray
Smell: vanilla fragrance
Use feeling:
It is very convenient to use. Just spray it on the hairline and hairline twice every morning and evening. It absorbs well, has no greasy feeling, and tastes faint fragrance.
Anti-shedding+hair care two-pronged approach, the effect is much better than using anti-shedding shampoo alone.
But it should be noted that spraying on the scalp and hair roots is useless.
A colleague in our department has been using this, but she uses it crazily. It's like putting it in her bag and spraying it from time to time She always smells of Chinese medicine. I often don't see her. I have to smell her first, but I have to say that people's hair seams are really thick It's time to tie up their hair. The little fluff at the hairline really embellishes the face!
The cost performance of this hair tonic is also worth mentioning!
Every time I go to the barber shop, I will be asked if I want to spray 100 or more "hair tonic" ... As a doctor, I really don't understand. Is it useful to spray once? Is jet water so expensive? Pure deception is a great injustice, and one can be slaughtered.
This hair care liquid is a professional hair care liquid that has been personally tested and has a hair care certificate. Just a few tens of dollars a bottle, just spray it for a month or two.
Friends with serious hair loss, sparse hair and wide hair seams, your hair can still be saved!
Use anti-stripping shampoo+hair tonic, and stick to it!
Six some cold knowledge about hair
Hair grows super slow, what's the good idea?
People think that eating kidney-tonifying foods, such as walnuts, medlar and black sesame seeds, can accelerate hair growth. ...
How can you lose your hair by losing weight?
If the supply in protein can't keep up, it will easily lead to hair loss. If the body fat content is low to a certain extent, it will also lead to imbalance of hormone secretion, which will easily lead to hair loss.
How to solve hair static electricity?
This is mainly caused by roughness, and the use of products containing moisturizing and nourishing ingredients can increase the water content of hair; Using hair mask or conditioner may reduce the generation of static electricity; Comb your hair with a wooden comb. In this evaluation, Fang Xin Oil Control Shampoo also contains allantoin, Schizosaccharomyces, panthenol and other moisturizing ingredients. If your hair is as dry as a scarecrow, switch to this hydrating shampoo and use it conditionally with the hair mask.
Should scalp and hair be cared for separately?
Theoretically, it should be separated, but it is difficult to do it in practice, but shampoo and hair mask products are usually harmless to the scalp, so try to separate them as much as possible. However, hair dyeing products should strictly avoid touching the scalp.
