FAQ - Your questions about dandruff removal
❓ Which hydrosol is best for eliminating dandruff?
Answer: Tea tree hydrosol is the most effective for eliminating dandruff. It is a powerful natural antifungal and antibacterial agent. Cedarwood and rosemary hydrosols are also excellent. Choose according to your type of dandruff and test to find your ideal hydrosol.
❓ How long before I see results?
Answer: The first visible results appear after 2-3 days of regular use. A visible reduction of 40-60% in dandruff can be seen after 1-2 weeks. A 70-90% reduction can be seen after 3-4 weeks.
❓ Can I use several hydrosols together?
Answer: Yes, you can mix several hydrosols for a synergistic effect. For example, tea tree + cedarwood for maximum elimination, or tea tree + lavender to eliminate while soothing.
❓ When is the best time to apply hydrosol?
Answer: The best time is after shampooing, on a clean scalp. You can use a daily spray in the morning and/or evening. A tonic lotion 2-3 times a week offers a more concentrated action.
❓ Are hydrosols suitable for all types of dandruff?
Answer: Yes, hydrosols are suitable for all types of dandruff. Simply choose the right hydrosol: tea tree for oily dandruff, lavender for dry dandruff, rosemary for combination dandruff.
❓Which hydrosols are best for oily hair?
For an oily scalp, the goal is to choose a hydrosol that both purifies and regulates sebum, in order to limit excess sebum without damaging the skin. Among the most suitable natural solutions, cedar hydrosol is an excellent sebum regulator: it helps to cleanse the oily scalp and space out washes.
Rosemary hydrosol complements this approach very well thanks to its purifying and toning properties, which are ideal when the roots quickly become greasy and you want to stimulate growth at the same time. For a feeling of freshness and a regulating effect, peppermint hydrosol is often appreciated, especially in purifying lotions applied to the oily scalp after shampooing.
When the scalp is both oily and prone to discomfort, sage hydrosol is beneficial for its regulating properties, and tea tree hydrosol can be chosen for its cleansing effect, always as part of a gentle and regular routine. Depending on your needs, you can use a hydrosol alone or alternately as a purifying lotion, targeting the oily scalp and massaging for a few seconds to promote balance.
What are the benefits of hydrosols? The main benefits and properties depend on the desired outcome: a purifying hydrosol helps cleanse, a soothing hydrosol improves comfort, and a regulating hydrosol helps reduce sebum and balance the scalp.
Some hydrosols can also stimulate growth, strengthen the hair fiber, and provide nourishment, which is useful if the roots are oily but the lengths remain fragile. Finally, if your concern is both an oily scalp and hair loss, the approach to hair loss must remain comprehensive, but certain hydrosols such as rosemary can be incorporated into a regular routine to provide support.
❓ Can I use hydrosols if I am pregnant?
Answer: Yes, hydrosols are very safe during pregnancy. They are gentle and natural. However, consult your doctor if you have any specific concerns.
❓ How should hydrosols be stored?
Answer: Store hydrosols in a glass bottle away from light at room temperature. Shelf life: 6-12 months after opening. Check the smell and appearance regularly.
❓ Can I mix hydrosols with other products?
Answer: Yes, hydrosols combine perfectly with natural oils, masks, serums, and shampoos. You can create your own recipes for synergistic action.
❓ Can hydrosols replace medical treatment?
Answer: Hydrosols are effective natural treatments for eliminating dandruff. However, if you suffer from a serious medical condition, consult a dermatologist. Hydrosols complement medical treatments.
❓ How much does an anti-dandruff routine cost?
Answer: Hydrosols are very affordable. A 200ml bottle costs between €10 and €20 and lasts 1-2 months. A complete routine costs around €30-50 per month. Excellent value for money for long-lasting results.
