You have been using a new shampoo that feels good for a few weeks now, but one morning, you start to have some doubts about its real effectiveness or at least its compatibility with your hair. Flat hair, dandruff, oily roots ... Do you really use the right product or do you have to change to a mild shampoo? We take stock with the dermatologist Didier Coustou on the five signs that give the alert.

YOUR HAIR IS SUBASSELY FAT

You have just changed your shampoo and since two or three washes you feel that your hair quickly asks for a little fresh air? Do not look, your new shampoo is the cause! Add to that the external elements such as stress, hormonal disorders and pollution and your scalp suffocates! In this case, it is better to favor soft or even neutral products. The additives will come to weigh down the hair and grease it more quickly, as much avoid them!

YOUR HAIR IS SUBSEQUENTLY DRY

Your rather normal hair suddenly starts to become dry, brittle ... You have more and more trouble disentangling them ... Again, it's time to change your hair routine. To avoid in this case formulas based on silicone that smooth and sheath but smother the hair. Know also that sulphates can be the cause of your worries. Finally, a reminder: washing the hair too often weakens the scalp and scale. And if you have hair of a fairly dry nature, the straw boot effect is never far away!

YOUR HAIR IS WON BY THE FORKS

We all had pitchforks at one time. Stop this capillary heresy that consists of splitting your damaged spikes! This phenomenon is due to premature aging of the hair. An aggressive shampoo, too vigorous brushing and overheating of the mane will weaken the keratin inside the hair. It is therefore recommended to get a mild shampoo, nourishing or restorative if you have the roots that tend to grease. In addition, once or twice a week, as needed, make a mask before shampooing to protect sensitive parts during washing. Last solution, the method of Blake Lively for brilliant ripples: to smear the tips of coconut oil before washing. The star ensures that the material protects its beautiful hair of limestone and washing products while making it silky. Up to you…

YOUR SCALP LEATHER SCRATCHES YOU

Tingling, itching and small red patches are things to consider. The use of a bad shampoo can result in this type of skin reactions. Therefore, if you do not have an illness properly speaking, such as eczema or psoriasis for which there are suitable shampoos, then your shampoo is just not for you.

YOUR SCALP LEATHER WITH FILMS

This is not the most beautiful and eventually it can become a great psychological and aesthetic embarrassment. If you are not used to having those little dead skin that invade your roots, then it's probably the fault of your shampoo. It may be that you rinse badly but also that your washing product attacks your scalp too much to the point of drying or greasing. If changing your shampoo you see fast results is that you have targeted the problem. But if the phenomenon persists, we recommend you to see a dermatologist.
