7 steps to take care of shaved hair: All the information!

Contrary to popular belief, men and women who choose to sport a shaved head should also follow a routine of care to keep their scalp in top condition. We usually associate hair care with people who boast of hair, but nothing is further from the truth. Here we explain how to care for shaved hair.

How to care for shaved hair?

By wearing shaved hair, we expose the scalp more than if we had hair without shaving. It is mainly for this reason that caring for shaved hair is important, above all, to care for the scalp so exposed to external agents. In short, when we talk about caring for shaved hair, we are actually referring to keeping the skin on the head in the best possible condition.

The care routines of this type of hair do not take a lot of time from our day to day. Yes indeed, the important thing is to take care of shaved hair daily and always following the recommendations of expert professionals in the hair sector.

Do you know what you have to do to take care of it? Pay attention to these 7 steps of a shaved hair care routine!

Use a specific sunscreen

During the summer season, as well as in winter, it is truly important protect the scalp from UVA rays. For this, specific sunscreens that contain a high protection factor must be used.

Protect yourself from the cold

In the same way that we protect ourselves from the sun, in the colder months we must protect the skin in the area from low temperatures. We can use caps, hats or hats to keep the scalp warm and thus avoid dehydration.

Hydrates the scalp

Just as we apply creams and products to hydrate the skin of the face and body, when we have shaved hair it is also very important to hydrate the scalp. To do this, specific products for that area should be used in the form of creams or sprays.

In addition, if we tend to shave frequently, it is recommended that use moisturizing products when you finish shaving. This is due to the fact that after shaving, the scalp becomes excessively dry, so it is necessary to restore that hydration lost during the process.

Use specific products

As we have mentioned before, it is important that all the products that we incorporate into our shaved hair care routine are expressly indicated to treat the scalp. If, on the contrary, we use other products we can develop hair pathologies such as seborrheic dermatitis.

Ideally, add a shampoo and conditioner. In case of doubt, it is highly recommended to consult with a expert medical team that recommends what should be used in each particular case.

Better rinse with lukewarm water

Very hot water dries out the scalp. For this reason, it is advisable to rinse with warm water.

Exfoliate the scalp

To keep the scalp free of dead cells we can exfoliate it with non-aggressive products in the seasonal changes. Thus, the skin will be visibly healthier and smoother.

Eat a balanced diet

Finally, and in general terms, it is important to follow a balanced diet. A correct diet is beneficial to maintain a correct integral health, and this also includes the skin and hair. Therefore, we must not forget to incorporate the consumption of fruits and vegetables into our daily lives.
