Grab a sulfate-free shampoo. Sulfates are the foaming agents that make your hair squeaky clean—too clean, actually. They strip moisture like a thief.
Look for ingredients like aloe vera, glycerin, or coconut oil. These are your scalp’s best friends. And avoid anything with “clarifying” on the label—that’s for grease monsters, not dry scalps.
If you’re feeling fancy, try a tea tree oil shampoo. It’s antimicrobial and soothing. Just don’t overdo it—tea tree can be drying if used daily.
