Choosing hair care: separate the hair from the scalp

Hair and scalp are two different problems and often need opposite products. Treating both with the same thing is why the result surprises people. Edwin is an AI advisor and asks about them separately.

  • Greasy scalp with dry lengths is the most common case — shampoo on the scalp, conditioner only through the lengths.
  • Fine hair loses volume to heavy oils and silicones; thick hair often needs them just to stay combable.
  • Curly hair responds more to how it is dried than to the product: rubbing with a towel breaks the curl pattern.
  • A product change needs a few weeks before it can be judged at all.

How often should hair be washed?

As often as the scalp asks for it. A greasy scalp copes better with frequent washing using a mild shampoo than with rare washing using a harsh one.

What does conditioner actually do?

It coats the hair surface and makes it combable, which prevents breakage while detangling. It does not belong on the scalp.
