What is scalp build up?

Scalp build up refers to the accumulation of excess oil, dead skin cells, styling products, and environmental pollutants on the scalp. This build up can lead to a variety of issues such as itching, flaking, clogged hair follicles, foul smell and even hair loss. It often occurs when the scalp's natural shedding process is disrupted or when there's an overproduction of oil (sebum) by the sebaceous glands.

  

Some common causes of scalp build up include infrequent washing or inadequate rinsing of hair products, using heavy styling products, not properly cleansing the scalp during washing, sweating excessively without cleansing the scalp afterward, and certain medical conditions like seborrheic dermatitis or psoriasis.

  

To address scalp build up or to understand how to remove scalp build up, regular cleansing with a gentle scalp build up shampoo designed to clarify the scalp can be helpful. Clarifying shampoos or a scalp build up shampoo is particularly effective in removing excess oil and product residue from the scalp. Additionally, incorporating scalp exfoliation serum into your hair care routine can help to remove dead skin cells and prevent scalp build up. However, it's important to avoid over-washing or using harsh products, as this can strip the scalp of its natural oils and potentially exacerbate the issue. If scalp build up persists despite home care efforts, it may be advisable to consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and treatment recommendations.

  

What does scalp build up feel like?

Scalp build up can feel like a heavy, greasy, or waxy layer on the scalp. It might also cause itching, flakiness, or discomfort. Some people describe scalp build up as feeling dirty or as if their scalp is not properly cleansed, even after washing their hair. Additionally, scalp build up can sometimes lead to an unpleasant odour or a feeling of tightness on the scalp.

What is the difference between dandruff vs build up?

Dandruff and scalp build up are related but are distinct scalp conditions that can cause discomfort and embarrassment. Understanding their differences is key to choosing the right treatment approach and understanding how to remove scalp build up.

  

Dandruff

  

Dandruff is characterised by the shedding of small flakes of dead skin from the scalp. It's a common condition, often associated with the fungus Malassezia, which lives on the scalp. Although this fungus is present on everyone's scalp, it can lead to dandruff when it grows out of control. This overgrowth can be triggered by factors such as excessive oil production, hormonal fluctuations, stress, and certain illnesses. Dandruff can cause an itchy scalp and is noticeable by white or yellowish flakes that may fall onto your shoulders. Special clarifying shampoos that contain antifungal agents can be effective in treating dandruff.

  

Scalp Build up

  

In the understanding of dandruff vs build up, scalp build up, on the other hand, results from the accumulation of styling products, sebum (natural oil produced by the sebaceous glands), sweat, and dead skin cells on the scalp. It can cause the scalp to feel greasy, itchy, and can lead to hair looking dull and lifeless. Unlike dandruff, which is primarily composed of shed skin flakes, scalp buildup includes a mix of external and internal factors like styling products, conditioner, environmental pollutants, and natural oils. Treatment for scalp build up generally involves regular washing with a clarifying shampoo or a scalp build up shampoo designed to remove excess buildup without stripping the scalp of its natural oils. In some cases, scalp serums and treatments may also be recommended to help physically remove the buildup.

  

Key Differences in Dandruff vs Build Up

  • Cause: Dandruff is primarily caused by a fungus and the body's response to it, whereas scalp build up is caused by the accumulation of various substances on the scalp.
  • Appearance: Dandruff appears as white or yellowish flakes of dead skin, while scalp build up can make the scalp feel greasy and hair look dull, but doesn’t necessarily flake off in the same way.
  • Treatment: Dandruff is treated with medicated shampoos containing antifungal or anti-inflammatory ingredients. Scalp build up is addressed by a clarifying shampoo, a scalp build up shampoo or a scalp exfoliating serum to remove excess oil and product residue.
  

Both conditions can be managed with proper scalp care, but if you're unsure which condition you have or if over-the-counter treatments aren't helping, it's a good idea to consult with a dermatologist for a tailored treatment plan.
