“When it comes to scalp care—like skin care—it’s all about getting the body into homeostasis,” says hairstylist and trichologist Helen Reavey, founder of hair and scalp care brand Act+Acre. “It’s about less is more, laying solid foundations, and getting back to the roots—no pun intended.” In this episode of Clean Beauty School, mbg beauty director and host Alexandra Engler chats with Reavey about identifying your scalp type, how to bring your scalp to balance, and hair growth tips. Plus, she explains exactly how to shampoo your hair (because you might be doing it wrong).  Show notes: -Follow Helen & Act+Acre -Hair growth cycles -Research on red light therapy for hair -Research on microneedling for hair growth -Read more about topics mentioned in this episode: scalp care, skin types, flakes vs. dandruff, scalp inflammation, how often to shampoo, silicones in hair care, oily scalp, dry scalp, salicylic acid, scalp oils, hair slugging, clarifying shampoos, hair loss, hair growth, hair density, scalp itching, scalp buildup, dermarolling for the scalp, red light therapy for hair, scalp massage, nutrients for hair growth, vitamin C benefits, vitamin C skin benefits, skin cycling, how to layer your skin care, dry skin.  -Shop products mentioned this episode: Act+Acre Scalp Detox, Stem Cell Scalp Serum, Scalp Renew, Plant Based Hair Capsules, Leave-In Conditioner, Hair Oil, Dermaroller, Environ skin care, Circumference Vital-C Antioxidant Serum, Veracity, Marie Veronique C+E+Ferulic, Kora Organics Noni Bright Vitamin C, Symbiome The Cream Take 20% off glow from the inside out bundle+ with code BEAUTYPOD.
