The Most Overlooked Step in Hair Care

You’ve been skipping this for too long. Let’s change that.

When it comes to haircare, most routines stop at shampoo, conditioner, and perhaps a weekly mask. But dermatologists and trichologists agree that the most important step for long-term hair health often goes overlooked: scalp care.

Just like healthy skin is the foundation for radiant makeup, a healthy scalp is the foundation for beautiful hair. Without it, even the best treatments, serums, or color services cannot perform at their full potential.

Why Scalp Care Is the Missing Step

The Scalp-Hair Connection

• The scalp contains over 100,000 follicles, each producing a strand of hair.

• Follicles depend on a clean, balanced environment to grow healthy, resilient hair.

• When the scalp is congested, oily, or irritated, hair becomes weaker, thinner, and more prone to shedding.

Expert POV: “Every good hair day begins at the root. If the scalp isn’t balanced, hair cannot thrive — no matter how expensive your shampoo or mask is.”

What Happens When You Skip Scalp Care

• Buildup: Sweat, oils, and styling residues accumulate, clogging follicles.

• Itchiness and flaking: Signs of imbalance that disrupt growth cycles.

• Flat, lifeless hair: Roots weighed down by excess sebum or residue.

• Compromised treatments: Masks and conditioners cannot penetrate effectively if buildup is blocking absorption.

Over time, ignoring the scalp leads to weaker strands, breakage, and even accelerated thinning.

The Phyto Scalp Ritual: Cleanse, Detox, Balance

Step 1: Detox with Polliéne Pre-Shampoo Concentrate

A blend of botanical essential oils that resets the scalp environment.

• Removes buildup and impurities

• Boosts circulation for stronger roots

• Prepares scalp to absorb treatments

Step 2: Balance with Scalp Solutions Shampoos

Tailored care that respects the scalp’s natural ecosystem.

• Anti-Itch Shampoo: Soothes irritation and restores comfort

• Dandruff Shampoo: Gently regulates flakes without stripping

• Oil Control Shampoo: Rebalances sebum for fresher, lighter roots

Together, these two steps form the overlooked foundation of a true luxury haircare routine.

FAQ: Scalp Care Questions

Q: Isn’t shampoo enough for my scalp?
Not always. Shampoos cleanse the surface, but they don’t detoxify buildup or rebalance scalp health long-term. That’s where targeted treatments like Polliéne come in.

Q: How often should I treat my scalp?
Detox with Polliéne weekly, and choose a Scalp Solutions shampoo as your regular cleanser based on your needs.

Q: Does scalp care help with hair growth?
Yes. A clean, balanced scalp optimizes follicle function, supporting stronger, healthier growth and reducing excess shedding.

Q: Is scalp care only for people with scalp issues?
No. Even if you don’t notice itching or flakes, pollution, sweat, and product buildup accumulate invisibly. Preventive scalp care keeps your hair at its healthiest.
