Stop guessing about your hair health. From the real effects of oiling to the science behind thinning, we help you separate viral trends from facts.

Many people believe hair oiling is the solution to all hair problems, but it might be doing more harm than good. We help you understand the science behind scalp health.

If you have an oily scalp, dandruff, or sensitive skin, applying oil can often worsen the problem. We diagnose your specific scalp type to recommend treatments that actually work.

This post explains how a combination of oil, warmth, and sweat can create an environment for fungal growth, leading to conditions like Malassezia, which causes dandruff and itchiness.

Contrary to popular belief, oiling can sometimes worsen dandruff. It can feed the yeast responsible for flakes, especially if left on the scalp for too long.

Using too much oil can clog your hair follicles. This blockage can lead to inflammation, scalp acne, and even accelerate hair fall if not washed out properly.

Instead of relying on oils, we recommend a science-backed approach. This includes using lightweight serums, exfoliating the scalp, managing stress, and focusing on internal nourishment for real results.

It's important to distinguish between dandruff and psoriasis, as they require different treatments. This graphic explains the key differences between the white, greasy flakes of dandruff and the thick, silvery scales of psoriasis.

Hormonal shifts, such as those during menopause, can significantly impact your hair's health, leading to thinning and dryness. We provide expert guidance and personalized treatments to help you manage these changes with confidence.

About Hair Science & Myth Busting

Hair loss often stems from deep-rooted issues like hormonal shifts or scalp inflammation, not just external factors. Instead of reaching for oils that can clog your follicles or worsen fungal conditions, we use a digital trichoscope to analyze your scalp health and identify the actual cause of thinning.
