What is Scalp Psoriasis?

Psoriasis is skin condition which causes dry, scaly and itchy patches that can be found all over the body, including the scalp. Over 125 million people worldwide suffer with Psoriasis and the most frequently affected area of the body is, you guessed it - the scalp. 

Although it may sound like Scalp Psoriasis only affects the scalp, it can also be present on your hairline, around the ears and back of the neck. Symptoms of Scalp Psoriasis include:

- Inflamed skin often covered in flakes/scales

- Itchiness

- Redness

- Burning

- Hair loss (in severe cases)

There is a significant amount of misinformation about Scalp Psoriasis and the condition is often misunderstood. Many people assume that Scalp Psoriasis is contagious and the appearance of scales and redness often leads to feelings of self-consciousness in those suffering. In some cases Scalp Psoriasis can be mild and almost unnoticeable, but in others it can be severe with constant itching, burning and thick scales which affect your everyday life and longterm, can lead to hair loss.

Dermatologists believe that Scalp Psoriasis is an autoimmune and a chronic condition - meaning your body’s immune system is attacking itself and flare-ups can last days, weeks or even months. You may also be more prone to Scalp Psoriasis if it runs in your family. 

Mistakenly, it is often assumed that you cannot do anything about your Scalp Psoriasis.  However, people who follow a treatment plan rarely have to endure severe Scalp Psoriasis and can easily control their flare-ups and prevent it from coming back, just like Mabel did.

Mabels' Battle with Scalp Psoriasis

Mabel has been suffering from scalp irritation and psoriasis for the last 4 years. She has tried numerous products both off the shelf and prescribed by a dermatologist - but to no avail. Battling with this chronic skin condition has left Mabel self conscious, particularly when she experiences a flare-up around her hairline and the nape of her neck. Mabel's flare-ups are often itchy, red and cause scaly patches which can be difficult to deal with.

After battling to find the right solution for her, Mabel came across our Revive + Restore Scalp Scrub. She read all about or plant-based natural ingredients and was intrigued to try it after seeing over 5000+ others who have used it and were amazed by their results.

Mabel documented her before and after Scalp Psoriasis journey over a 6-week period using the Revive + Restore Scalp Scrub.

Week 1

"I was experiencing quite a bad flare up the week that I started using the scrub. After the first use my scalp immediately looked less-flaky and I felt more confident leaving the house."

Week 2

"After the first week of using the Scrub as advised 2 x a week, I felt that my scalp was less itchy. My scales started to disappear due to the gentle exfoliating effect of the scrub, the skin around my ears and back of the neck was looking way less red than usual. By the end of week 2, I was noticing a considerable difference in the appearance of my scalp and the severity of my Psoriasis."

Week 4

"In week 4 I saw the benefits of uninterrupted use of the Scalp Scrub. By now I had used the scrub 2 x a week for almost a month and I was feeling like a brand new person. My scalp was thriving! I had no more itchiness, redness or scaly patches. My scalp began to heal and I felt like I was finally coming out of the other side of years of suffering with Scalp Psoriasis."

Week 6

"At the beginning of week 5 I also introduced the Scalp Massaging Brush from BeKynd Beauty alongside the scrub. I feel like this took my new found scalp-care routine to another level. The Scalp Scrub has helped my scalp heal and revived my skin, whereas the brush has introduced me to the world of scalp massage. I apply the scrub just as before, but instead of using my fingers I gently massage the scrub in with the Scalp Brush. I can't believe the difference 6 weeks has made to my scalp but also to my confidence."

Final Thoughts

"Using the Revive + Restore Scalp Scrub has taught me that my Scalp Psoriasis can be managed through continuous preventative treatment. Now I use the Scrub 2 x a week and I hardly ever get severe flare-ups. I feel more confident, my neck which has always been my problem area is no longer inflamed and scaly and I can wear my hair up without feeling self conscious. BeKynd Beauty has gained a customer for life and if you are battling with Scalp Psoriasis, I would 100% recommend this Scrub and Brush combo to you!"
