The hairstyle can cause scalp allergies and should be used with caution, says the dermatologist
Summary
The “wet hair” effect is one of the hairstyles of the moment, but excessive use of hair gel can cause damage and irritation to the scalp. To avoid this, it is important to choose to use this look only in specific situations and wash your hair well with anti-residue shampoo once a week.
The “wet hair” effect has conquered Brazilian women and has become one of the most chosen hairstyles for those looking for a casual and bold look. However, to achieve the result, the use of products such as hair gels and jellies is abundant, which can cause damage to the scalp and hair fiber.
In an interview with Earthdermatologist Andrea Sampaio explains that excessive use of hair gel can irritate the scalp, causing flaking, irritation and even dermatitis. The buildup of these products in your hair can also worsen the oiliness of your scalp and leave your hair dull and brittle.
How to avoid?
The expert points out that the daily use of these products or hairstyles that require them is extremely harmful to hair health. Choosing to adopt the “wet hair” look only in specific situations and washing your hair well is a safer option.
“Using an anti-residue shampoo once a week can help with cleansing,” the dermatologist advises.
According to the professional, opting for transparent gels, with little or no perfume and water-based is ideal to avoid scalp allergies.
For those who love the look or need to use the effect on their hair frequently, the doctor recommends less harmful alternatives that provide a similar result.
“Some hair treatments give this wet look and are made to treat the hair and not for styling, such as serums or Leave-ins for heat protection. They will never have the same effect and the same duration, but it is a solution for those who need to use them more often,” she says.
