At STRAAND, we’re self-confessed scalp nerds. We’re passionate about the science behind the scalp and how it can be the difference between luscious and lacklustre hair.

We get it—"trichology" sounds fancy, but it's way more important than it sounds. If you’re serious about understanding your scalp and hair health, this is where the science hits hard.

Trichology is the medical specialty of dealing with problems of the hair and scalp; hair loss, scaling, itching, hair breakage, hair damage, and dryness or oiliness of the hair or scalp, baldness, alopecia, Trichology covers the medical and nutritional areas that relate to hair and scalp problems.

Essentially, a Trichologist is to hair and scalps like a Dermatologist is to skin – aka a scalp and hair doctor!

Whilst we’re light-hearted folks, when it comes to anything scalp-related, we get serious. When developing our products and helping our customers solve their scalp concerns, we partner with trichologists and
dermatolgists to ensure we are up with the latest insights on scalp health. There are constant developments and clinical studies on the effectiveness of scalp-healing ingredients and treatments, so ensuring
our formulations are backed by the latest science is critical.

Our obsession is helping people achieve their best hair and it is now well understood that tackling scalp health head-on is where we must start! A balanced scalp microbiome (free of excessive oiliness, dandruff, dryness
or irritation) ensures clear hair follicles, providing the greatest platform for healthy, strong hair growth. Scalp after all, is skin, and like the skin on our face and bodies, our scalps frequently require repair, hydration,
balancing and protection.
