Do you have products for sensitive scalps?Updated 10 months ago

Some Dense topical treatment contains propylene glycol and ethanol, which are common ingredients in many products. Here is how these ingredients may affect the scalp. 

1. Propylene Glycol:
   • Moisture Retention: Propylene glycol is often used to help retain moisture in the product and on the skin. However, in some individuals, it can cause irritation, especially if you have sensitive skin.
   • Allergic Reactions: Some people might experience an allergic reaction to propylene glycol, leading to redness, itching, or dryness.
2. Ethanol:
   • Drying Effect: Ethanol is an alcohol that helps dissolve other ingredients and enhances the penetration of the active compounds into the scalp. However, it is known to have a drying effect on the skin.
   • Irritation: Ethanol can strip the natural oils from your scalp, leading to dryness and potential irritation, particularly with prolonged use.
