A Clean and Healthy Scalp Forever!
When you think of acne, you probably think of blemishes on your face, or full-fledged breakouts that may have you hiding more than showing. But there is one place that acne appears that often goes under the radar. And that's on your scalp.
Scalp acne is a common problem for many people due to the many hair follicles and buildups of oil on the top of your head, regardless of your personal hygiene or washing practices. (1)
But here's the good news - new research is showing how you can not only GET RID OF SCALP ACNE FOREVER, but how you can also enjoy a cleaner, healthier scalp with stronger hair follicles than you've ever had before.
In this blog we talk about what scalp acne is, why you get it, and how to PREVENT IT FOREVER!

Though it may be surprising, scalp acne is not just one thing. In fact, scalp acne can be a variety of things, from pimples scattered all around your head to traditional acne surrounding your hairline, especially if you suffer from facial acne.
Furthermore, scalp acne is actually a type of inflammation of your individual hair follicles, or folliculitis. It can be caused by fungal or bacterial infections, irritation, and many of the same causes of dandruff. (2)
Scalp acne can also be caused by excess sebum or when there is a buildup of dead skin cells affecting your hair follicles. Any excess sebum - or your natural oil - can also lead to the inflammation of your hair follicles. (3)
QUICK TIP: Hair products with sulfates or alcohol can lead to increased oil production or irritation. Remove excess oil and dirt naturally today with GARNER'S GARDEN 100% ALL-NATURAL TONER! (4)
Though scalp acne in its folliculitis form is the most common and mild form of the condition, there are a few instances where it may be worth inspecting your scalp acne further.
Witch hazel has the ability to remedy acne and scalp sensitivity. Find witch hazel in GARNER'S GARDEN 100% ALL-NATURAL PURE FACIAL TONER.
Though scalp acne is most typical around the side and back of your head, you need to be mindful of kerion - a large mark that looks like acne caused by untreated fungal infections on the scalp, which can lead to crustiness and painful outbreaks. (5)
Scalp acne is also often misidentified, and can be confused with other scalp conditions such as atopic dermatitis, scalp psoriasis, and seborrheic dermatitis, so knowing if what you have is scalp acne is the first step to remedying it and preventing it. (6)

HOW TO PREVENT IT
Even if it seems like getting rid of acne is an impossible task, there are STEPS you can take to reduce your chances of developing scalp acne right now. And one of the best ways to do this is by using ACTIVATED CHARCOAL.
ACTIVATED CHARCOAL works to detox your scalp, and can remove excess sebum and oil from your skin. APPLE CIDER VINEGAR is also an effective ingredient in preventing scalp acne, as it can remove debris from your scalp that can clog pores, as well as clarify your scalp. (7)
Dandruff can oftentimes be confused with scalp acne. Be sure you know what you have before thinking about the best way to remedy it.
Another great trick to preventing scalp acne is by analyzing the way you're using your hair styling products. Apply your styling products at least one inch away from your scalp to decrease the likelihood of developing scalp acne. (8)
QUICK TIP: Dandruff can appear as a rash that can resemble pimples. Maintain a healthy scalp and boost your hair growth today with GARNER'S GARDEN 100% ALL-NATURAL TEA TREE SHAMPOO BAR! (9)
One of the best ways to prevent scalp acne is by not letting your pimples turn into a full-fledged outbreak in the first place. To do this, avoid picking or squeezing bumps on your head, as unremedied acne can at times turn into cysts.
Another reason to avoid popping the pimples on your scalp is because popping pimples spreads bacteria to follicles and pores on the rest of your head, leading to even more acne and the potential for scarring. (10)
It's also important to manage stress, as stress can lead to higher cortisol levels and more sebum on your scalp. And as always, to prevent an infection or the worsening of your skin, see a dermatologist or health care professional if your acne persists or for any health questions or concerns. (11)
To eliminate acne, while also balancing the pH of your skin, check out Garner's Garden 100% All-Natural Apple Cider Vinegar Toner, which also shrinks pores and deeply cleans your skin!
