My haircare routine

If you’re a regular around here you will have seen my journey back to my beloved blonde with Saks salon in Newark and I mentioned some of the products I’m using to keep my hair damage-free and the lengths stronger. I’m loving the products mentioned in that post for my breakage issues but I’ve got a few other products to chat to you about from a brand I’ve only used skincare from before, Gallinée. Gallinée is the world’s first skin and haircare line dedicated to the health and wellbeing of Planet You. Let’s talk about skincare for your scalp.

Your skin is made up of 1000s of good bacteria which form the protective layer called the microbiome. If the microbiome becomes unbalanced or stripped away, then your skin becomes inflamed and sensitive. At Gallinée we believe in working with your microbiome to help it to look after you. Our products contain a patented complex of prebiotics, probiotics and postbiotics to nourish and support the good bacteria that make your own personal ecosystem. Helping them to look after even the most sensitive skin.

You are 50% bacteria – scary, right? 50% of cells in your body are bacterial cells. Good bacteria protect your skin, fight for its balance and well-being. That’s why it’s important to care for them with the right bacterial mix of pre, pro and postbiotics.
Put good bacteria on your skin! I’ve been trialling the Gallinée Prebiotic Scalp and Hair Serum 100ml which is in a handy spray formula and is great to whack on overnight as a mask if you’re planning on washing your hair the next morning.

Or, you can use it in the shower alongside your conditioning products. It’s lightweight and oil free and balances the scalp’s microbiome which therefore reduces flakiness. When bleaching your scalp can get sensitive so this is perfect to counteract the slight harm going blonde can sometimes do. These products are dermatologically tested and free from sulphates (which can damage your colour!), parabens, silicones, mineral oils and colourants.

I’ve also been trying the Gallinée Prebiotic Soothing Cleansing Cream 200ml as my first shampoo when I wash my hair. This doesn’t foam up so I just cleanse my hair with this cream to get rid of any impurities before I go in with a satisfying foamy shampoo. Catering for all scalp and hair types, the Gallinée Prebiotic Soothing Cleansing Cream boasts a natural, non-foaming base derived from Coconut and fruit sugars for high performance results.

I can now go around 3 days without washing my hair so I’m on about a twice a week wash which is saving me so much time. When my hair is dark I have to wash it every other day but when I have some blonde it can last me a lot longer as the bleach is more drying on the hair and it doesn’t get as oily. I’m loving these products as little extras in my routine as I like to spend a little more time when I do wash my hair on really nourishing it now I’m not doing it so regularly.
