Have you heard about Straand, the pioneering scalp care brand from Australia? Here’s everything you need to know about the brand, where to find their best-sellers in the UK and what to try if your scalp needs a little TLC.

About Straand, “skincare for your scalp”

Straand is a pioneering Aussie brand dedicated to revolutionising scalp care by treating it with the same attention as skincare.

Recognizing that the scalp is an extension of the skin on our face and body, Straand aims to bridge the gap between traditional haircare and advanced skincare.

Why does it matter? Because a healthy scalp is the foundation of healthy hair. The brand focuses on creating innovative, high-quality products that address common scalp issues such as dandruff, itching, irritation and dryness.

With a range that benefits all hair and scalp types, Straand is transforming the way we approach scalp care, making it as routine and essential as our skincare regimen.

What is Straand’s signature scalp care ingredient?

Defenscalp™ is the brand’s star ingredient, a prebiotic compound that helps rebalance the scalp microbiome.

Powered by rosebay extract, it is formulate to regulate the proliferation of the fungus species responsible for dandruff.

Gentle yet effective, Defenscalp™ keeps itchiness and flakiness at bay whilst nurturing a healthy hair-growing environment.

Is Straand vegan-friendly?
