With the Australian climate comes with a whole host of pros – sun, surf, sand and balmy nights – but unfortunately, it can wreak havoc on our hair.
If your scalp is oily at the best of times, warmer conditions can exacerbate the problem. More heat equals more sweat which, in turn, causes our scalp to produce more sebum, weighing down our roots.
Those of us who go heavy on the hair styling products (that includes dry shampoo, hairspray and leave in conditioner and yes, we’re guilty too) are also prone to lank, lifeless hair as this can build up between washes, weighing hair down.
You could slick your hair back and ignore the problem, but we have a better solution. Sukin’s new gentle-yet-effective Deep Cleanse Hair Care range gets to the root of the issue by giving hair a deep, nourishing and satisfying clean with an energising a blend of Australian river mint, apple cider vinegar and sustainably-sourced algae. And did we mention that all Sukin products are natural and synthetic-free?
Does Your Hair Need A Deep Clean?
We often overlook our scalp; however, if your scalp is out of whack, your hair will follow.
A deep clean will treat and balance your scalp – meaning, no product and oil build-up – and allow your hair to breathe. How is that different to your standard wash? Specialised products, such as the Sukin Deep Cleanse Hair Care range, have been specifically formulated to detoxify your scalp, remove synthetic build-up and wash away pollutants, without drying your hair out. Genius!
How To Get Back To Baseline
Let’s break it down, step-by-step.
Step 1: Treat
First things first: Take a bottle of Sukin Deep Cleanse Purifying Tonic and spray it directly onto the scalp, section by section until the whole scalp is covered. Leave on for one minute before shampooing as normal.
Sure, it’s an extra step in your routine but the results are worth the time investment. Containing a blend of natural Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHAs) derived from apple cider vinegar, Deep Cleanse Purifying Tonic is a fast-acting treatment to quickly and effectively exfoliate your scalp to remove any product build-up. Use once or twice a week, depending on your scalp’s needs.

Step 2: Cleanse
Now, it’s time for the main event: the cleanse. Fortunately, a clarifying shampoo doesn’t require any more effort than a normal one.
Wet hair and massage Sukin Deep Cleanse Shampoo into the scalp to form a gentle lather. Despite being a sulphate-free formula, this shampoo is quick to foam. After massaging through hair, rinse thoroughly and follow with your conditioner as per usual.

Step 3: Condition
Don’t get it twisted – a deep cleanse isn’t complete until you’ve restored moisture levels with conditioner.
To finish your three-step routine, take a generous dollop of Sukin Deep Cleanse Conditioner and massage into the hair, starting at the mid-lengths and focusing at the ends. Wait a few moments (this is your opportunity to multi-task and shave your legs) before rinsing thoroughly. Voila! That’s it!
