Hair products and breakouts

If your breakouts sit along the hairline, forehead or upper back, your hair routine is worth a look.

Make this make sense for you

How it happens

Heavy oils and silicone-rich stylers transfer to the forehead and hairline, and conditioner runs down the back and chest in the shower.

Small adjustments

  • Rinse conditioner out before washing your body
  • Keep stylers away from the hairline
  • Wash the hairline after workouts

Key takeaways

  • Pattern location is the clue.
  • Small sequencing changes are often enough.

  • Your skin is significantly affecting how you feel day to day
