Understanding Scalp Sensitivity & How to Soothe It

If your scalp feels tight, itchy, red, or easily irritated, you’re not alone. A sensitive scalp can be triggered by harsh hair products, environmental pollutants, and even daily stress. When the scalp’s natural barrier is weakened, it becomes more reactive, inflamed, and prone to discomfort. Beyond irritation, a compromised scalp can impact hair health, leading to weaker follicles, increased shedding, and slower growth. Additionally, FGF5, a protein that signals hair to shed too soon, can accelerate thinning and prevent hair from reaching its full potential. But there’s a solution—by calming the scalp, reducing inflammation, and blocking FGF5, you can restore balance and create the ideal environment for stronger, healthier hair growth.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is FGF5?

FGF5 is a natural protein produced in the scalp that stops hair growth and initiates hair fall. In a normal, healthy hair cycle, the hair fall is followed by the emergence of a new hair from stem cells in the scalp. However, if you are stressed, have hormonal changes, inadequate nutrients, are responsive to DHT or have a genetic predisposition, too much FGF5 can build up in the scalp resulting in excess hair fall, slow growth, poor quality hair and hair loss. This process can also happen as we age. By blocking the action of FGF5, the negative impact of this protein can be halted or reversed, resulting in increased growth, reduced hair fall and better quality, youthful hair.

How long do I need to use the products before I notice results?

You will need to use évolis® for a minimum of 16 weeks or 120 days to see significant results, but you will be able to notice a number of changes much sooner. Results you can expect include:

• Less hair fall in the first 30 days of use. This means less hair in the sink, on the brush or on your pillow.

• Change in hair texture to smoother and more manageable in 30-60 days of use

• Improvement in thinning areas in 60-90 days of use

• Increased density and appearance in 90-120 days of use

• Fine, downy hair texture change to appear stronger and thicker in 120+ days of use

We recommend continued use to maintain your amazing results.

What types of hair loss with évolis® help?

Most types of hair loss are due to a disturbance in the normal hair growth cycle... évolis® may help those with hair loss where the hair growth cycle has been disrupted.

This will include:

  • hormonal activity, menopause, post-partum hair loss
  • illness, fever
  • stress and lifestyle
  • Androgenic Alopecia or Male Pattern Baldness
  • Telogen Effluvium

évolis® should not be used in those with autoimmune hair loss (e.g. alopecia areata) or to prevent hair loss due to chemotherapy.

Can I use minoxidil and évolis® together?

Yes, you can certainly use evolis® with minoxidil, you may find they help each other. Just be mindful that stopping minoxidil suddenly can result in more shedding.
