The Scalp Is Skin: Why Your Head Deserves the Same Care as Your Face
When we talk skincare, we talk cleansers, toners, moisturizers—but the scalp is often left out of the conversation. At Comme DeLaVie, we believe that grooming starts at the crown. If the scalp is your skin’s foundation, why treat it like an afterthought?
Neglect Starts at the Top
Your scalp is exposed to the same conditions as your face—UV rays, sweat, dirt, and dryness. But most men don’t think twice about moisturizing their scalp, exfoliating dead skin cells, or protecting it post-shave. This neglect leads to:
- Dryness and flaking
- Itchiness and irritation
- Uneven tone and buildup
- Premature aging of the skin
Think of it this way: if your face needed care before a job interview, a date, or a speaking engagement—why wouldn’t your scalp?
Why Scalp Health Is Essential for Men of Color
Melanin-rich skin tends to be drier and more prone to hyperpigmentation when irritated. The scalp, like the face, needs to be nourished with ingredients that respect your tone and texture. That’s why Crème de la Crown™ was formulated with intentionality:
- Shea Butter for deep moisture and barrier support
- Mango & Kokum Butter to soften and heal
- Jojoba, Castor, and Argan Oil to nourish without clogging pores
- Essential oils for a subtle, refined finish
CDLV’s Scalp Ritual
Cleanse, treat, moisturize. That’s the baseline. After a shower, while your scalp is still slightly damp, apply Crème de la Crown™ in a circular motion. This locks in hydration, softens texture, and calms irritation. Whether you’re waving, bald, or buzzed—your crown deserves a ritual, not a routine.
The Crown Is Skin—Care for It Accordingly
Don’t wait for dryness or flakes to appear. Start treating your scalp like your face. Nourish it. Protect it. Make it part of your grooming identity. Because presence begins at the top.
