I exfoliate my face bi-weekly—yet, save for the occasional clarifying shampoo, I rarely slough dead skin from my scalp. My lack of attention becomes particularly apparent in the soupy summer months, when sweat and product buildup (often from excess dry shampoo) mix and form a palpable film at my roots. Physical sensation aside, buildup hinders hair health and may even prevent strands from growing their strongest. As trichologist Gretchen Friese previously told InStyle, “Creating a healthy [scalp] environment for hair to grow is essential for thick, healthy hair.” The Aromatica Rosemary Scalp Scaling Shampoo is formulated to do exactly that—and, per shoppers, it creates thicker hair by proliferating strands.

When it comes to hair care, we often focus on the strands themselves, but there's a crucial element that is often overlooked—the scalp. Just like the soil in a garden, your scalp is the foundation from which healthy, vibrant hair grows. Neglecting scalp health can lead to a host of issues, from dandruff and itchiness to hair thinning and loss.

Whether your hair is starting to thin or has always been on the finer side, it’s not uncommon for us to want to find ways to boost the bulk in our hair for thicker-looking strands. Your options are somewhat limited in this area, and many dermatologists recommend a multi-layered approach that involves trying a few different methods to see what works best for you. If you have genetic hair loss, the best solution may be minoxidil (Rogaine) or a more potent supplement, but hair oils can act as a natural topical hair thickening assistant, if you’d rather go that route.

You know what’s interesting? I didn’t start getting my nails done until I was about 25. You see, I grew up playing the piano rigorously (my mother was a piano teacher), so my nails needed to be short and natural to maintain a sense of professionalism. I can’t fit a Yamaha Grand Piano into my little Brooklyn apartment, so I’ve been dipping my toes and fingers into gel manicure kits and enjoying the look of long, strong, and painted-on nails for the first time in my adult life. Throughout the summer, I’ve been donning brighter colors and soft pastels. And as much as I try to hold onto warmer days and sea-salt-scented weekends, there’s no denying that fall is creeping around the corner. Celebrity manicurist Michelle Saunders, who’s painted the hands of Gigi Hadid, Julia Roberts, and Pink, predicts that “classics like deep red, dark green, and other gemstone colors” will be in high demand.

So, I know little me is smiling, knowing that my dream came true and I’ve gotten to work in fashion in many different ways.

With that said, I’ve had the opportunity to test over 20 fashion items this month, but these six from Madewell, J.Crew, Everlane, and more stood out. The best part? Prices start at just $13.

They need hydration just like the rest of the skin. “Think about your scalp as an extension of your face,” says Gretchen Friese, MD, a trichologist at BosleyMD. “We need to keep the scalp moisturized to keep it healthy—and [keep] the follicles healthy for hair growth.”
