Abstract

Modern cosmetology and dermatology give hair care a lot of attention since growing public interest in preserving hair health and aesthetic appeal. The constant exposure to environmental pollution, stress, chemical and thermal damage hair suffers from increases the demand for safe, scientifically verified hair care products. The real nature of this research is based on the pressing need for efficient, customized, evidence-based hair care techniques addressing various scalp types and external elements. By means of modern techniques, cosmetic formulations, and scientific guidelines, this study aims to identify the ideal hair care products and practices depending on scalp type and environmental exposure. This systematizes present hair care products, diagnostic tools, and clinical procedures to support individualized treatment plans. Emphasizing scalp classification, the function of active ingredients, the physiological needs of every scalp type (normal, oily, dry, sensitive, combination), and the effect of stress and environmental elements on hair condition. Additionally covered are recent developments including microbiome-centered treatments and deep learning-based scalp diagnostics. The results confirm the need of customized hair care plans, appropriate product selection, and the active participation of cosmetologists and trichologists in offering specific treatment. The study encourages a thorough, multidisciplinary approach combining dermatology, cosmetology, trichology, and psychophysiology to help create safe and efficient hair care solutions fit for contemporary lifestyle and environmental issues.
