Protect Your Scalp from Late Summer Shedding
Remember that feeling late last summer? The one where you noticed a little more hair in your brush or in the shower? That small moment of worry? We hear you. This is a very real experience that many of us face as the seasons change.
But here’s the secret: you don’t have to just accept it. We believe the key is to be proactive and to turn a potential problem into a peaceful, strengthening ritual. Now is the perfect time to begin nurturing your hair and scalp to ensure you enter autumn with confidence and a feeling of balance.
What's Happening with Your Hair? The Saabuni Take
Hair shedding is a natural part of life. But when it feels excessive in late summer, it’s a beautiful example of your body adapting to nature. We see it as a gentle call to action.
- Sun Protection: Your hair is smart! It holds onto extra strands in spring and summer to naturally protect your scalp from the sun's strong UV rays. As the sun’s power fades, it’s time for those extra hairs to be released.
- Seasonal Scalp Stress: Summer can be tough on your scalp. The combination of heat, sun, and moisture from sweat or swimming can cause inflammation and stress at the root, making follicles weak and brittle.
- A Shift in Rhythms: As the days get shorter, your body's hormonal cycles shift. This affects the hair growth cycle, prompting more follicles to enter a resting phase—a natural signal that it's time for a change.
The Saabuni Solution: A 3-Step Holistic Ritual
Instead of a single product, we believe in a holistic, handcrafted ritual that nurtures your scalp back to its happy, balanced state. Think of it as a beautiful conversation between you and your hair.
Here’s your simple routine to strengthen your roots and protect from summer shedding:
Step 1: Nourish & Soothe with Our Jasmine Hair Oil
This is where the ritual begins. Our Jasmine Hair Oil is more than just a pre-wash treatment; it's an act of self-care. The calming, naturally fortifying blend of botanicals is designed to soothe a stressed scalp, hydrate, and strengthen your roots from within.
- Soothing Inflammation: Gentle massage with this oil helps to calm irritation and inflammation, creating a peaceful environment for hair to grow.
- Root Fortification: By nourishing the follicles with rich botanicals, we help to "fortify" your hair, making strands stronger and less prone to breakage and shedding

Step 2: Stimulate & Rejuvenate with the Kansa Stimulator
After applying the oil, take a moment to use our handcrafted Kansa Stimulator. Kansa is a beautiful, naturally cooling blend of copper and tin that has been used in Ayurveda for centuries. This step is about awakening your scalp and bringing fresh energy to your roots.
- Boosts Circulation: The gentle massage of the Kansa tool increases blood flow to the scalp, delivering vital oxygen and nutrients to each hair follicle. This is key for encouraging strong, new hair growth.
- Releases Tension: The soothing sensation helps to relieve scalp stress, which is one of the main culprits of shedding.
Step 3: Care with our Naturally Antibacterial Neem Comb
Finish your ritual by gently combing through your hair. Our Neem Comb is a beautiful, eco-friendly alternative to plastic. It's gentle, it's effective, and it’s a wonderful final touch to your mindful routine.
- Minimises Breakage: Unlike harsh plastic, the rounded wooden teeth gently detangle your hair, preventing the pulling and snapping that leads to unnecessary shedding.
- Keeps Scalp Clean: The natural antibacterial properties of neem wood help to keep your scalp clean, ensuring follicles remain clear and healthy.
Safeguard your scalp, strengthen your roots, and protect yourself from summer shedding by embracing this simple, intentional routine. Your hair (and your mind) will thank you.

We recommend performing this ritual 1-2 times per week. Consistency is key. Making it a regular part of your self-care routine will deliver the best results.
Can I use the Jasmine Hair Oil on its own?

We recommend performing the ritual on days when you are washing your hair to ensure a clean, refreshed feeling.
