I Tried Derma-Rolling- And Here’s Everything You Need To Know About It

Iwas recently on the hunt for a new at-home scalp treatment when I heard my sister in law raving about the micro needling treatments she’d been getting at her Dermatologist’s office.
She went on to say that she noticed a real difference in the appearance and texture of her hair.
And since I am a sucker for luxury spa treatments…
I went ahead and did my research. It was all fun and games until I saw the price, costing up to $300 per session, depending on where you go.
Yeah as you can Imagine my jaw dropped to the FLOOR after I saw prices, especially since it requires consistent treatments to see results.
So naturally I did some digging on some cheaper alternatives (And hey, just because it’s cheaper doesn’t mean it’s not good! There's no shame in the game, ladies).
And that's when an angel bestowed upon me a website mentioning Derma-Rollers.
I felt like the hair Gods answered my prayers y’all, because this was exactly what the scalp needed: A little spa-level rejuvenation… But a budget-friendly one at that.
Luckily, after snooping around tryBELLO HQ… I found out we had some stock of our brand new derma-roller.
I wasted no time to volunteer as our guinea pig… Hey, somebody has to do it and honestly, who better than me?
Before I jump into the results…
Let's break down what derma-rolling really is.
Derma-rolling is a technique that involves gliding a small, handheld device covered in tiny needles across the scalp....
Woah, I know it sounds intimidating...
But I promise it's as safe as it comes (Sorry in advance to all the needle-phobes).
In fact, the microneedles are actually what makes this treatment so great. Why? Because they create micro-channels in the scalp, essentially tricking it into "injury mode."
All this does is trigger a surge in the creation of new hair cells, something you definitely want happening if you're dealing with hair loss.
Not only does it trigger growth, but it increases blood flow as well. This is the reason why my sister-in-law's hair looked fabulous...
Her hair follicles were receiving all the necessary nutrients to thrive because of the uptick of blood flow.
Also, these microchannels enhance product absorption because it is able to penetrate the scalp better.
If this isn't the best treatment, I don’t know what is.
My experience using this little god-sent device is nothing short of magical…
For a while, my hair had been feeling a little dried and abused because of my water filter.
So much so that I had to do a fairly big chop. Well, I’m happy to report that my hair not only looks shinier and softer…
It’s also thicker and about an inch longer than it was six months ago when I cut my hair.
My stylist was in so much awe, that she thought I was cheating on her! Which by the way, I would never… I love my Susan way too much!
Here’s the deal, you can use it up to twice a week. But you gotta let your scalp heal and rest up in between.
Make sure you do this treatment with a clean scalp and a good product like our Hair Helper Spray.
And, like always, consult your dermatologist if you have any existing scalp conditions.
