Scalp Science
The scalp plays a crucial role in regulating sebum production and maintaining overall hair follicle health. When it's improperly balanced, it can lead to issues such as itchiness, dandruff, inflammation, and stunted hair growth. Our oil-based treatment is specifically formulated to support the scalp's microbiome, providing hydration to relieve dryness and soothe sensitivities. It also helps to loosen build-up, allowing the scalp to breathe, which, in turn, encourages healthy hair growth throughout its cycle—free from unwelcome visitors like dirt, excess oil, or product residue.

FAQ
What is the difference between Scalp Detox and the Salicylic Acid Scalp Exfoliator?
The Scalp Detox gently removes build-up, balances the scalp, and provides deep hydration and nutrients to the scalp. The Salicylic Acid Scalp Exfoliator provides deeper exfoliation with salicylic acid, balancing oil for those who have oily and dry scalp. The Renew comes with soothing peppermint oil that works to calm down inflammation.
How much product should be applied to the scalp?
Each section of the scalp only needs a few drops. The bottle is designed to slowly release a few drops of oil at a time, without squeezing the sides. The oil will spread easily across the entire scalp once massaged.
How often should Scalp Detox be used, and for how long?
Scalp Detox is a weekly pre-cleanse treatment. Leave it in for 20 minutes and follow with a thorough cleanse. Our favorite way to apply Scalp Detox is with the Scalp Gua Sha, which increases product absorption and shortens the treatment time to 10 minutes. Alternatively, many of our customers love to leave it in for longer or even overnight—it is completely safe to do so!
