1. Ouai Scalp Serum
A skincare-inspired scalp serum designed to balance and hydrate, creating the optimal environment for hair to flourish. This serum reduces flake formation & thinning, and promotes thicker fuller-looking locks within 90 days of use.
Formulated with hyaluronic acid for intensive hydration and barrier-boosting ingredients such as arctic root, siberian ginseng and chaga mushroom to strengthen hair barriers; red clover extract helps ease any discomfort from styling.
One full pipette of this serum can be applied to wet or dry hair and quickly rubbed in using short presses for maximum absorption. Atkin noted that Cape Town, an exclusive to Ouai collection, “combines notes of ginger & spearmint with green fig & wet grass.” Additionally, this formula does not contain parabens, phthalates, mineral oil, coal tar hydroquinone SLS/SLES triclosan/oxybenzone as ingredients or preservatives/preserveants/antipersistents/oxybenzone etc.
2. Briogeo Scalp Revival Exfoliating Shampoo
Detoxifying and clearing product buildup, oil, and impurities while simultaneously hydrating and soothing an itchy scalp are hallmarks of health. This minty mousse-like shampoo uses ultra-fine grit and plant-based exfoliators to loosen buildup while simultaneously absorbing excess oil to extend time between washes. Packed with super natural oils formulated for long term effectiveness it can help relieve those suffering from itchy, flaky or dry scalp due to dandruff or seborrheic dermatitis.
Binchotan charcoal and plant-based exfoliators gently lift away impurities, flakes, and excess oils to detoxify hair and scalp while peppermint, spearmint, and tea tree oil soothe and comfort the area. This vegan and cruelty-free formula is free from sulfates, silicones, parabens, phthalates and DEA. Always apply Scalp Revival Charcoal + Tea Tree Cooling Hydration Scalp Mask or your preferred Briogeo conditioner post-exfoliating or after exfoliating to maintain health of mid-lengths to ends for best results.
3. Salicylic Acid Scalp Cleanser
Salicylic acid is an ideal ingredient for haircare as it penetrates pores on both your scalp and skin to break down sebum, remove dead skin cells, reduce dandruff, seborrheic dermatitis symptoms, and help topical psoriasis treatments work more efficiently.
This clarifying shampoo features 2% salicylic acid with detoxifying clays to cleanse oily roots and dry ends for a refreshed and rebalanced scalp. Additionally, it targets dandruff by targeting its source such as product buildup rather than simply eliminating visible flakes – making this skincare hero ideal as part of an overall scalp care regime. Just take caution not to overuse as its drying effects could potentially cause overexposure.

5. Bumble & Bumble Scalp Treatment
An intense scalp treatment that nourishes hair while eliminating frizz and flyaways, featuring Dead Sea Salt and three nutrient-rich seaweeds to gently exfoliate while creating an ideal scalp environment.
Pre-shampooing with Micellar Water helps remove product build-up, oil and impurities to leave hair feeling refreshed and rejuvenated. Panthenol protects from over-drying while salicylic acid clears away pore-clogging build-up for maximum effectiveness.
An excellent pre-shampoo treatment designed to give your hair a hard reset from all that product use and styling, simply divide your hair into sections along the partings before massaging it into your scalp and leaving it for three minutes before rinsing and conditioning as usual. An absolute must for those who use tons of product and need an intensive reset at least once every seven days!
