Most Fave Scalp Scrub
This is a great cleansing and purifying scalp and hair scrub. I read other reviewers commenting about how this scrub is better than the more expensive alternatives, and I agree. I have used the dpHUE ACV, Christophe Robin and Briogeo scalp scrubs, and my favorite is this one by far. I have been usin...

Solid Product but Mechanism Needs a Revamp
Dry shampoo is one of those staples that I can't imagine living without. I grew up using baby powder on my oily roots in between shampoos, but if you've done that then you know that it can turn fine hair into a static nightmare. Even as a professional beauty writer, I rarely get to test a dry shampo...

My favorite clarifying shampoo
This product is a game changer if you deal with buildup. My scalp runs a little oily and I use a lot of product - hairspray, styling creams, and dry shampoo - and this scrub clears it all out in one wash without stripping my hair. The texture makes it extra effective (definitely more powerful than the Ouai Detox Shampoo), and the lather is surprisingly rich for a scrub. My hair feels fresh, light, and clean every time. Fair warning: it stings if it gets in your eyes (learned that the hard way!). Otherwise, it's perfect—I'll keep repurchasing.
Great lather

I have been using this scalp scrub for years now, and I love it!! I use it about twice a week, it leaves my hair clean and shiny, I definitely recommend it, especially if you have oily hair like I do
Foaming and cleansing scalp scrub
I use thia product about x1 a week and if I remeber to consitently use it helps keep my scalp clean and not flaky. Possible con is the strong smell, I personaly like the smell it is really calming (floral perfume). Make sure to go in with a thick conditioner afterwards ALL over otherwise your scalp will be dry. Overall I love this product and will be repurchasing!
