The First Step in Your Scalp Care Routine: Shampoo
Shampoo is the foundation of any hair care routine. Thoroughly removing sebum and buildup from the scalp allows the nourishing ingredients in your conditioner or treatment to absorb properly. This is a scalp-focused deep cleansing shampoo that targets excess sebum and impurities deep within the pores. If limp, lifeless hair is your concern, start with a thorough cleanse from step one.
Evening Shampoo to Remove Daily Buildup
An evening shampoo is most effective for removing the fine dust, sebum, and styling residue that accumulate on your scalp throughout the day. While morning use is fine, cleansing your scalp at night after environmental exposure gives it time to breathe and reset.
Cleanse with a Gentle Scalp Massage Using Fine Lather
Before shampooing, brush through any tangles, then thoroughly wet your scalp and hair with lukewarm water. Dispense an appropriate amount into your palm, work into a lather, and apply evenly across the scalp. Using your fingertips with gentle pressure, massage the scalp in circular motions to work the product through. Add a bit more water to build a rich lather, cleanse down to the ends, then rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water.
Recommended Routines by Hair Concern
- Limp, lifeless hair: After shampooing, apply conditioner only from mid-lengths to ends, avoiding the scalp, for a lightweight finish
- Dry, dull hair: Use a hair mask or treatment 1–2 times per week to maintain shine and softness
- Oily scalp: Take extra time to massage the scalp during shampooing, and rinse thoroughly
Precautions for Use
This is a silicone-free formula, so it's gentle on the scalp. However, if not rinsed thoroughly after shampooing, residue may remain and lead to scalp concerns, so be sure to rinse carefully with lukewarm water. If you experience redness, itching, or other unusual symptoms during use, discontinue immediately and consult a dermatologist. Store in a cool place away from direct sunlight.
