Tackle flaky, oily and itchy-feeling scalps head on with our Salicylic Acid Exfoliating Scalp Treatment. ​ ​

Formulated as a pre-wash treatment, it works to gently exfoliate and slough off dead skin cells on the scalp's surface to eliminate product buildup, reduce flakes, and minimize excess oil.

    small quantity, can't really tell if it's doing anything.

    So the texture of this is extremely watery, meaning you need quite a bit of it to coat your whole scalp. There's also nothing in it to make it adhere to the scalp. I genuinely have no idea if it does anything. It hasn't caused any problems though so it's not harming.

    One of the best hair products for me

    I have had flaky and itchy scalp for months (or years) It gets worse in Winter (I’m from warm place but now I live in the cold :( ) and I’ve tried many hair products but nothing really works long-term or worked once but I was not fully satisfied. I also have balayage so I can’t really use dandruff shampoo or those strong or medical ones as it could effect the color. But THIS!!! I stopped having flaky and itchy scalp since first use, its CRAYYYY. The fact that its pre-wash is also super convenient for me. Try it.

    this is the second salicylic acid scalp treatment that i try

    and i honestly liked the other brand better, i simply don't see much result with this one (not that the other one was a miracle, but i felt that it reduced the flakiness better)
