It took me entirely too long to realize that scalp is skin and needs more than just cleansing. Occasionally, it can benefit from exfoliation, just like facial skin. My current scalp product is Beyond Healing Force Scalp Clinic Exfoliator. It’s available on Jolse. Jolse also has an eBay storefront, but I couldn’t locate this specific item there.
I have straight, fine hair and an oily scalp. No particular sensitivities. The hair shafts are dry to normal, but the roots are on the oily side.
BEYOND Healing Force Scalp Clinic Exfoliator contains 8 plant extracts to soothe and moisturize the skin. A completely unfamiliar to me ingredient - haegeumsa - promises to remove dead skin cells and excess sebum.
How to use:
Apply to dry scalp working from the front of the head to the back
Massage gently
Rinse, then shampoo as usual
Use 1-2 times a week
The plastic bottle has a convenient narrow nozzle for dispensing the exfoliator straight to the scalp. For the purposes of the review, I squeezed some in my palms. The product is an opaque gel without any visible physical exfoliation particles. There’s a noticeable herbal scent that I really enjoy. Most other scalp products I’ve used were cooling and minty, but this one isn’t (and that’s not a bad thing).
My impressions
I’ve used physical (aka “grainy”) scalp scrubs and gel-ones like this one, and I prefer the latter. Beyond exfoliator is easy to spread and massage in, and rinses out completely. I feel like it makes my scalp cleaner than shampoo alone, and removes residue of styling products and occasional dry shampoo.
I usually wash my hair every other day, sometimes daily, and after using the exfoliator everything looks cleaner longer. I also like using this before coloring my hair. I use henna, which needs to be applied to clean hair, so the cleaner the better. This is worth looking into, especially if you have an oily scalp or hair.
