Dull, Lackluster Hair? You're Probably Skipping This Crucial Step
After dealing with bouts of shedding, thinning, and overall dullness, my hair reached a turning point last year (a glow up, if you will). And while I attribute a lot of that to my beloved shower filter, I saw a significant difference in my hair health when I finally stopped ignoring my scalp—and others have noticed too.
Turns out, scalp care and hair care are not mutually exclusive. If you're experiencing flakes, shedding, itchiness, excess oil, or buildup, your scalp likely needs some attention.
The good news? You don't need to overhaul your entire routine. Rene Furterer's Head Spa Purifying Scrub Detox takes just three minutes (pre-shampoo), and results are visible after just one use.
What's great about this scalp scrub
It's designed to promote scalp health and hair health
Remember: A healthy scalp leads to healthy hair. This gentle scrub rebalances the scalp to remove dead skin, oil, dirt, and product buildup. This creates a healthier environment for hair growth.
The ingredients
Like all Rene Furterer products, this natural formula doesn't contain parabens, silicones, or sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS). What it does contain is natural, plant-based ingredients to invigorate hair and rebalance the scalp.
- Tiny grains of sea salt gently cleanse and exfoliate the scalp to unclog pores and remove buildup.
- Activated plant-based charcoal penetrates pores and absorbs impurities.
- Orange essential oil promotes a healthy scalp by soothing and purifying.
- Aloe vera strengthens the skin barrier and adds moisture (without excess oil).
It leaves your hair feeling cleaner
I used to feel like my hair was never truly getting clean. Once I started using a scalp scrub, I realized the "not quite clean" feeling likely came from buildup. By removing excess product and dead skin, this scrub helps your hair actually absorb the other products that you're currently using.
If you're anything like me and reviewers, you'll notice your shampoo will lather up better and your hair will feel cleaner for longer.
It smells great
The formula has a natural citrus aroma that makes it feel like you're showering at a spa—leaving your strands smelling like you just had a luxury salon treatment.
Results are visible after just one use
The brand says this scalp scrub removes impurities from the very first use—and it performed a study to support these claims. After one use, 94% of people felt their hair stayed cleaner for longer; 91% of people felt that the scalp was instantly soothed; and 88% of people felt the scalp was more hydrated (an added bonus!).
Here's what a few testers say:
- "My scalp is no longer flaky and itchy after just one use. My hair is also shiny and healthy."
- "The texture is gritty and the scent is nice but not too overpowering. My scalp feels cleaner for longer after my hair washing days when using this scrub. Just make sure to rinse it out really well!"
It's easy to use
I have a very hard time adding new steps to my routine—but this scalp scrub fits right in. You simply apply it in the shower to a wet scalp, massage with your fingers for three minutes, and rinse before completing your regular hair care regimen.
Even better, you actually shouldn't use it every day. The brand suggests once per week, but most experts recommend exfoliating your scalp once every other week or so (the exact amount will depend on your unique scalp needs).
It lasts for a long time
A little bit of this scalp scrub goes a long way. And because this isn't an every-shower product, the $45 tube will last a while.
The takeaway
If you're frustrated by hair shedding, thinning, or dullness, all signs are pointing to this Rene Furterer Purifying Scrub Detox as your savior. After all, a clean, healthy scalp leads to fuller, healthier locks—and I have the thick, glossy mane to show for it.
