At the heart of the formula is Hawaiian red salt, which gently removes dead skin cells and buildup from the scalp. The scalp scrub supports a thorough cleanse, while peppermint oil and menthol provide a pleasantly cooling sensation. The scrub can be a useful addition to your regular hair-washing routine, especially after frequent use of styling products or when roots get oily quickly.

Unlike a classic hair mask, the scrub is applied directly to the scalp and rinsed out before shampooing. This targets care where it is needed—for a refreshed scalp and clean roots.

Key ingredients

• Hawaiian red salt: This mineral salt forms the basis of the mechanical exfoliation. Its crystals help lift dead skin cells, excess sebum, and product residue from the scalp. The massage also provides a particularly thorough cleansing sensation.
• Peppermint oil and menthol: Peppermint oil gives the scrub its fresh, aromatic scent. Together with menthol and menthyl lactate, it creates a cooling effect that invigorates the scalp during use. This fresh sensation is especially pleasant when the scalp feels weighed down by sebum and styling residue.
• Apple extract: Apple extract contains natural plant compounds and adds nourishing properties to the scrub. It supports skin care during cleansing and helps keep the scalp feeling comfortable.
• Green tea, chamomile, and allantoin: Green tea provides antioxidant plant compounds, while chamomile extract and allantoin are valued for their skin-conditioning properties. They complement the salt scrub’s intensive cleansing action and support balanced scalp care.

How to use

• Before shampooing, wet your hair thoroughly and divide it into sections.
• Spread an approximately coin-sized amount of scrub between your palms.
• Apply directly to the wet scalp and massage gently in circular motions with your fingertips. Do not rub vigorously.
• Rinse thoroughly until no salt particles remain.
• Then wash and condition your hair as usual with shampoo and conditioner.
• Use as an occasional intensive cleanse as needed; do not use on irritated or broken skin.

FAQ

Who is True Enlightenment Scalp Scrub suitable for?
The scalp scrub is suitable for a range of hair types, especially when there is excess sebum, dead skin cells, or styling residue. It is not recommended for sensitive or irritated scalps because of the exfoliating particles and intensely cooling peppermint.

How often should I use the scalp scrub?
For many people, an occasional deep cleanse about once every two to four weeks is enough. The right frequency depends on sebum production, styling habits, and tolerance. Allow the scalp enough time to recover between uses.

Should I use the scrub before or after shampoo?
Always before washing your hair. Massage the scrub into the wet scalp and rinse thoroughly. Then follow with shampoo and conditioner.

Is the scalp scrub suitable for curly hair?
Yes, it can also be used on wavy and curly hair. Before applying, it’s best to divide the hair into sections and apply the scrub directly to the scalp. This minimizes mechanical stress on the lengths of the curls.

Is True Enlightenment Scalp Scrub vegan?
Yes. The current formula contains no apparent animal-derived ingredients and is vegan.
