Two reasons. One, we formulated this product with thicker oils to give nourishment to your scalp. We don’t recommend applying this or any other thicker/heavier oils onto your full head of hair as it can be difficult to wash off. Second reason is that we have added oils that specifically target scalp health, they don’t take the same role on your hair shaft. It’s better to find a light oil formula for the rest of your hair.

We recommend that you use it as a pre-shampoo treatment (a pre-poo).

If you are dealing with a scalp issue, then we recommend with starting use at 2-3 times a week.

If you are generally looking to maintain the health of your scalp then once a week.

We don’t recommend this, overnight really should be the limit. Oil attracts dust so if you are walking around a full day or so with oil on your scalp you might be doing more damage to your scalp. Longer is not better.

We’ve been here. When you’re struggling with a scalp condition be it build up, hair loss etc. You find a product and you just want to drown your scalp in it. While that would be great for our sales, we do not recommend this at all. This formula was developed with the premise of; a little goes a long way. The oil should not be dripping off your scalp, apply the oil, massage in and your scalp should look moisturized. 

If your goal is hair re-growth, you should start noticing fuller hair anywhere between 3-4 months. The key here is consistency. If your concern is scalp health (itchiness, build up) you should notice results after your first wash, especially if you use our Shampoo Brush.

As with all your beauty products in general, keep out of direct sunlight to preserve the ingredients. There’s a reason our formula is packaged in a coloured bottle as direct sunlight does affect beauty formulations.
