Glycolic Acid Exfoliating Scalp Scrub

Crusties at the end of the bottle??

I really liked this product for detoxifying my hair before showers — it made my scalp feel so clean and refreshed. But when I got to the end of the bottle and removed the tip, I was surprised (and honestly a bit grossed out) to find a bunch of buildup inside. It makes me wonder if that’s been sitting there the whole time!

better results with simpler products

the application nozzle is great because you can make contact with the scalp. but the consistency doesn't help. mine ran like water, so even when I would gently tip it, some much would come out to the point it was running down my back or face. it made my scalp drier. it didn't matter what I did to rehydrate. if they reformulated this but kept the packaging it could do well.

was okay

seemed to get stuck in the bottle also quite gritty and was harder to wash out of my hair compared to other scalp scrubs

Pink slime in bottle

Does not compare to the salicylic scalp treatment. This actually made my scalp itchy & my hair hurt, like running fingers along scalp hurt. Also I got halfway through the bottle, and nozzle was stuck, so I dumped it in a glass & there was pink slime in it!

Do Not Buy! Chunky!

The product clumps and clogs the nozzle. I should have returned. It was disgusting!

do not recommend

I bought this hoping it would help exfoliate my scalp since I had been noticing dryness and small flakes. At first when I used it I thought it was working well because I noticed a ton of granules coming off my scalp. I realized later that it was probably just the product which had become stuck together. It was clogging the nozzle like crazy and making it really hard to dispense. In the end I lost more than half the product just trying to get it out of the container. I had to fully remove the cap to access the product. I'm thinking of just getting the ordinary glycolic acid toner instead.

Train w/ a shake weight so you can mix properly

I bought this by accident. I have used the salicylic acid treatment in the past (which I loved). This one is just ok. The physical exfoliant in the bottle requires extremely vigorous shaking - like non-stop for 10-15 mins. Also you need to make sure the tip is clear of built up exfoliant or you’ll never get this stuff out of the bottle. It smells unpleasant but it did the job it was designed for and did not over dry my scalp.

It's Effective

I used this a few days before going to a salon to have my hair styled. Without revealing that I used this product, my stylist immediately told me that my scalp looked really clear and clean! I'm pleased about the effectiveness of this product.

I saw new baby hair from first week of use.

I was looking for those ingredients as the other brand equivalent is 4 times the price for half the product and it promises reduction of hair loss. I was not disappointed. My scalp feels clean and hydrated no built up and I saw new hair.

Love this stuff!

I tried this about 6 months ago when I had an unexpected breakout of psoriasis, due to menopause. I thought it would take a lot of the itch and build up of skin away and it certainly did that. I use it pre my usual shampoo and I can't be without it now.

Clogged applicator

Product works well but my issue is that the physical exfoliation beads clump up and clog the applicator. There are massive chunks and small ones. I’ve stopped trying to use the applicator and just pour straight from the bottle.

Saved my scalp

I normally don't write reviews but this product single-handedly saved my hair and scalp. I struggle with a lot of scalp itchiness and buildup from a combination of product buildup, oily skin, and extremely hard water where I live. After one use of this product my scalp buildup was gone and my hair feels so much lighter and cleaner. Will definitely be using regularly from now on.
