Scalp care applies skincare logic to the skin under the hair: cleansing frequency, barrier condition, irritation and flaking all behave much as they do on the face, with the added variables of density and product build-up. Soothing and exfoliating approaches both exist, and over-exfoliating an already irritated scalp is a common way to make flaking worse rather than better.

We currently track 4 published products here. Every entry is compiled from manufacturer ingredient disclosures, published cosmetic science literature and UK retailer listings. We do not run clinical trials, and we do not publish a product until its formulation details have been checked against a source we can cite.
Formulation: INCI lists, key actives, fragrance and alcohol status where the brand discloses them.
Evidence: what the published research suggests for the key ingredients, and what it does not establish.
UK availability: retailer listings and prices, with the date each was last checked. Where a price is not recent enough to quote, we say “check latest price” instead of guessing.
