Could This Enzyme-Rich Scalp Treatment Be The Key To Healthier Hair? #ScalpTok Thinks Yes

It doesn’t matter how expensive your shampoo is, or how many pumps of leave-in conditioner you comb through your hair. If you’re ignoring your scalp, you might be keeping yourself from your healthiest hair ever. Since your scalp is skin, too, it makes sense that it requires a bit of pampering, and the influx of scalp care products and social media trends like #ScalpTok (which currently has more than 49 million views on TikTok) is proof that people are more tuned in to scalp care than ever before. And while factors like genetics and hormones can affect your scalp's health, an all-around treatment aimed at removing product buildup and nourishing the skin on your scalp is a solid place to start for achieving better hair days. Skin care brand COSMEDIX has developed its Fortify Cooling Enzyme Scalp Treatment, a weekly pre-cleanse treatment that targets dry scalps and hair using a blend of gentle exfoliators and soothing plant extracts.

Ahead, learn more about the key ingredients the product uses to transform your scalp, and the foolproof way to add it into your routine.

The Fortify Scalp Treatment uses a blend of botanical extracts to slough away dead skin cells and product buildup without causing irritation or leading to scalp dryness in the long run. Pumpkin ferment extract is the key ingredient in here, which has potential exfoliating benefits while also being rich in conditioning vitamins. There are also multiple soothing and hydrating ingredients at play, including everyone’s favorite, hyaluronic acid, as well as rhodiola rosea root extract, green tea leaf extract, and panthenol. Antioxidant-rich fruit extracts like apple and raspberry provide added protection from environmental stressors, and the treatment even contains rosemary extract, which has been trending on its own on social media due to its ability to potentially reduce scalp inflammation and even help encourage healthy hair growth.

The scalp treatment is also incredibly easy to incorporate into your routine. First, you only need to use it once each week to see results.. And second, it was designed to be used before you hop in the shower by applying the treatment directly along your scalp and massaging it into the roots of your hair with your fingers or a scalp brush. After the treatment has had a chance to sit for three to five minutes, you’re ready to go about your shower routine: simply rinse the treatment out and follow up with your usual shampoo and conditioner of choice.
