Everyone wants their hair to feel good and look good, but we know that lots of people deal with common hair care woes including brassiness, dry scalp, oily roots or damage. Don't fret, lots of brands have released products that target these specific concerns, one being Moroccanoil and their Dry Scalp Treatment. They also offer other treatment-specific solutions including the Oily Scalp Treatment. While dry scalp might be something that is commonly linked to the winter months and cold temperatures, it is something that is also an issue in the summer as well - all thanks to lake swims and high temperatures. Aka your scalp prefers a temperature like Goldilocks prefers her oatmeal, not too hot, not too cold, just right. So what makes the Moroccanoil Dry Scalp Treatment so noteworthy? Lets get into it.
What Makes It Noteworthy
The Moroccanoil Dry Scalp Treatment is a pre-shampoo serum – this alone sets it apart from most dry scalp remedies that are used in the shower in the form of a treatment shampoo, ie: you apply then rinse it off quite quickly. Instead, the serum is designed to be left on your scalp for up to 10 minutes so that it has time to work. It is formulated with Argan Oil, Geranium Oil, Lavender, Salicylic Acid and Vitamin E to balance moisture levels, soothe dry, itchy scalp and gently exfoliate. It is also designed to not only treat dry scalp, but to help prevent it from coming back - now this is something we can get behind!
How To Use It
The Moroccanoil Dry Scalp Treatment is meant to be applied to dry hair, before you shower, and left on for up to 10 minutes. The bottle and dropper are designed with application in mind and make it super easy to apply directly to your scalp, so its not messy or difficult - even for newbies. Simply section your hair and use the dropper to apply a couple drops directly to your scalp along each parted section. For my first go at this, I did approximately 5 sections in total. Massage the product into the roots and scalp to disperse. Don’t be alarmed, at this point your hair will look greasy – don’t panic, trust the process! Leave the product on to work its magic for 10 minutes then hop in the shower and follow with your normal hair care routine. I have to admit, on my first use, I was skeptical. My hair looked greasy and messy but I put my faith in the brand and knew I had to get to the end result before making a judgement.
The Results
Once my hair dried, I can’t even explain how much better my hair looked overall. My roots were voluminous, not at all greasy or oily, and my scalp felt great. While I was hoping to target dry scalp alone, I was not expecting the other benefits and results that I saw, so that was a huge bonus! While the bottle might seemed small for the price tag, I assure you that this will last you a long time. Since this product is applied directly to the scalp, you don’t need to use more no matter what type of hair you have or how long it is. The potent formula goes a long way so you will be able to reap the benefits for a long time to come. Personally, this was a game changer for me. Everyone has hair issues, but luckily brands like Moroccanoil have worked on products that treat them at the root, quite literally in this case, to help us all have our best hair ever.
