FAQs

How often should I use this serum?

For best results, apply it once daily, preferably in the evening before bedtime, to a clean scalp.

Can I use this product on my hair lengths?

While safe for hair, its primary benefit is targeted at the scalp. For hair hydration, a dedicated hair conditioner or leave-in treatment is more appropriate.

Will this serum make my hair greasy?

No, the formula is a lightweight, milky emulsion designed to absorb quickly into the scalp without leaving a greasy or heavy residue. Using only a few drops is key.

Is it suitable for sensitive scalps?

The product is formulated to support scalp health, but if you have a very sensitive scalp or known allergies, it's always recommended to perform a patch test before full application.

Does this product help with hair growth?

By providing essential hydration and supporting the scalp's barrier function, it creates a healthier environment which can indirectly benefit hair vitality. However, it is not specifically formulated as a hair growth treatment.

What are Natural Moisturizing Factors (NMF)?

NMF are components naturally found in the skin that help maintain its hydration and barrier function. This serum contains ingredients that mimic these natural factors to support scalp moisture.

Troubleshooting

Scalp still feels dry after use

Ensure consistent daily application, ideally overnight. Apply to a clean scalp to maximize absorption. You may also try applying a slightly larger amount if dryness is severe.

Product feels sticky or greasy on scalp

You might be using too much product. Start with just a few drops and spread evenly. Ensure your scalp is clean and free of heavy product buildup before application.

Not seeing immediate results

Scalp health improvements often take time. Consistent daily use for several weeks (e.g., 4-8 weeks) is typically required to observe significant changes in hydration and comfort. Be patient and consistent with your routine.

Product is pilling or flaking on scalp

This can happen if too much product is applied or if it's layered with incompatible heavy styling products. Try reducing the amount used or applying it to a slightly damp scalp before other products have fully dried.
