Reviews

Have you ever sweat???

"If you’ve ever been sweaty or have greasy hair this product is for you! Seriously it’s amazing. I have mildly greasy hair, I work out most days, and I’m a mom so there isn’t always time for a hair wash. this literally makes my hair feel like SO CLEAN- like that first sip of a crisp soda. 100/10 no notes."

— Rachel (5/5)

Expensive but worth it

"Definitely on the pricer side, but this smells great and helps clear my scalp up! The tingly feeling is quite pleasant and not painful. I used to use L’Occitane’s clarifying shampoo to treat my dandruff and oily scalp until they changed the formula and it stopped working, so I’ve been looking for something similar. This is great! The nozzle makes application very easy and mess-free. My only gripe is that $42 for 3. 4 oz is a bit of a squeeze. It’s more expensive than the giant bottle of shampoo I used to buy. I definitely would purchase again with a discount!"

— Sophie L. (5/5)

Clean scalp!

"Scalp has never felt so clean and fresh from the first use. This is one step I will always have in my hair routine going forward. Thank you Living Proof for another great product."

— Jennifer (5/5)

Excellent product, wish I tried it sooner

"This product is great for my scalp, before I never felt like it was getting clean with just shampoo (and clarifying shampoos can be too much) and that affected how other styling products acted. This left my hair feeling clean and soft while wet so I didn’t overdo it with too much styling product after shower."

— Mindy (5/5)

Scalp Care Massager

"Does what it says"

— Ann C. (5/5)

Great product

"Great product, less shedding after using just a few weeks"

— Lisa c. (5/5)

Great massager

"I’ve had massagers before, but this one is excellent. Highly recommend."

— Nina S. (5/5)

Less greasy scalp

"I initially got this as a sample in a previous order. I generally have really greasy fine hair and I have to wash it daily. I can get an extra day from a wash and my hair has more volume. It was worth a purchase of the full size."

— Carrie L. (5/5)

Left Burns After 1 Use

"My hair has been getting greasy so I grabbed this on a whim from Ulta. I'm 3 days after the first use and my scalp is inflamed. Itchy, visibly red, warm. I followed the directions exactly. Be careful if you have sensitive skin."

— Chelsea (1/5)

Love it

"I am usually hesitant to use a product that requires me to apply before my shower. I’m not the type of person that puts a lot of forethought into my pre-shower routine. What I love about this is the shorter time requirement. So many products need 10-15 minutes to work. With this one, I can easily apply it, get myself ready for my shower, then hop in and proceed as usual. I also love that I’ve exfoliated my scalp. I have one of those scalp brushes and like to use it when I shampoo. I have some smaller extensions so it’s not as easy anymore. With this product, I feel like I’m doing a better job at exfoliating without tangling anything in my extensions. I’d highly recommend this to anyone and everyone."
