Before you shortlist

Distinguish scalp application from hair-length care

For a hair range, identify whether the product is intended for scalp, lengths or styling, then confirm rinse-off or leave-on use. Compare the actual format rather than applying one routine to every care group.

Compare the care direction

Review where the selected product is intended to be applied, whether it is rinsed off and its listed texture. Make the intended scalp routine explicit in the enquiry.

Questions when choosing a formula

Can a hair-length product automatically be used on the scalp?

Check the specific product’s stated application and ask for confirmation. Do not infer the intended area from its appearance or a broad hair-care label.
