It's easy to forget that our scalp is an extension of our skin, and deserving of the same care. And it's also a living organ and the basis for our long-term hair health.
This Shot is like a facial for the scalp! It combines the gentle exfoliation of Lactic Acid to clean and unclog follicles, with 3 soothing Actives to relieve dryness, itchiness, and irritation. We’ve added the probiotic skincare ingredient Papaya Ferment to keep the scalp’s microbiome in equilibrium, and finally, a bit of menthyl lactate to leave the scalp feeling cool and refreshed.
Now doesn’t that sound like a little Shot of scalp heaven?
This Shot has been developed to be compatible with most rinse-off hair products.
Safety, in terms of both people and the planet, is based on regulatory guidelines and further corroborated by the Environmental Working Group database, so you can be sure it's free from any chemicals or toxins of concern, and meets the strictest standards for your health.
