sebum balance hair bath

For oily scalps that need thorough cleansing without stripping

Zinc-enriched surfactants regulate sebum production at the source, biodynamic sage controls excess oil, and eyebright and black cohosh calm irritation.

with Biodynamic Sage

Sage oil contains thujone and camphor, compounds that help regulate sebaceous gland activity and reduce excess oil production. Its natural astringent properties tighten pores and keep the scalp feeling clean longer between washes.

with Organic Eyebright

Eyebright contains aucubin and flavonoids with anti-inflammatory and astringent properties that calm the itching and irritation often associated with oily, congested scalps. It helps restore comfort without interfering with the scalp's natural rebalancing process.

with Fair Trade Teak Wood

Teak wood extract contains quinones and lapachol that gently purify the scalp and help prevent the microbial overgrowth that thrives in sebum-rich environments. It supports long-term scalp equilibrium rather than just addressing surface oiliness.

with Black Cohosh Root

Black cohosh contains triterpene glycosides that help modulate hormonal signals involved in sebum overproduction. It works at a deeper regulatory level than surface-active ingredients, supporting a more sustained normalization of oil output over time.

✽ Sebum Regulation: Zinc surfactants control oil production at the source
✽ Deep Purification: Removes buildup and excess oil without over-stripping

✽ Extended Freshness: Reduces the need for frequent washing

The ritual.

✽ On dry hair, apply to the scalp in sections, massaging with circular motions. Gradually add water to create a creamy lather, leave on for a few minutes, then rinse. Repeat if needed.

✽ On wet hair (after applying Hydro-Balance Scalp Gel), massage into the scalp until a lather forms, then rinse thoroughly.

Use 1-2 times per week for best results.
