The 100 points
We split Scalp Revival Charcoal + Coconut Oil Micro-Exfoliating Scrub Shampoo into 4 standout parts. Each bar shows what the build earns.
Scalp-care ingredients (Charcoal Powder, Melaleuca Alternifolia Leaf Oil, Menthyl Lactate) are the reason to pick this over a plain wash.
The cleansing system sets how the shampoo lathers and how hard it washes. Sodium Lauroyl Methyl Isethionate, Cocamidopropyl Betaine, Sodium Methyl Oleoyl Taurate do this job here.
Humectants (Glycerin, Panthenol, Xylitylglucoside) pull in water and keep the hair feeling soft.
Cationic conditioning polymers cling to wet hair and cut tangles. Polyquaternium-7 play that role here.
Optional
68 / 100. We have not found a shelf product that closes more of the gap yet.
