Density Boost Clarifying Foaming Scrub Scalp + Hair Therapy for gentle scalp exfoliation, with Vitamin B3, Zinc and 0% sulfates, 9 oz

Dove Density Boost Clarifying Foaming Scrub is an experience not just a Clarifying shampoo. I'm impressed. My stylist suggested I start using a Clarifying shampoo once a week so I decided Dove was a great starting price point and product for my needs. I followed the instructions on the bottle. I moistened my hair in the shower, applied Dove and worked it throughout my hair. Felt weird at first but once I got it all through my hair I could REALLY feel it. It's a scrub/ exfioliator so there's a grittiness to it. I applied a dime sized dollop to my short, thick hair and gently worked it through. Then the sensation began.... It's a wonderful, tingle that feels and smells amazing. It didn't burn but I could REALLY feel it. Smells & feels like Peppermint w/o any burning sensation that Peppermint can do. I worked it through for about 30 seconds then rinsed thoroughly, and washed my hair. This is not a shampoo, though it feels like it cleans. My scalp felt clean and less dry after I dried and styled my hair as usual. I am now a loyal Dove Clarifying user. Highly recommend.

I love Dove Density Boost Clarifying Foaming Scrub Scalp. My review involves the context of how I take care of my hair and then how I have added this product into my routine. In my mid 20s, I wanted to start my own haircare routine. This routine involves using a pre-wash conditioner to detangle my hair in the shower (and keep it detangled) while adding nutrients to my scalp, preventing hair loss, and keeping my hair smooth. I'd leave the conditioner in while showering and then use a conditioning shampoo, rinsing out my hair with lukewarm water. Lastly, I'd use a small amount of conditioner on the top of my head and then a little bit on the mid-lengths to the ends. I have noticed that my routine, while nourishing for my hair, was resulting in scalp buildup. This can be seen by small bumps on my scalp, that are like acne - they could take days to go away, and feel uncomfortable when brushing my hair. This product, the Dove Scalp Scrub, is meant to combat scalp acne like that. And I believe this is a great product to do so! Once a week, instead of pre-wash conditioner, I use the scalp scrub. For clarification, I take a shower anywhere from 3-4 times per week, with only one where I use this scrub. This scrub helps exfoliate my scalp very nicely. I have highly porous hair, meaning that my hair does not hold moisture in well, hence the routine that is intended to keep my scalp and hair moisturized. I notice that after using this scrub, my scalp feels a cool sensation, like I had just used a peppermint conditioner (very similar feeling)! I have no irritation from this scrub at all, nor do I have hair loss resulting from it. If anything, my scalp is very refreshed. This gives a "detoxifying" feeling, which I love. I would say this product is effective as well; after use, I do not develop buildup on my scalp (e.g., acne). It also helps reduce buildup. For further clarification, I still use my conditioning shampoo and regular conditioner after using this scalp scrub. Overall, I would recommend this product to friends or family if they need a safe and affordable addition to their haircare routine that'd lessen buildup and lead to a healthier-feeling scalp.

So far so good! I notice a definite difference in my scalp after one use. I usually have a very dry but oily scalp that flakes easily. This lathered in very nicely with a nice fragrance and my scalp feels much clearer! I’m excited to continue using this and so far it has been great.

I was a little surprised at how thick this was when I first squirted it out, trying to work it into my thick hair was a bit of a hassle but once you add some more water to it, you can feel it cleaning and clarifying your scalp I’ve used it three times so far and I’ve been impressed. Hasn’t left my hair dry at all. I have thick shoulder length hair. I’ll definitely repurchase, I’ve been followed up with a Dove shampoo and conditioner, or sometimes a hair mask from dove

Feels so good and minty on the scalp. I have a severe dry scalp and this helps exfoliate it and keep it feeling good. I do this before my clarifying shampoo each week and it helps my scalp stay healthy and my hair has started to grow more when paired with a scalp brush.
