What the gurus are saying

A dermatologist praises it as an effective exfoliating treatment that leaves the scalp and hair feeling clean, and suggests it works particularly well for those who rely on dry shampoo. However, another expert flagged it as potentially irritating for people with sensitive scalps, so those with a reactive scalp may want to patch-test first or use it sparingly to see how their skin responds.

"I love Living Proof's Scalp Exfoliator. This is a beautiful exfoliating treatment for your scalp. Especially if you're somebody who uses dry shampoo, I would highly recommend you do this like once or twice a week and your scalp feels so clean as does your hair."

"The Living Proof Scalp Exfoliator I think I recall when that came out and it did not look the friendliest for sensitive skin scalps."
