[@semoneg2826]

Thank you

[@alneaimi48]

i’m obsessed with your routine and thoroughness of it and with your explanation as well! it’s so hard to find people/content such as this! thank you thank you🥰

[@summerreinholdt2620]

Always such informative videos! We all love your advice/suggestions! 💛

[@bluesummers5051]

I started experimenting with the Ordinary’s HA + B5 on my hair and have been loving how great it makes it look. As a guy with short hair, the consistency is great for styling too. Might have to give Necessaire and the scalp moisturizer a shot now!

[@felixw1353]

Thank you so much!! I am obsessed with scalp hair 🤗 great product recommendations as always 😍😍

[@phoebhee]

I'm also very prone to flaky and itchy scalp. I find that anything with sulfate triggers it. After trying a lot of products, I've settled on the soapberry shampoo from Tree to Tub and my scalp has been healthy ever since!

[@Samalys71]

In another one of your vids you recommended the briogeo line and it's been life changing!! Thanks for the new recs, XX ❤️

[@andreeaene4425]

I would love a routine for oily scalp please. Thank you for all your videos, sending you a big hug 😘

[@Realshugarbaby]

Just bought the scalp serums from TO and then I saw your video. Really makes me happy I splurged!

[@asheelizabeth9799]

Thank you always for your tips! Have been watching your channel for years

[@ajmahamr]

omg! just in time again. i needed this for my mom. huhu. thanks renée.❤️

[@Adriana-ej3fd]

I’m so glad you made a video about this. I hair the same scalp issues as you do but there are basically no other KZbinrs who talk about this.

[@semoneg2826]

Not true, there's a few dermatologist as Dr Grey and Dr Vanita Rattan Who spoke about this.. you just have not found their page as yet

[@LyssaHirsche]

This has been such a helpful informative video! Thank you so much for making this! ❤

[@giladddable]

So happy that you're uploading videos again 😭😭😭😭 a question Renee, what do you think about epidermal growth factors? Got any products recommendations?

[@annabrown7442]

Thank you so much!!! You have the most informative videos!!!

[@simonevanvuuren3901]

Love the theory of scalp care over hair care. Only just getting into scalp care now!

[@ellenhendricks4606]

I wish I had watched this video sooner!! Best I've found yet!!

[@cecilieharris]

Okay, now I'm gonna have to get the Necessaire scalp duo! Great insight. I already have and love the rest of their collection and I absolutely love it, so now I simply must get this to finish off my collection. Whilst we Necessaire addicts are talking amongst ourselves, did anyone else jump on their new eucalyptus body lotion when it was released the other day? I had been hoping they would release this for a while, so I can't wait to try it.

[@CallMeGameGirl]

Omg finally a solution. I don't understand why there aren't more shampoo sets made for scalp care when it comes to keeping the skin moisturized. I only ever see like scalp exfoliates. But shampoo is soooo drying. My scalp used to be fine in my 20s. But last couple years once in 30s, My scalp has become more dry and I hate always feeling like I need to itch it. And oils just tend to make my roots oily and then I gotta wash yet again lol. I'll definitely be trying these products, they seem like just the solution!

[@YT-qh2ez]

Yessss scalp is an extension of our face!

[@Anna-xt7gq]

my scalp is so flaky! thank you renee 🙏🏿

[@b3llav1ta]

I thought I’m the only one who’s been suffering from flaky scalp this winter 😭 I have been using The Ordinary Glycolic once a week ~ but definitely going to incorporate the HA from them, too. Thanks, Renee! 😘

[@younesdaoudi7375]

Scalp health is skin health 👏🏼

[@sweetyft]

I’ve actually been using the Ordinary Natural Moisturizing Factors + for Scalp on my face and I like it a lot as an extra moisture step.

[@F.R.F937]

Same 😅

[@jackielopez9739]

Now i gotta try it. I am always having issues with a dry scalp and i use skincare products to help with the dryness so I am exited to try a good cobdinitoner for the scalp

[@lisacamara1979]

Excellent video, thank you 😊

[@mariaa.7327]

OMG René, we have the same tiles in the shower 🚿 . Love your style 😄

[@fiddyteen]

Hey Renée right on time as I’ve shaved my head.

[@jkathymeier6891]

I watched this video, then I went & purchased Necessaire shampoo & conditioner, plus a free shower wash. Wow I couldn't believe how it took so much of the color out of my newest salon har color,. Neeedless to say I was upset upset, plus the shampoo is VERY drying, until you use the conditioner. However I do watch your channel & enjoy what you have to say. Namaste, Yoga Kat AZ

[@ginafriend1690]

Thank you! xx

[@marianne6373]

Contniu scalp scrubs, both the one with BHA and the one with AHA. That's all I have to say ❤️ Well, one more thing : Boots pharmacy has a kind of fragrance free scalp lotion that is amazing, but difficult to find. Hope they haven't discontinued it.

[@noeinroad7294]

I have been waiting for this to happen. I struggle with eczema psoriasis on my scalp yet my hair is dry. I've been waiting for something that would balance my scalp. Thank you.

[@F.R.F937]

Same, its just horrible, i have been dealing with it for years now

[@cadenasval]

same :/

[@Amber-ij9ch]

Oh, please share where you purchased your spray bottle from! It’s so adorable and looks higher quality than what I’ve found.

[@minutesofskincare399]

Missed you 💅🏻

[@saltedfish5358]

Nice👌 Was looking for a video on scalp treatment for a long time Is It okay to use aha toners on scalp for exfoliation???

[@bronsiee]

I'm literally sitting here bemoaning my itchy psoriasis and see this video. Clicked so fast!

[@sarae.b4733]

oily scalp routine plz 🙏

[@funnybookworm09]

Thanks for the code. I got the shampoo. Caveat: I have scalp psoriasis and I used the Paula’s Choice on my scalp as a pre wash and it was very, very bad. My scalp was extremely red, itchy and angry. Be warned before trying this if you have a scalp condition. Since then, I’ve used the Inkey List’s 2% SA hair treatment with no issues. Just FYI ☺️ Can’t wait to try the Necessaire!

[@MultiFluffyMuffin]

have the tried Necassaire yet? I'm really tempted to buy it but it's quite pricey

[@funnybookworm09]

@@MultiFluffyMuffin Yes. It is pricey but for me it works well and I haven’t found a drugstore dupe. Note: if you try it and don’t like it, refunds are super easy!

[@annaantonio8673]

Yay!!!

[@21sugarrush]

I wanted to know if you have tried the Ordinary sulphate 4% hair and body cleanser? How does it compare?

[@kanchanpathak3555]

What do you think about oils on hair once a week and which ones to use?

[@1024specialkay]

I have seborrehic dermatitis and always have an itchy scalp with drandruff. Do you think the necessaire scalp duo will help?

[@k_a3785]

Can you check Briogeo’s scalp revival line? It’s about calming and cleansing the scalp, I got a pretty sensitive scalp so I’m a bit hesitant

[@andrew-song]

I know this is a month late, but she has discussed/reviewed that line in her past hair care videos.

[@naanee9275]

Hi renee, do I need to use SPF on scalp/hair after using acid treatment on scalp ?

[@michelewilliamson5246]

I was wondering if you colour your hair?

[@margotrobbie8582]

Recommend affordable products pls

[@aintnobodysgirl]

I’ve been searching your videos but can’t find your recommendation for a pre wash oil… did I hallucinate this? 🤗

[@soralasilber9737]

Does this shampoo cause any hair loss or shedding and is it good for sensitive scalp oily scalp

[@tersono]

I wonder if you'd ever tried a period of going fragrance-free? Like for a few days, weeks or a month? I have really reactive, sensitive skin - I'll get hives out of seemingly nowhere. Moisturizing and repairing the skin barrier helps but recently I decided to go fragrance-free in all my products. I love fragrance so much, but I was just tired of the itching and reactivity. It made a huge difference in less than a week. It's hard to give up but it has changed my skin from head to toe. I'm hopeful that doing this most of the time will allow me to re-introduce a single fragranced product occasionally and tolerate it, and at least that might help me understand which work for me and which to avoid, but when I'm using so many things, samples and testing out fun things, my skin just gets overloaded.

[@kimberlyprice5398]

I agree! Harder to find fragrance free hair products but no more itching and I am getting a lot of baby hairs...growing in thicker. Have been fragrance free for skin care for a long time but didn't realize I was having issues on my scalp as well.....

[@supervixen8556]

I suffer from scalp folliculitis, flakey scalp, tried every topical prescription shampoo, topical medication and would still break out and flake so I stopped and have been taking oral antibiotics that is the only that works, but if I stop, the bumps come and flaking starts over right away. My hair looks like shit. If I use anything but shampoo, like products, my scalp Immediately breaks out. I want to try these products, but affraid to try these as my doctors just can’t figure out wth is causing this to happen to my scalp for 5 years 😭

[@lorihouse1766]

What is it called

[@aprilmozuch7784]

I’ve been suffering from seborrheic dermatitis on the scalp for almost a year & it’s caused a lot of hair loss 😢 steroid shots from dermatologist hasn’t work would you recommend any of these products for that?

[@PinCushionQueen]

The Ordinary Peptide serum Renee mentioned is perfect for that. Use it regularly, be patient & you’ll see results.

[@sunflower2036]

Have you used Eucerin urea scalp calming lotion?

[@zaria5785]

I didn’t know Eucerin even made such a product!

[@twobluestripes]

Whaaaat is this in the US?

[@sunflower2036]

I didnt know too but i was looking into scalp exfoliation and found a study howing lactic acid and its benefit on scalp ( pls dnt take my word for it and look into the research) & one thing lead to another and found eucerin dermocapillare scalp calmimg treatment which contains lactic acid. Ever since that i have been searching youtube for review etc :(

[@aarontheabc]

❤👏

[@I-Khan75]

Wow! Thank you soo much for addressing scalp health, hair care is really over rated..!! Subscribed..!!

[@moonblinked]

does the necessaire shampoo lather up? i need my shampoos to lather

[@Emjaypeace4]

ah im so sick of companies using niacinamide in everything. It just is a trigger for my skin. So sad.

[@maotyle7639]

The code GOTHAMISTA10 doesn't not work for me... not sure why, doesn't anyone know?! Thanks

[@fiddyteen]

Worked for me a few hours ago.

[@maotyle7639]

Because I choose as a subscription, that's why it was not working. Thanks 😊
