Pre-Shampoo Scrub Treatments

Biolage Offers a Scrub That Treats Users Hair and Scalps

While body and facial scrubs are commonly found on the market, hair scrubs are less common – but the hair care brand Biolage is helping to change that fact.

Called the Biolage Sugar Shine Polishing Hair Scrub, the product is meant to be used as a pre-shampoo treatment. It contains sugar that is able to gently remove buildup on the hair and scalp, and then dissolves once washed. It is to be used prior to shampooing by dividing the hair into three sections, applying a small amount of the scrub onto the scalp, and then gently massaging it into the hair starting from the roots.

The Biolage hair scrub would be especially useful for those who use many hair products, and would like an effective treatment that removes product buildup from the scalp.
