What it is: A deep-cleansing scalp scrub that combines sea salt exfoliation with Regenerative Organic Certified™ buckwheat extract to purify the scalp, remove product buildup, environmental impurities, and metal pollutants from the hair shaft — leaving hair lighter, refreshed, and with noticeably more texture and structure.

Hair Texture: Straight, Wavy, Curly, Coily

Hair Type: Fine, Medium, Thick

Hair Concerns:

• Scalp Buildup & Congestion
• Anti-Pollution & Metal Detox
• Oily Scalp
• Dryness & Dehydration

Key Benefits:

• Sea salt crystals physically exfoliate the scalp to remove buildup, dead skin cells, and environmental debris — leaving the scalp refreshed and pores clear
• Clinically tested anti-pollution action: effectively washes away heavy metals (Nickel, Cadmium, Lead) from the hair shaft in ex vivo testing — representative of pollutants found in urban air*
• Regenerative Organic Certified™ Buckwheat Extract (Polygonum Fagopyrum Seed Extract) locks in moisture and shields hair from dryness post-cleanse — preventing the stripped feeling common with clarifying products
• Adds texture and structure to the hair shaft — ideal as a pre-style prep for volume and grip
• 93.2% naturally derived ingredients; 99.9% biodegradable formula; vegan
• Use every second or third wash alternating with shampoo — not a daily replacement

Highlighted Ingredients:

• Maris Sal (Sea Salt): Fine salt crystals provide physical scalp exfoliation, lifting buildup and impurities; also adds natural texture and structure to the hair shaft post-rinse
• Polygonum Fagopyrum (Buckwheat) Seed Extract — Regenerative Organic Certified™: Sourced from Mr. Michele Aina's farm in Romentino, Novara, Italy; contains polysaccharides that lock in moisture and shield hair from dryness, and antioxidants that protect hair health post-cleanse
• Sodium Lauroyl Methyl Isethionate + Sodium Cocoyl Isethionate: Mild isethionate-based surfactants that create a creamy, rich lather without the harshness of traditional sulphates
• Jojoba Esters: Waxy emollient that conditions the scalp surface and smooths the cuticle during the scrub step, balancing the physical exfoliation action
• Glyceryl Olivate: Olive-derived skin-identical emollient that helps maintain the scalp's moisture barrier post-scrub
• Pogostemon Cablin (Patchouli) Oil: Provides the base of the signature fragrance and contributes mild skin-conditioning properties

Ingredient Callouts: 93.2% naturally derived. 99.9% biodegradable. Vegan. Made in Italy. Sulphate-free surfactant system (no SLS/SLES — uses isethionate-based cleansers). Packaging in mass-balance recycled PP, fully recyclable.

What Else You Need to Know: Use every second or third wash, alternating with your regular shampoo — not a daily cleanser. Apply to wet hair, massage gently into the scalp to build a lather, and rinse thoroughly. Follow with a nourishing conditioner or mask, as the exfoliation step benefits from immediate moisture replenishment. In Metro Vancouver, hard water mineral deposits and urban pollution create a compounding layer of buildup on both the scalp and hair shaft — the SOLU scrub's dual-action exfoliation and anti-pollution mechanism addresses both in one step. For anyone using multiple styling products, dry shampoo regularly, or living in higher-pollution urban environments, this makes an effective monthly reset between your regular cleanse routine. See our Hard Water Hair Damage hub for the chelation protocol if mineral buildup is a primary concern. Authorized Davines retailer. Earn Beauty with Benefits points on this purchase.

Fragrance Description: A bold fusion of citrus and spice — fresh notes of lemon, bergamot, and patchouli unfold into delicate florals, settling into a warm, musky base with geranium and linalool.
