By the end of the week, your hair has been through a lot. Dry shampoo on day three. Hot tools on day four. Heaters cranking, scarves rubbing, dry ends that feel more autumn leaf than silk. Your scalp feels heavy and oily. Your lengths feel thirsty and damaged. And no single product can fix both at once.
This weekly hair care routine gives your scalp and your ends exactly what each one needs, at the same time, in the same 20 minutes.
Your Scalp Care + Dry Ends Duo
POLLEINE Pre-Shampoo Scalp Treatment. A cult formula since 1969, this 100% plant-based scalp concentrate blends 10 essential oils for the scalp to purify, balance, reduce excess sebum, and fortify hair from the roots. The ultimate first step for a healthy scalp.
PHYTO 7 ELIXIR Enhancing Oil for Dry Ends. A silicone-free hair oil with 7 precious botanical oils that nourish, soften, and add shine to dry, damaged hair without weighing it down. Choose Universal for fine, normal, and dry hair, or Smoothing for thick, dry, and damaged hair.
The 20-Minute Sunday Hair Ritual, Step by Step
FIRST: Apply your pre-shampoo scalp treatment.
On dry hair, apply POLLEINE directly to the scalp. Work section by section with the pipette. The first thing you’ll notice is the scent, essential oils of eucalyptus and lavender meeting rosemary and lemon. The second? A cool rush of freshness across your scalp. Now for the scalp massage: slow circles with your fingertips, loosening the roots to stimulate microcirculation and let the tension go.
SECOND: Treat dry ends with hair oil.
Warm a few drops of PHYTO 7 ELIXIR Enhancing Oil between your palms. Smooth it through your lengths and concentrate on the ends, where dryness and damage live. Feel the hair oil glide in, silky and weightless.
THIRD: Set the timer. Do nothing.
Twenty minutes is the magic number for both the scalp treatment and the hair oil, so they work side by side while your self-care routine takes over. Run a bath. Sink into the sofa. Pour a café crème and take it to the balcony. When the timer goes off, rinse thoroughly, then shampoo as usual.
The Results: A Healthy Scalp and Silky, Shiny Ends
Your scalp feels light, purified, and rebalanced. Your dry ends feel soft enough to keep touching. And your hair moves with the kind of shine that only comes from caring for every inch of it, root to tip.
How Often to Use a Pre-Shampoo Scalp Treatment
Once a week. POLLEINE is designed as a weekly scalp treatment, making it the perfect anchor for your Sunday reset. On the other six days, a drop or two of PHYTO 7 ELIXIR hair oil on dry ends keeps the glow going.
