1. Deep yet gentle purification for the scalp
Powered by amino acid–based surfactants and a low-pH formula, this shampoo gently removes buildup, excess oil, and impurities without stripping the scalp’s natural barrier. It leaves your scalp feeling refreshed, not tight or squeaky.
2. Stimulates microcirculation to support hair growth
Manual massage paired with circulation-boosting ingredients like Panax Ginseng, Arnica, and Swertia Japonica helps encourage blood flow at the follicle level—essential for nourishing the roots and supporting healthy hair growth.

A symphony of 23 Japanese and Western plant extracts work harmoniously to calm irritation and restore scalp balance.
Highlights include:

4. Reinforces the foundation for stronger, shinier hair
This isn’t just about cleansing. By restoring scalp clarity and improving the follicular environment, the shampoo sets the stage for healthier hair that’s more resilient, less prone to breakage, and noticeably glossier over time.
5. A sensory experience designed to slow you down
The light, creamy texture and subtle herbal-citrus scent make every wash feel like a calming reset. Gentle fingertip massage turns a routine step into a meaningful moment of care—for your scalp and your state of mind.

Scalpcare is skincare for your head. Approach shampooing your hair as if you were cleansing your face of makeup, dirt and debris from your day to reset your skin.
1. Pump product into wet hands and mix the formula on your palm in a quick, circular motion to create a thick, fine, foamy lather (see product image #5).
2. Then, apply generously all over your hair and head, using your fingertips (but avoid scratching with your nails!) to massage the foam into the scalp.
NOTE: Massaging and stimulating the scalp not only deeply cleans each hair follicle, which is great for hair growth and health, but it is also good for your scalp and overall wellbeing (relieves stress & tension, improves blood circulation to head & neck, lowers blood pressure, etc.) So, enjoy this step as a great self-care ritual and try not to rush through.
3. After you've covered all the areas on your head, wash off with warm water and follow with our Scalp Massage Conditioner.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I’ve been really impressed with this shampoo. I originally got it for scalp health but noticed it’s actually helping with my grays — my hair looks more vibrant and healthy overall. It lathers nicely, rinses clean, and doesn’t leave any buildup. Definitely repurchasing!

I really like the scent. It lathers well and feels great to use, so I'll keep using it.
It lathers really well and the bubbles feel fine, so it cleans right down to the scalp and leaves it feeling fresh.
I used to notice greasiness, but since using this I don't seem to feel it as much.
The ingredients are gentle on hair, so I'd like to keep using it.
The scent is fresh and nice too.
I do exercises where I sweat a lot, so my hair and scalp tend to get oily, but the finish is refreshing and very nice. I keep it in my room so family doesn't use it.
My scalp — which had sweated a lot during summer — feels refreshed.
The good lather makes shampooing with massage feel good.
The lavender scent is also nice.
It does feel a bit dry after drying, so a conditioner is needed.
When I use it, my hair becomes smooth and manageable — very satisfied!
The packaging was a bit excessive and hard to dispose of…
My scalp dryness and itch just wouldn't go away and I'd been trying various shampoos.
Since I started using this shampoo, my scalp dryness has been kept in check, and the dry patches have become more hydrated.
It lathers well and washes smoothly, so I naturally stopped scrubbing hard.
The scent is also very good.
The lather I couldn't get from other companies' well-reviewed scalp shampoos for hair growth, and the sensation of gentle-yet-thorough scalp washing, and the rinsed feel where my hair feels fuller from within rather than just on the surface —
the next morning my hair is fuller, smooth, moisturized, and shiny too,
feeling the beauty of my hair as if young again — a good impression from day one. I now want to try the treatment too!
It was my first scalp shampoo, and I thought it's perfect for summer. My scalp feels refreshed and the finish feels refreshing. Just, it's a bit pricier than regular shampoo…
The lather is so good you forget it's a scalp product, and I was surprised my hair doesn't feel squeaky after washing. About 2 weeks in — very satisfied.
The scent is also subtle, a citrus that's just right for this season.
I bought the scalp shampoo. The finish is refreshing with a feeling of a fresh scalp. It lathers well and I feel I can wash my hair and scalp thoroughly — easy to use. It's also easy on days I'm concerned about oiliness, and I'd like to keep using it.
The design is stylish and easy to match with interiors, which is a nice point. It lathers well so it reaches the scalp and leaves it refreshed. The soft citrus scent that spreads is really soothing! The finish is also smooth, so I can easily do beautiful-hair care — satisfied.
I've repurchased many times.
Gentle on the scalp and the scent is nice.
I love it!
I bought this because scalp oiliness was bothering me. It lathers well and cleans thoroughly even with a small amount, so it's easy to use. The finish is refreshing, but I didn't notice much squeakiness either. The scent isn't too strong and I think it's easy to use daily. I'd like to keep using it and see how my scalp environment changes.
First of all, the scent is really nice. Is it lemon? You don't find shampoos that smell this good very often, I think. And the lather is amazing!
It rinses out cleanly too, leaving a refreshed yet moisturized feel.
I'd been bothered by dryness and scalp itchiness, so I used this. The fine lather and gentle scent enveloped me — a good feel. I'm also putting effort into the massage. I feel I'm getting closer to moisturized, smooth hair. I'm happy.
My extremely fine hair seems to have gained some body.
I'd really like to keep using it!
Repurchase. A product I wish came in a refill without a bottle.
Maybe from stress, my bangs seemed to be thinning a bit, so I was looking for a shampoo for scalp massage. I bought this shop's shampoo since I'd liked another product I purchased before. I wanted scalp care, so honestly I didn't expect much in terms of scent, but I was surprised how nice it smelled. It doesn't get squeaky, and it seems good for my hair too. I'll keep using it for a while.
It smells really nice and was soothing.
I plan to buy it again next time.
I've used several amino acid shampoos, but this one was a shampoo where I felt a change in body and bounce within a week of use. The lather and scent are both lovely and soothing. I'd like to repurchase.
I was looking for a product with scalp care and bought this. The scent and lather are both good and I really liked it, so I'd like to keep using it for a while.
When I use this product, my hair doesn't feel dry even without using a treatment. The fine lather and smooth feel are nice.
I'll keep using it a bit longer.
It lathers really well, and my scalp feels refreshed after washing. With continued use, I can feel more body and strength in my hair, and I'm satisfied with the finish.
I was looking for an amino acid shampoo and chose this one. The feel isn't squeaky, and the refreshing scent is to my liking. My hair stays smooth until the next day without conditioner — I'm satisfied.
The shampoo itself is great. It lathers well and my hair feels fluffy after drying. However, maybe my pump was defective, but jelly-like clumps of shampoo come out from between the pump parts every day, which is stressful. If that could be fixed, it'd be perfect.
Since using this shampoo, I feel my hair has more body and strength.
I bought this because I was concerned about my scalp odor. It lathers well, leaves my hair feeling moisturized even with just shampoo, and felt great to use. After washing, the scalp odor didn't bother me anymore. I want to keep using it.
I've only been using it for about a week, but it seems to suit me. It lathers well and feels refreshing after washing! The scent is nice too. Since it's also scalp care, I'm looking forward to seeing how things go with continued use.
After using it for a week, my scalp dryness isn't bothering me anymore. I'd been dealing with dryness and itchy scalp this season, but with continued use, my scalp feels cared for and my hair feels more hydrated too. The gentle lavender scent and good lather make it easy to wash, and it's also easy to scalp massage while washing — two birds with one stone.
I tried it right away.
It seems to suit me — my scalp feels lighter, and I want to keep using it.
Maybe that's a sign my scalp usually takes some damage.
I thought it was a bit pricey, but at my age, I feel this kind of care is necessary.
FAQ's for Scalp Shampoo
Keeping your scalp healthy is essential for maintaining healthy hair and preventing various hair and scalp issues. The scalp is the foundation of healthy hair growth and plays a crucial role in hair health. A healthy scalp promotes healthy hair growth by providing the necessary nutrients and oxygen to the hair follicles. It also keeps the hair follicles clean and free of debris, which can lead to hair loss and other scalp problems. A healthy scalp is also essential for preventing dandruff, itching, and dryness, which can cause discomfort and embarrassment. By maintaining good scalp health through proper nutrition, hydration, and regular cleansing, you can promote healthy hair growth and prevent a wide range of scalp problems.
If you have short hair, 1 pump should be enough. For medium length hair, use 2 pumps. For long hair, or if you have a lot of hair, use 3 pumps. As preferences are different each individual, please adjust to your needs as you use the Shampoo.
As per the directions above, don't use your nails when you are doing the massage. Make sure you are massaging with your finger tips. Also, instead of "rubbing" the scalp, the ideal motion may feel like you are "moving" the scalp a little bit as you massage the head. If you hold a lot of tension in your head or have high levels of stress, you may find that this is hard to do - which means that you need the scalp & head massage all the more!
Scalp massage is a great way to promote scalp health and improve hair growth. Massaging the scalp increases blood circulation to the hair follicles, which delivers essential nutrients and oxygen to promote healthy hair growth. It also helps to remove any buildup of dead skin cells or excess oil that can clog hair follicles and inhibit hair growth. Scalp massage also promotes relaxation and reduces stress, which can contribute to hair loss. Additionally, massaging the scalp can stimulate the production of sebum, a natural oil that lubricates and protects the hair and scalp. It also helps to improve the overall texture and appearance of the hair, making it look shinier and healthier. Regular scalp massage, done with gentle pressure using the fingertips, can have a significant impact on scalp health and hair growth over time.
Results differ greatly from person to person depending on their current scalp and hair condition as well as how quickly your hair grows and your scalp turnover rate. Because the product aims to address the 'root' of the problem by creating an ideal environment for healthy, natural hair growth, it will take some time for your natural hair and scalp to fully transform. For some, it can take as long as 6 months to full recover, however, once you do, you will be able to maintain it as long as you continue with your healthy scalp & haircare routine!
You are probably not washing your hair thoroughly enough after the shampoo. Especially at the beginning, the Scalp Massage Shampoo cleans out clogged hair follicles and the surface of the scalp of dead skin cells, dirt and oil. So, if you do not wash your hair thoroughly after the shampoo, the debris that you declogged can get stuck in your hair strands. If the flaking continues, please consult your dermatologist.
