This Christophe Robin scalp scrub dupe is half the price
In the cooler months of the year how we take care of our skin adapts to address the stresses of colder weather, swift winds, scalding showers, and drying indoor heating.
But just like our skin care, our hair routine has to change in winter too.
A lack of moisture means we tend to reach for keratin bonding treatments (think: Olaplex and Simone Biles-approved K18), but our scalps need attention too. And although an in-shower scalp massage can be a welcome weekly ritual for promoting circulation, it's not going to purify the scalp of product build-up.
The best course of action? Investing in a scalp scrub that gently exfoliates the skin and resets the scalp, ensuring healthy strands and new growth. And when talking about the best scalp scrubs, it's hard not to mention the Christophe Robin Cleansing Purifying Scrub with Sea Salt ($72 from Sephora).

What are the key ingredients in Christophe Robin sea salt scrub?
Christophe Robin Cleansing Purifying Scrub with Sea Salt is formulated with 100 per cent plant active ingredients. Sea salt crystals to gently exfoliate, a natural carbohydrate complex, which rebalances the scalp and addresses dehydration, and Brazilian candeia tree extract, Bisabolol, which helps to calm the scalp as it cleanses.
How do you use Christophe Robin sea salt scrub? And how often should you use it?
Once a week, or immediately after a hair colouring treatment, just apply a tablespoon of product onto wet hair and gently massage the scrub into the scalp (including the nape of the neck) until it starts to emulsify. Then rinse the scalp thoroughly and follow with a detangling conditioner.

Body Blendz Scalp & Hair Scrub Shampoo
from $29.99 at Body Blendz
The Body Blendz Scalp & Hair Scrub Shampoo is one of the few scalp scrubs we've encountered that match the purifying and revitalising properties of the Christophe Robin scrub. Himalayan pink sea salt helps to loosen and dissolve product build up, dandruff and dead skin, as well as stimulating circulation. The formula is also infused with peppermint oil to relieve dry scalps, stimulate hair growth, and enhance shine. While, Abyssinia oil-based crambisol strengthens and promotes volume, vitamin E-rich jojoba oil protects the skin from free radicals and environmental stressors, which trigger premature aging. Then there's shea butter to protect the skin and repair damage caused by climatic aggressions, pollution and UV radiations, as well as, a negative charge neutralising complex that minimises static and frizz.
How to use:
Two to three times a week, simply apply a handful of Body Blendz Scalp & Hair Scrub Shampoo to wet hair and gently massage it into the scalp, building a rich lather, adding more water if necessary. Leave for a few minutes and enjoy the cooling sensation of the peppermint oil, then rinse thoroughly and finish with a nourishing hair mask or conditioner.
We'd recommend snagging the Body Blendz Hair Pro Duo Shampoo & Mask, which comes with the Body Blendz Scalp & Hair Scrub Shampoo, Body Blendz Hair Treatment Mask and a complimentary Body Blendz Bamboo Comb.
The best part? The Body Blendz Hair Pro Duo Shampoo & Mask is currently on sale at the Body Blendz website: Body Blendz Hair Pro Duo Shampoo & Mask ($55 (usually $59.98) from Body Blendz).
