BYKYND LABS Avocado Oil Scalp Scrub — Grapefruit & Pumice Exfoliating Treatment, Vegan Gluten-Free

BYKYND LABS Avocado Oil Scalp Scrub is a plant-powered exfoliating treatment that removes buildup, soothes dryness, and delivers lightweight hydration using natural pumice, avocado oil, and grapefruit extract.

Designed as a pre-shampoo scalp treatment, this scrub combines cold-pressed avocado and tamanu oils with gentle AHAs (glycolic and lactic acids), pumice grains, grapeseed and grapefruit extracts to refresh the scalp without heavy residue. It targets flakes, product buildup, and rough patches while supporting moisture balance and maintaining color-treated hair. The vegan, gluten-free formula is free of common harsh additives and aims to leave the scalp feeling cleaner and hair softer after regular use.

How does this scrub remove buildup without irritating the scalp?

The formula pairs physical exfoliation from fine pumice with mild chemical exfoliants (glycolic and lactic acids) to lift dead skin and product residue without aggressive abrasion. Oils like avocado and tamanu cushion the exfoliation, helping the skin stay hydrated during the process.

• Fine, natural pumice granules for controlled mechanical exfoliation
• Glycolic and lactic acids for gentle chemical sloughing of dead skin
• Cold-pressed oils reduce friction and soothe during use
• No harsh sulfates or irritating additives

Will it make hair oily or weigh down color-treated strands?

The scrub is formulated to deliver moisture without a greasy finish; avocado and tamanu oils are fast-absorbing and meant to hydrate the scalp rather than sit on the hair shaft. It’s labeled safe for color-treated hair when used as a pre-shampoo treatment and rinsed thoroughly before conditioning.

• Lightweight oil blend that absorbs quickly
• Designed as a rinse-out treatment prior to shampoo
• Suitable for color-treated hair when used per directions
• Helps manage oil production through regular exfoliation

How often should I use the scalp scrub and how do I apply it?

For most people, using the scrub 1–2 times weekly as a pre-shampoo treatment is effective for maintaining scalp clarity and comfort. Apply to wet hair, massage gently into the scalp in sections, then rinse and follow with your usual shampoo and conditioner.

• Use 1–2 times per week for maintenance
• Apply to wet hair and massage for 1–2 minutes per area
• Rinse well, then shampoo and condition as normal
• Adjust frequency for sensitive scalps or visible irritation

Which ingredients provide calming and nourishing effects?

Grapefruit and grapeseed extracts contribute antioxidant support and astringent properties that can help calm discomfort, while avocado and tamanu oils supply vitamins and essential fatty acids for nourishment. The combination aims to soothe irritation and leave the scalp feeling balanced after treatment.

• Grapefruit extract for soothing and a mild clarifying effect
• Grapeseed extract to support skin comfort and clarity
• Cold-pressed avocado oil for vitamins A, D, and E
• Tamanu oil to help nourish and support scalp moisture
