FAQs

What is the Scalp Anti-Bacterial Formula?

The Scalp Anti-Bacterial Formula is a concentrated, water-free scalp serum, applied a drop at a time to areas of the scalp that feel dry, uncomfortable or in need of freshening. It leaves the scalp feeling clean, cool and refreshed. It is made with Manuka, Neem, Andiroba, Grapeseed, Hazelnut, Jojoba and Foraha Oils, Milk Thistle Extract and Vitamin E, with Tea Tree, Orange Peel, Oregano, Cedarwood, Geranium, Peppermint and Lemongrass essential oils. It is a cosmetic product, not a medicated one.

How do I use the Scalp Anti-Bacterial Formula?

Start with a single drop of the Scalp Anti-Bacterial Formula on your fingertip and gently massage it into the area of your scalp you want to care for. It is a leave-in formula, so there is no need to rinse it out. You can apply it up to three times a day, and regular use works best. A little goes a long way, so add more drops only if needed, keep it away from your eyes and wash your hands after applying it.

Is tea tree oil good for the scalp?

Tea tree oil is a popular scalp-care ingredient that leaves the scalp feeling clean and refreshed, and it is one of the key oils in the Scalp Anti-Bacterial Formula. It is strong, so it should always be diluted in carrier oils, as it is in ours, and never applied straight to the skin. Some people are sensitive to it, so try a small area first and stop using it if your scalp becomes red or irritated. For heavy flaking, redness or sores, see a dermatologist.

Why does my scalp smell?

A smelly scalp usually comes from oil, sweat and product buildup that sit on the scalp too long, and fresh, minty oils like those in the Scalp Anti-Bacterial Formula help it feel clean and smell fresh. Not washing often enough, working out, wearing hats or helmets, letting hair stay damp and heavy products can all add to it. Wash regularly, dry your hair and scalp fully, and clarify every two weeks. If the odor comes with redness, flaking or sores, see a dermatologist.

Is the Scalp Anti-Bacterial Formula a medicated treatment?

No. The Scalp Anti-Bacterial Formula is a cosmetic scalp serum made with plant oils and essential oils, not a medicated product or a drug. It is made to leave the scalp feeling clean, cool and comfortable, and it does not replace care from a doctor. If you have painful bumps, heavy flaking, patchy hair loss, sores or a scalp that keeps getting worse, see a doctor or dermatologist, who can find the cause and recommend the right care.

Is neem oil good for the scalp?

Neem oil is a rich plant oil pressed from the seeds of the neem tree, long used in traditional hair care to moisturize the scalp and condition the hair, and it is one of the main oils in the Scalp Anti-Bacterial Formula. It has a strong, earthy, garlicky smell, which is why it is usually blended with essential oils like Peppermint and Lemongrass, as it is in ours. Like any strong oil, try it on a small area of your scalp first.

What does the Scalp Anti-Bacterial Formula smell like?

The Scalp Anti-Bacterial Formula has a strong, fresh, herbal scent, with cool Peppermint and Tea Tree on top of the earthy notes of Neem and Manuka Oils, plus a touch of Lemongrass, Geranium, Cedarwood and Orange Peel. It contains no artificial fragrance. Peppermint gives a light, cooling feeling on the scalp, and many people like it after workouts. Because these oils are strong, keep it away from your eyes and face, and wash your hands after applying it.

Can I use the Scalp Anti-Bacterial Formula with my shampoo and conditioner?

Yes. The Scalp Anti-Bacterial Formula is a leave-in serum, so apply it after washing, to a clean, towel-dried or dry scalp, and pair it with a gentle shampoo and conditioner for a complete routine, such as our Scalp Shampoo or Itchy Scalp Calming Scalp Shampoo. A shower filter can also help, since it lowers the chlorine in your water. About every two weeks, our Vinegar Rinse Cleanser helps clear away buildup on the scalp.

Can men use the Scalp Anti-Bacterial Formula?

Yes. The Scalp Anti-Bacterial Formula works for men and women and for all hair types, including straight, curly, textured and chemically treated hair, and it also comes as our Men's Scalp Anti-Bacterial Formula, with the same formula. Because you apply it drop by drop, it works well on short hair and buzz cuts, where the scalp is easy to reach. After workouts or wearing a hat, a drop or two helps the scalp feel fresh.

Is the Scalp Anti-Bacterial Formula vegan, and does it contain nut oils?

The Scalp Anti-Bacterial Formula is 100% vegan and cruelty-free, never tested on animals, and every ingredient is listed on this page. It is water-free and alcohol-free, and free from parabens, sulfates and silicones. It contains Hazelnut and Foraha (Tamanu) Oils, so check the full list if you have a nut allergy. Its essential oils are strong, so try it on a small area first if your skin is sensitive. It is made in the USA by Just Nutritive, a women-owned company making natural hair and skin care since 2007.

I found it left my hair very oily. Decided to try much less. I have an itchy head and hoping with consistent use after shampooing, it will get better. So, still holding out on final evaluation.

Great Stuff!

I bought this for my husband, however, I started using it on a toenail that looked like the nail had fungus. I put a drop on the toenail everyday. When I saw my dermatologist for my yearly check I told her about the toenail. She looked at it and said it looked good and "whatever you are using, keep using it!" I will never be with out this!

Very Good Product.

It works on my itchy scalp. Also I found it works on my dark toe nails. I thought I would try it on my toe nails after my foot doctor told me it was normal for African Americans to have dark toe nails. My toe nails are almost back to normal color. Very good product I think.

Better than anything else yet

I have a chronic itchy scalp with Dermatologists mystified and with Rx products not helping. I use this formula after every wash (for which I use the calming scalp shampoo and conditioner) and, while it has a slightly acrid odor, it helps a lot; doesn't eliminate the problem but helps.

Helps so much!

I have seborrheic dermatitis and my scalp has been itchy than usual this winter so I decided to give this a try in addition to Just Nutritive's Itchy Scalp line that came in a kit. It took me a few weeks of 2 or 3 times of daily use for me to really appreciate it and see results. I'd put a drop or 2 in and Id find myself scratching a little later. But I kept using it cause I was desperate for relief even if it was temporary. But now it seems my scalp is more calm and under control as I dont itch as often, so I'm not scratching as much and thus dont have as many flakes as I once had. I can now go once a day, or even go a few days in between uses I was recently sick with the flu and lived in my bed for days and not be tormented by the incessant itchness that was once my scalp. Try this out but give it time to address and heal the needs of your scalp. It will thank you in the long run!

Very helpful

I have been using this on my 21 month old daughters scalp, who has been pulling out her hair at night. I've put drops in the area she has pulled out and other troubled areas. the bald areas show evidence of regrowth and her scalp appears moist. It does have a strong powerful smell, but I can get past it if it is going to help her scalp. Its easy to do spot treatments due to the attached dropper.
