Healthy hair starts at the root. If you're dealing with dryness, itchiness, or buildup that makes your scalp feel anything but clean, your routine should start at the scalp, not just the strand.
Raw Sugar's scalp care collection is built on one idea: a balanced, nourished scalp is the foundation for hair that actually thrives. Every product is formulated without SLS/SLES sulfates, parabens, and silicones, and packed with purposeful ingredients like rosemary, activated charcoal, jojoba, and aloe that work with your scalp's biology, not against it.
From The Rosemary Vinegar Hair Rinse for a gentle refresh between wash days, to The Scalp Restore Shampoo for gentle cleansing, to the Scalp Scrub Micro Polish and The Scalp Restore Hair & Scalp Mask for a deeper detox, and gentle Kids' Scalp Care 2-in-1 for little ones — every product addresses real scalp concerns without stripping vital moisture.
Effective ingredients. Real results. Right at the root.
FAQ
My scalp feels itchy and tight after washing. What am I doing wrong?
Your shampoo is probably stripping your scalp. Harsh sulfates over-cleanse and leave the scalp dry and reactive. The fix is switching to a sulfate-free formula with hydrating ingredients like jojoba or aloe that cleanse without disrupting your moisture barrier. The Scalp Restore Shampoo is a good place to start.
What is a scalp detox, and how do I know if I need one?
A scalp detox removes the buildup regular shampoo leaves behind. You need one if your hair feels heavy shortly after washing, your scalp feels congested, or your products seem to have stopped working. The Scalp Scrub Micro Polish provides exfoliation with Micellar Water, Hyaluronic Acid, and Salicylic Acid that help clarify the scalp and promote better circulation.
My hair feels limp and weighed down right after washing. What's causing that?
Overuse of silicone and styling products can lead to over accumulation and weigh down hair over time. Regular shampoos do not remove buildup, so providing your hair and scalp with an exfoliating & clarifying reset is key. The Scalp Scrub Micro Polish helps remove deeper scalp buildup, while The Scalp Restore Shampoo helps keep your scalp balanced after.
How often should I use a scalp mask, and can I use it every week?
Once a week is the sweet spot for most people. Apply it directly to the scalp, leave it on for 5 to 10 minutes, then rinse. Oily scalp? Twice a week is fine. Dry or sensitive? Every 10 to 14 days is enough. Treat it like a facial mask, consistent but not overdone. The Scalp Restore Hair & Scalp Mask works well for that routine.
I color-treat my hair. Are these scalp care products safe to use?
Yes, as long as you use sulfate-free formulas, which won't strip your color or further sensitize the scalp. The one thing to keep in mind: wait 48 to 72 hours after a color service before doing any kind of scalp detox, to give your color time to set first. After that, The Scalp Scrub Micro Polish and The Rosemary Vinegar Hair Rinse are both gentle on color-treated hair.
