- Removes Heavy Metals from the Hair: Clinically tested to wash away nickel, cadmium, and lead deposits left by urban air pollution.
- Deep Cleanses Without Stripping: Amino-acid surfactants clear buildup while preserving the scalp's natural moisture barrier.
- Adds Texture and Structure: Salt exfoliation leaves the hair feeling fuller and more textured after rinsing.
- Refreshes the Scalp: Exfoliates dead skin cells and lifts sebum buildup for a lighter, healthier scalp.
- Suitable for All Hair Types: Works on fine, coarse, curly, coloured, and dry hair when used as directed.
- Sodium Chloride and Maris Sal (Sea Salt): dual salt exfoliants that physically lift product buildup, sebum, and dead skin cells from the scalp
- Regenerative Organic Certified™ Buckwheat Extract: sourced from Mr. Michele Aina's farm in Romentino, Italy : polysaccharides lock in moisture while antioxidants shield against environmental damage
- Sodium Cocoyl Isethionate + Sodium Lauroyl Methyl Isethionate: gentle amino-acid surfactants that cleanse without stripping natural oils
- Patchouli + Bitter Orange Peel Oil: signature SOLU fragrance with citrus, spice, delicate florals, and warm musk
- Vegan, 93.2% Naturally Derived, 99.9% Biodegradable, Recyclable Jar: B Corp certified Davines packaging
- 1. Soak the Hair Thoroughly: Salt crystals dissolve and lather best when the hair and scalp are fully saturated with warm water.
- 2. Scoop a Generous Amount: Take 1 to 2 tablespoons depending on hair length. The dense, grainy texture should feel substantial in your palm.
- 3. Apply Directly to the Scalp: Section the hair and apply the scrub at the roots, not the lengths. The salt is for the scalp; the lather will handle the rest of the hair.
- 4. Massage to Build Lather: Use fingertips (not nails) in circular motions for 2 to 3 minutes. Add water gradually to transform the grainy texture into a creamy foam.
- 5. Rinse and Condition: Rinse thoroughly until water runs clear. Always follow with a nourishing conditioner or mask : the deep cleanse benefits from a hydration follow-up.
- 6. Pro Tip: Use SOLU every second or third wash, not every wash : think of it as the deep clean you do once a week, not your daily shampoo. For hair that lives in urban or smoky environments (Calgary winter inversions and wildfire-season air are textbook cases), once every 5 to 7 days is the sweet spot. Always condition afterward, even if you usually skip conditioner : the exfoliation slightly opens the cuticle and makes it more receptive to moisturising ingredients.
What is SOLU Sea Salt Scrub used for?
SOLU Sea Salt Scrub by Davines is an in-shower scalp exfoliator and clarifying treatment that uses fine sea salt crystals to physically lift product buildup, sebum, and dead skin cells from the scalp. It's also a clinically tested anti-pollution treatment : ex vivo testing showed it effectively washes away nickel, cadmium, and lead deposits left by urban air pollution. The amino-acid surfactant system cleanses gently, while Regenerative Organic Certified buckwheat extract shields the hair from dryness. Use in place of regular shampoo every second or third wash.
Will SOLU Sea Salt Scrub dry out or strip my hair?
Not when used correctly. Unlike harsh clarifying shampoos built on aggressive sulfate surfactants, the Davines SOLU formula uses gentle amino-acid based cleansers (Sodium Cocoyl Isethionate and Sodium Lauroyl Methyl Isethionate) that clear buildup without stripping the scalp's natural moisture barrier. Glycerin and jojoba esters keep the hair conditioned during cleansing, and Regenerative Organic Certified buckwheat extract locks in moisture afterwards. Always follow with a nourishing conditioner or mask to seal the cuticle and lock in hydration.
How often should I use SOLU Sea Salt Scrub?
Use SOLU Sea Salt Scrub every second or third wash, alternating with your regular shampoo. The Davines deep-cleansing formula is engineered for periodic clarifying use, not daily cleansing : overusing it (or using it as a daily shampoo) would defeat the purpose by clearing too much of the scalp's natural oils. For most people, this works out to once or twice a week. Hair that's exposed to heavy urban pollution, heat styling, or high product buildup benefits from the higher end of that range.
Heavy-metal hair detox. Literally.
SOLU Sea Salt Scrub is a clinically tested anti-pollution treatment disguised as an exfoliating scalp scrub. Fine sea salt crystals (Sodium Chloride plus Maris Sal) physically lift product buildup and dead skin cells from the scalp, while a gentle amino-acid surfactant system cleanses the hair without stripping it. The hero is Regenerative Organic Certified™ buckwheat extract from Mr. Michele Aina's farm in Romentino, Italy : polysaccharides lock in moisture, antioxidants shield against environmental damage.
The clinical proof: ex vivo testing showed SOLU effectively washes away nickel, cadmium, and lead deposits left by urban pollution. Use every second or third wash in place of regular shampoo. Texture is dense and grainy, transforming into a creamy lather. Fragrance is citrus and spice over delicate florals and warm musk. Vegan, 93.2% naturally derived, 99.9% biodegradable. Made in Italy.
