Not sure where to start your scalp care journey? We got you. Start here with the Straand Scalp Care Starter Kit. This starter kit allows you to take the 6 wash challenge before investing in upgrading your whole scalp care and hair care routine.  

What Does It Do? Balance your microbiome and fight dandruff with this easy wash day routine.

Helps To: 

  • Relieve Flakes & Irritation. 
  • Go Longer Between Washes. 
  • Restore Shine & Hydration.
  • Balance & Protect the Scalp. 

Made For: Suitable for most hair types including oily and sensitive scalps. If you suffer from Psoriasis, we recommend consulting with your dermatologist first.

How To Use

Step 1)

Wash with Crown Cleanse Shampoo, concentrating on the roots of your hair. Stimulate your follicles by gently working the shampoo into your scalp with your fingers. Leave for 2 mins if possible before rinsing.

Step 2)

Nourish thirsty strands with the Crown Boost Conditioning Treatment.

Step 3)

Apply the Serum directly to the scalp (wet or dry hair is fine!) by parting in segments. Stimulate your roots with a little wiggle - no need to rinse.

Key Ingredients

DEFENSCALP™

This mighty extract from rosebay is like the superhero of scalp care. It keeps flakes and oil at bay, while naturally balancing the scalp's ecosystem. Think of it as your personal scalp bodyguard – all protection, no side effects.

PANTHENOL (Vitamin B5)

Meet the hair MVP. It’s the one pulling water from thin air (literally!) to keep your hair hydrated and voluminous. Plus, it’s all about making your hair stronger and less prone to breakage. Breakage? Never heard of her.

PENTAVITIN

Pentavitin is the ultimate moisture magnet to your hair and scalp, for 72 hours straight. It’s the pro at giving your hair the hydration it needs to look and feel its smooth, soft, and perfectly balanced.

JOJOBA OIL

Talk about multitasking! This vitamin-rich oil does it all—nourishing, moisturizing, and protecting your hair from dryness and split ends. Your scalp? Totally spoiled.

HYDROLYZED WHEAT PROTEIN

Shiny, strong, and frizz-free? Yep, that’s the work of hydrolyzed wheat protein. It strengthens from the inside out while giving your hair the moisture boost it deserves. And let’s not forget, it leaves a protective barrier for daily defense.

POLYQUATERNIUM-10

This one’s all about volume, shine, and detangling power. Anti-static? Check. More bounce? Double check. Suppleness and sheen? You get the idea.

SWEET ALMOND OIL

Last but definitely not least, this sweet oil’s mission is to hydrate, soothe, and boost your hair’s resilience. Split ends and dryness, be gone!

What is a scalp microbiome?

Just as our gut has live bacteria — AKA ‘microbes’— so does our scalp. With its own unique ecosystem, the scalp is host to a range of microbes (from bacteria and fungi through to environmental toxins) that live on the scalp’s surface and feed on sebum (your hair’s natural oil). A balanced scalp microbiome is one where diverse bacteria work together as a team to strengthen the skin’s surface layer and create a habitat for follicles to thrive and roots to grow into healthy Straands.

How does Straand help my hair?

Treating the skin on your head as well as you treat the skin on your face, hair has a better chance at thriving by focusing on removing product build up, grime and balancing the biome. In tending to your hair through crown care, your scalp microbiome becomes a fertile ground for hair to thrive and grow, while renewing root hydration to give hair serious gloss.

What to Expect: Wash #1

  • Your scalp is getting a deep cleanse, removing product buildup, excess oil, and environmental grime.
  • Key ingredients like Defenscalp™ and jojoba oil are starting to balance the scalp microbiome.
  • The salicylic acid in the shampoo begins breaking down any scalp flakiness and scaliness.
  • You’ll feel that fresh, clean sensation as your scalp begins to breathe again.
  • What to Expect: Wash #2

  • Your scalp is adjusting, and the microbiome is starting to rebalance.
  • Less oil production, fewer flakes—your scalp feels healthier and less irritated.
  • Hydrating ingredients like squalane oil are now working to restore moisture and soothe the scalp for lasting comfort.
  • The pH balanced formulations help to close the hair's cuticle (outer layer of the hair), making it feel smooth and giving it shine, whilst giving the scalp the optimal pH for the beneficial microorganisms to thrive.
  • What to Expect: Wash #6

  • Your scalp’s microbiome is thriving, resulting in noticeably less dandruff and a healthier scalp.
  • Hair feels softer, more manageable, and stronger from root to tip.
  • The many antioxidant ingredients reduce inflammation and help the scalp to feel good for the long term.
  • You may notice that you’re able to go longer between washes as your scalp is no longer producing excess sebum.

      THANK YOU STRAAND!

      I have been loving using the Scalp Care Starter Kit the past from Straand. My scalp was previously very dry and itchy, and these products have really helped with this. My hair is left feeling super soft and healthy and the Starter Kit is such an easy 3 step hair care routine!

      I'm converted!

      I'm a fine hair girl who is typically addicted to my purple shampoo but was noticing that my hair was getting too oily between washes, and when I washed too often I was getting some minor flakes. After two weeks I was really seeing a difference from using this pack. I didn't notice anything at first, so it's important to keep persevering. I can now go 3-4 days between a wash now and my hair still looks fresh. So much less oil production and no more flakes! Will be upgrading to the full size for sure!
