The best scalp scrub in 2019: Christophe Robin, Ouai, Briogeo, & more

It's easy to forget that the skin on your scalp is actually skin, and it needs care, treatment, and exfoliation just like the rest of you. Just because it's harder to reach, being underneath hair and all, doesn't mean your scalp should be ignored.

In fact, scalps are prone to irritation due to product build-up, oil, dryness, and skin conditions such as dandruff. Unlike your face, scalp skin is usually a bit tougher and can handle heavier physical exfoliation. That's where scalp scrubs come in. Most scalp scrubs contain salt, sugar, or other fine particles that loosen and whisk away flakes of dry skin and product build-up.

Many of them also have hydrating oils to balance out the possible harshness from the scrubby bits. But over time, exfoliating the top of your head weekly can actually soothe your skin and keep your head and hair healthier between washes.

Scalp scrubs run the gamut from high-end to drugstore, and not all of them are equally effective for everyone. These five are the best ones on the market according to experts and shoppers.
