This Scalp Shampoo Saved Jennifer Aniston’s Hair After She Got Doused in Oil

Healthy hair isn’t only in your strands, it’s about your scalp health, too. In an interview with InStyle, Jennifer Aniston—yes, that Jennifer Aniston, the actress from too many shows and movies to count—explains that she used to view a scalp scrub as just an extra step. But her outlook changed when someone broke it down to her like skincare.

“You do a scrub on your face once a week. You exfoliate your skin because, over the course of a week—with lotions, potions and makeup—you build up a residue, and your pores get clogged. So think of that same exact thing happening on your scalp,” Aniston says. “Our follicles get clogged with all the shampoos, conditioners, leave-ins, sprays and styling, especially for someone who works in my industry, where you’re being styled on a daily basis.”

The best product for keeping a healthy scalp? Aniston added one to her haircare brand, LolaVie, just for that purpose: the Exfoliate & Detox Scalp Shampoo. It aims to remove buildup and nourish the scalp, all while boosting volume and shine. Prepare to add this scalp shampoo to your weekly routine.

What is LolaVie Exfoliate & Detox Scalp Shampoo?

Launched on August 19, the LolaVie Exfoliate & Detox Scalp Shampoo works to remove greasy buildup, nourish and balance the scalp, soothe irritation, reduce flaking and boost volume and shine.

This scalp shampoo is filled with activated charcoal powder, which deep cleans impurities on the scalp; alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs), which unblock and cleanse pores; B-Pro3 Bond Technology, which protect and repair signs of aging and damage and other benefit-packed ingredients. This cruelty-free formula is made without silicones, sulfates (SLS/SLES), parabens, gluten or phthalates.

In a pre-clinical study with nine subjects, this scalp shampoo reduced scalp flaking after just one use. It also increased scalp hydration by up to 157% after just one use. This all relates back to healthy hair, because a hydrated scalp is an optimal environment for hair follicles to promote healthy hair growth.

In fact, Aniston used this scalp shampoo after she got doused in oil when filming The Morning Show this past July. “It was 98,000 degrees outside, and humidity was at an all-time high. You’re with 400 extras, and you’re all sardines in the street. It was just, ‘Ah!’ I scrubbed top to bottom that day!” Aniston tells InStyle. “You have no idea how much I detoxed my scalp after that.”

Thoroughly wet your hair, then section it out using the LolaVie Exfoliate & Detox Scalp Shampoo nozzle as a guide and apply the scalp shampoo. The brand advises “vigorously massaging” the product into your roots, causing a lather. Once done, rinse out the scalp shampoo, and that’s it! There’s no waiting around for it to do its thing.

LolaVie recommends using the scalp shampoo once a week. The brand also advises following the scalp shampoo with LolaVie’s Intensive Repair Treatment or Restorative Conditioner.

“The Exfoliate and Detox Scalp Shampoo brings my hair back to life—with ingredients like activated charcoal and AHAs, I think of it like skincare, but for my scalp. Plus, it leaves my hair looking so shiny and bouncy! It really is true that beautiful hair starts with a healthy scalp,” Aniston says in an Instagram caption.
