A scalp reset is a simple way to clear surface buildup before your next style. It gives each product one clear job: wash away buildup, freshen after cleansing, then add light moisture.
Why protective-style wearers may need a reset
Gel, edge control, oil, sweat, lint, and other products can collect near the roots. Braids, wigs, locs, and sew-ins can also make the scalp harder to reach.
A reset does not treat a scalp condition. It is a cosmetic care routine for removing surface residue and preparing a clean base.
The three ToxiTress™ steps
- EXTRACT™ — Reset: Helps wash away buildup and extra oil. Rinse it out well.
- RESTORE™ — Balance: Helps freshen the scalp after cleansing.
- PURIFY™ — Treat: Adds a light moisture step after EXTRACT™ and RESTORE™.
When to use a reset
Use it when it fits your wash and styling needs. Follow each product label. Do not apply products to broken or badly irritated skin.
Keep the order simple
Clean first. Freshen second. Add moisture last. Putting more oil over old residue does not replace washing.
Learn why scalp oil alone will not remove buildup. You can also use the space between protective styles as a reset window.
