Why we like it
The Moda Team Review
Shampoo cleans the surface. Head Start clears the buildup underneath it. Clients who add this once a week report a noticeably cleaner-feeling scalp, less root oiliness between washes, and a significant reduction in flaking and itchiness that regular shampooing was not touching.

Reviews
Questions? We get them.
Good to know.
The questions we hear most about this product. If yours isn’t here, a real stylist will answer.
Ask ModaHow often should I use Head Start Scalp Exfoliator?
Most clients should start with once a week. Use it as a reset when the scalp feels coated, flaky or congested.
Do I use it before shampoo?
Yes. Use it on wet hair at the scalp, massage gently, rinse well, then shampoo.
Is it okay for sensitive scalps?
Keep the pressure gentle and do not overuse it. If your scalp is irritated or broken, wait until it calms before exfoliating.
Will it remove dry shampoo buildup?
That is one of the reasons we like it. It helps refresh roots that feel loaded with product or oil.
What should I use after it?
Pair with Common Ground Scalp Shampoo, then use Home Base Scalp Serum if you need scalp comfort after cleansing.
