The Moda Team Review: The Foundation of Every Thinning Hair Routine We Build
The ENERGIZING Shampoo is Davines' bestselling Naturaltech product — and for good reason. It's the anchor of the entire ENERGIZING routine, designed to be used consistently on a protocol rather than casually. When clients come to us with hair that's thinning, shedding more than usual, or feeling progressively finer over time, this is the first product we put in their hands. The formula cleanses gently without stripping the scalp, and the Caffeine and Peppermint Oil combination gives a noticeable stimulating sensation at the scalp that clients respond well to — they can feel it working.
Davines specifies a clear usage protocol: every other day for the first month (intensive phase), then twice per week for two months in maintenance, alternating with the RENEWING Shampoo. That rotation matters — it keeps the scalp from acclimating to the formula and ensures the actives maintain their effect. The scent is distinctly balsamic and spicy — peppermint and eucalyptus up front, cinnamon and ginger in the base — which makes it feel like a treatment rather than a generic shampoo. The lather is excellent and rinses clean.
Key Active Ingredient
Caffeine — A proven scalp-stimulating active that penetrates the hair follicle to counteract DHT-related inhibition and support follicle vitality. Davines pairs it with Peppermint Oil (vasodilating, microcirculation-stimulating), Niacinamide (scalp-balancing, anti-inflammatory), and Epigallocatechin Gallatyl Glucoside from green tea (antioxidant protective) to build a multi-mechanism approach to scalp health across every wash.
Moda Pro Tip
Leave it on for the full 2–3 minutes before rinsing — this isn't a lather-and-rinse shampoo. The contact time is when Caffeine and Peppermint Oil are doing their work on the scalp. Clients who rush the rinse get a fraction of the benefit. Make sure they know this before they leave the chair.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Davines Naturaltech ENERGIZING Shampoo designed to treat?
It's designed for fragile, fine, or thinning hair prone to falling out. It stimulates and revitalizes the scalp while gently cleansing, supporting the hair follicles as part of the full ENERGIZING treatment routine.
How often should I use the Davines ENERGIZING Shampoo?
Davines recommends every other day during the intensive phase (first month), then twice weekly during the maintenance phase (two months), alternating with the RENEWING Shampoo. Following the protocol gives the best results.
What does Caffeine do in the Davines Naturaltech ENERGIZING Shampoo?
Caffeine penetrates the hair follicle and helps counteract the hormonal factors that inhibit follicle activity and contribute to hair thinning. It works alongside Peppermint Oil and Niacinamide to stimulate scalp circulation and support a healthy follicle environment.
Can I use the Davines ENERGIZING Shampoo on colour-treated hair?
Yes. The formula is sulphate-free and gentle on the hair structure, making it compatible with colour-treated hair. It's a scalp-focused treatment shampoo, so colour integrity is not compromised.
Should I use other ENERGIZING products alongside the Davines ENERGIZING Shampoo?
Yes. The shampoo is the foundation — Davines pairs it with the ENERGIZING Gel, Superactive, Thickening Tonic, or Seasonal Superactive depending on the specific type of hair loss or thinning being addressed. The shampoo alone is a good start; a full routine gives better results.
