Why It Matters

Healthy hair starts with a healthy scalp

Each follicle relies on the scalp’s circulation and nutrient flow. Inspired by meridian scalp massage, this ritual is designed to encourage microcirculation, support follicle health, and release the tension that gathers at the temples, crown, and nape.

Move slowly through each in turn. Use light to medium pressure.

Trichologist Tip

Use light to medium pressure, enough to gently move the scalp tissue, not scratch the surface. The goal is circulation and release, never friction.

Care

Wipe clean with a soft, dry cloth after use. Do not submerge in water. Store in the included dust bag in a dry place away from direct sunlight to help preserve the wood and its natural fragrance.

Caution

Avoid use on broken, irritated, inflamed, or sunburned skin. Discontinue use if discomfort occurs.

Complete the Ritual
