How to Use
"Bayou BEAuties" often describe feeling:
- Relief from itch after first use or within days
- Fewer visible flakes
- A calmer, more predictable scalp
- Freedom to wear dark clothes, protective styles, or go longer between washes
Shake well. Apply sparingly directly to the scalp and massage until absorbed.
Use as a leave-in or rinse-out. Suitable for daily use.
A mild adjustment/purging period may occur as your scalp rebalances and flakes release and are removed for the clear journey ahead.
Scents
All scents are PHTHALATE-FREE
This is a working herbal formula, not a perfume — expect a noticeable herbal tingle on application that settles and fades as it absorbs. Choose your scent based on how you want that base to lean:
-
Natural – no added fragrance; you'll notice the herbal ingredients themselves, gently rounded out by vanilla extract & orange oil
-
Coconut – light, warm coconut layered over the herbal base
-
Renaissance – a vintage, powdery sweet scent reminiscent of a classic after-shave (masculine-friendly)
-
Praline – warm, sweet vanilla sugar
-
Magnolia – true to its floral namesake
If you're sensitive to strong scents, we'd recommend starting with Natural.
