Running a small business while raising a one-year-old… let’s just say my “self-care routine” doesn’t look like Pinterest. 🙃 Washing my hair once a week is a win. Twice? Forget it. After I had my baby, I lost so much hair it scared me. I started digging into what I could actually do for my scalp. That’s when it hit me: our toner isn’t just skincare. It’s scalp care, too.
And here’s the big idea: healthy hair starts at the scalp. The toner delivers hydration plus minerals and botanicals essential for a healthy scalp, setting the stage for balance. Then the serum layers in CBD and Vitamin C — designed to regulate oil, calm irritation, and support stronger-looking hair from root to tip.
Why the Scalp Matters (and How CBD Fits In)
Your skincare shouldn’t stop at your hairline — your scalp is your skin too. When it’s nourished and hydrated, you create a healthier environment for fuller-looking, stronger-feeling hair.
-
Balance: CBD supports skin homeostasis — It helps regulate oil on the scalp so there’s less buildup.
-
Calm: With its antioxidant and soothing properties, CBD may help reduce the look and feel of irritation and sensitivity.
-
Barrier support: A resilient scalp barrier holds hydration better, which can translate to happier follicles and smoother strands.
-
Anti-inflammatory support: CBD’s soothing nature may help comfort flare-prone scalp conditions such as dryness, flakes, or irritation often linked with eczema and psoriasis.
For those pregnant or nursing, CBD use is a deeply personal choice. Our founder shares her own experience in these posts:

Hydrate First. Seal Second. Here’s Why It Works.
Your scalp follows the same biology as your skin: water goes in first, oil locks it down. Without hydration, oils just sit on top. Without oil, hydration evaporates. Layering them in order isn’t optional — it’s how skin (and scalp) stays balanced.
Step 1 — Mist Toner (Water Phase)
After washing, while hair is still damp, drench your scalp and strands with lightweight hydration. Our alcohol-free toner is formulated with active ingredients proven to support scalp balance:
-
Niacinamide (B3): Helps balance oil and supports a strong, calm skin barrier.
-
Aloe + Rose Water: Lightweight hydration that won’t weigh hair down.
-
Trace Minerals + Zinc Ferment: Feed skin and may help keep the scalp environment balanced.
-
Botanicals (Calendula, Ginkgo, Passionflower, Honeysuckle, Pineapple): Soothing, antioxidant-rich plant allies.
🌿 Award-Winning: Our Toner has been recognized by the 2025 EarthDay Beauty Awards, the Universal Beauty Awards, and the 2024 Clean Beauty Awards for its clean, effective formulation.
Why it matters: Applying toner to damp hair allows minerals and botanicals to penetrate more effectively, priming the scalp so the serum can absorb instead of sitting on top. This is how you get shine without the grease.
Step 2 — Apply Vitamin C + CBD Serum (Oil Phase)
Immediately after toner, smooth a few drops of serum from scalp to ends (adjust by hair type). Our serum delivers concentrated nutrients your scalp and strands can’t get from water alone:
-
Jojoba & Argan: Lightweight oils that mimic natural sebum for moisture without heaviness.
-
Sea Buckthorn, Rosehip, Raspberry Seed: Omega-rich oils that restore elasticity and tame frizz.
-
Stabilized Vitamin C + Vitamin E: Antioxidants that protect against environmental stressors.
-
CBD: Supports balance — regulating oil, calming irritation, and helping the scalp hold onto hydration.
Why it matters: Sealing hydration immediately locks in moisture, smooths frizz, and delivers CBD + Vitamin C right where your scalp needs it most. This is how you turn hydration into long-lasting strength and shine.
Vitamin C’s Quiet Superpower for Scalp + Hair
-
For the Scalp: Vitamin C supports collagen synthesis (hello, strong-feeling follicle environment), offers antioxidant protection from UV/pollution, and may support mineral absorption (like iron) — all of which help maintain a healthy scalp.
-
For the Hair: Helps defend the hair shaft from environmental stress, reduces dullness, and can gently clarify hard-water buildup for softer, more manageable strands.
We use a stable, oil-soluble form of Vitamin C in the serum for lasting protection — supported by niacinamide and trace minerals in the toner to keep the scalp balanced and skin-friendly.
Here’s the Difference You Can Expect
-
Softer, shinier strands from nourishment that actually absorbs.
-
Balanced, soothed scalp courtesy of niacinamide, aloe, botanicals, minerals, and CBD.
-
Lightweight finish — that toner “thins” the oils so they spread without grease.
-
Fresh, herbal-floral scent from rose, calendula, and our wild-harvested botanicals.
Layering by Hair + Scalp Type
Fine / Flat Hair
✔️ Focus toner on scalp + roots. Hydration where it matters, without weighing hair down.
✔️ A few drops of serum only on ends for shine.
✅ Result: Lift at the roots + lightweight smoothness.
Oily Scalp
✔️ Focus toner on scalp + roots. Balances sebum production, calms buildup at the source.
✔️ Massage 1–2 drops of serum directly into scalp to let CBD regulate sebum. Apply a small amount through mid to ends for frizz control.
✅ Result: Fresh scalp + healthy-looking lengths.
Sensitive / Itchy Scalp
✔️ Toner generously on scalp. Soothing botanicals calm irritation and balance without overload.
✔️ Massage a few drops of serum into scalp for soothing CBD + herbs. Apply a small amount on ends if needed for frizz control.
✅ Result: Comforted scalp, reduced irritation.
Thick / Coarse / Curly Hair
✔️ Toner on scalp and mist throughout hair if desired. Helps distribute oils evenly, softens strands, and preps curls for serum.
✔️ 1–2 pumps of serum worked through hair.
✅ Result: Deep moisture, frizz control, defined curls.
Dry / Damaged / Color-Treated Hair
✔️ Toner generously on scalp — optional on lengths for brittle or frizz-prone hair. Restores scalp health and, when used on lengths, supports softness, shine, and elasticity.
✔️ 1–2 pumps of serum focused on mid-lengths to ends.
✅ Result: Restored softness, shine, and elasticity.
Monthly Deep-Treatment Ritual (All Hair Types)
1–12 hours before washing (overnight is best):
✔️ Step 1: Mist Toner generously on scalp and hair. Hydrates deeply, delivers minerals, and softens strands. Opens the cuticle slightly so nutrients can sink in.
✔️ Step 2: Massage Vitamin C + CBD Serum into scalp, then brush through lengths. Locks in hydration, nourishes follicles, and infuses strands with antioxidants + fatty acids.
✅ Result: A scalp that feels balanced and refreshed, with strands that are softer, shinier, and stronger-looking by morning.
