Healthy Hair Starts at the Root
If you're dealing with dry scalp, hair thinning, or breakage, your hair routine may be missing a simple but powerful tool: the scalp brush. Designed to deeply cleanse and stimulate the scalp, these brushes have become a go-to for anyone wanting to promote healthy hair growth, reduce buildup, and improve the effectiveness of hair treatments.
But do scalp brushes actually work? Let’s break it down!

What Is a Scalp Brush — and Why Should You Use One?
A scalp brush is a handheld tool with soft silicone bristles, used to massage your scalp either in the shower or on dry hair. Regular use of a scalp brush can help:
-
🧠 Boost blood circulation to hair follicles
-
🧼 Exfoliate dead skin and product buildup
-
🌱 Encourage stronger, thicker hair growth
-
💆♀️ Relieve stress and scalp tension
-
✨ Distribute natural oils, adding softness and shine
Whether you're battling dandruff, an itchy scalp, or just want fuller hair, a scalp brush is a low-cost, high-impact tool that delivers visible results.
Pairing It With a Hair Treatment: The Power Combo
To get the most out of your scalp care, pair your brush with a deep conditioning treatment like the OVEV Wellness Oceanic Renewal Hair Masque. This powerhouse formula is rich in clean, restorative ingredients that:
-
💧 Hydrate and repair dry, damaged strands

Together, a scalp brush + our signature hair mask create the perfect ritual to restore shine, strength, and thickness — especially for chemically treated or thinning hair.
How to Use a Scalp Brush with the OVEV Hair Masque
Step-by-Step Routine:

Apply the Hair Masque generously to damp, clean hair, focusing on mid-lengths to ends.

Use your OVEV scalp brush in circular motions to massage your scalp for 2–3 minutes.

FAQs: Do Scalp Brushes Work?
Q: Do scalp brushes really help hair grow?
A: Yes — by stimulating blood flow to the scalp, scalp brushes help deliver oxygen and nutrients to hair follicles, which can support healthy hair growth over time.
Q: Can a scalp brush remove dandruff or buildup?
A: Absolutely. A scalp brush gently exfoliates dead skin cells and helps clear away leftover product, which can reduce flaking and itchiness.
Q: How often should I use a scalp brush?
A: For most people, using it 2–3 times per week during shampooing or treatment application is ideal.
Q: Can I use a scalp brush on wet and dry hair?
A: Yes — use it in the shower during your hair treatment routine, or on dry hair for a relaxing massage and oil distribution. Don't be concerned if your scalp is mega oily the next day, your scalp needs time to detox and release natural oils.
