How Using a Scalp Massager Can Elevate Your Whole Hair Care Routine
August 02 2023
We’ll let you in on two little secrets. 1. Maintaining a healthy scalp is one of the best ways to achieve gorgeous hair texture. 2. You can ensure a luscious mane by incorporating a scalp massager into your routine. Read on to discover the benefits of using a scalp massager and how to properly add it to your next shower sesh.
What are the Benefits of Using a Scalp Massager?
If you’ve ever experienced a scalp massage at the salon, you can attest that it feels sensational and releases tension. On top of feeling great, there are other key benefits that can improve the state of your hair structure. Let’s explore them below:
1. Encourages hair growth & thickness like never before
Consistent use helps stimulate blood flow to your scalp. Doing this helps create a proper scalp microbiome (or a healthy scalp environment) that enables new hair cells to come to the surface. The result? Longer, thicker hair texture.
2. Deeply cleanses, exfoliates & reduces build-up
When there is build-up from grease, debris, products, and dead skin cells, hair follicles can get blocked causing a potentially unhealthy scalp environment and slower hair growth. You can quickly tackle this problem with a scalp massager that exfoliates the skin and eliminates build-up blocking your strands and causing damaged hair.
3. Levels-up your locks with extra shine
Exfoliating and stimulating blood flow at your scalp helps promote hair strength and growth. By creating a healthy scalp environment, your hair will start to feel (and look) sleeker and shinier than ever before! Plus, Mounia’s scalp massager is purposefully designed with sturdy, yet gentle, silicone bristles that get in between thicker strands.
Don’t just take our word for it! Check out what the media is saying about the effectiveness of Mounia’s scalp massager thanks to its easy-to-grab design and gentle silicone bristles that reduce tangles and knots.

"This scalp massager has been amazing, not only for exfoliating and relieving build-up, but also for making my psoriasis-fighting products work more effectively."
Using Your Scalp Massager to the Fullest
Now that you know an effective treatment for your hair and scalp are within reach, it’s time to learn the right way to incorporate a scalp massager into your routine.
Step 1: Shower time. Apply your detox shampoo.
Wet your hair as you normally would before applying any product. After your hair is wet, simply apply your silicone-free shampoo as normal, paying extra attention to the root of your hair and working down to the ends.
Pro tip: Products like Mounia’s Shampoo & Hair Rinse feature clean ingredients like rhassoul clay and aloe vera that work alongside your massager to reduce build-up and prevent tangles.
Step 2: Suds up. Scrub & massage your scalp.
Next, gradually work the moisturizing shampoo into your hair by moving your scalp massager in gentle circular motions to reduce build-up. Plus, pairing your massage with Mounia’s silicone-free Shampoo & Hair Rinse helps unlock extra exfoliating and hydration benefits. Another great addition is the massager's easy-to-hold design that prevents it from slipping out of your soapy fingers!
Pro tip: Silicone bristles are ideal for those with sensitive scalps or finer hair textures! Silicone bristles are gentler and prevent breakage, knots, and tangles.
Step 3: Lock in the benefits with a moisturizing conditioner
After you’ve lathered to your liking, it’s time to wash out your detox shampoo. Afterwards, we recommend using a deep, silicone-free conditioner like Mounia’s Conditioner & Hair Mask packed with organic cumin and flaxseed oil to weightlessly hydrate dry strands.
Pro tip: Although the best results come from using your massager during shampooing, no one said you can’t use it when you condition or apply a hair mask. Either use it to massage your scalp for additional relaxation, or use it as a comb to run through your conditioned strands.
Pro tip #2: Did you know that you get a free scalp massager when you purchase Mounia’s Rinse & Condition Duo or Hair Care System? Now you can enjoy the benefits of a Mounia-level treatment in either of these great packages! When you opt for the entire Hair Care System, you’ll get to enjoy our silicone-free hair serum packed with natural, clean, and vegan ingredients that further seal in hydration and repair dry or damaged hair.
