FAQ
GOOD QUESTIONS
What does Root Revive Peptide Hair Serum do?
It is a light scalp serum for thicker, fuller looking hair. It pairs five peptides, including sh-Polypeptide-1 and sh-Oligopeptide-10, with rosemary, saw palmetto and eucalyptus extracts. It is a cosmetic for the look and feel of your hair and scalp, not a medicine.
What is in the serum?
Five peptides, rosemary, eucalyptus, saw palmetto and Scutellaria baicalensis root extracts, arginine, and soybean and wheat germ extracts, in a water and glycerin base. The full list is printed on the bottle and explained on the ingredients page.
How do I use it?
Put a few drops directly on your scalp and massage them in with your fingertips for 1 to 2 minutes. Use it every day. The step by step guide has tips by hair type.
How long until I notice a difference?
Hair changes slowly, so give the serum steady daily use for a few months before you judge it. A photo of your part line in the same light every few weeks makes changes easier to see. Individual results vary.
Will it make my hair greasy?
No. It is water based, not an oil, and it soaks in fast, so it leaves no oily film in your hair. That makes it easy to use in the morning as well as at night.
Does it contain any allergens?
Yes. It contains soybean and wheat germ extracts, so skip it if you are allergic to either. It is for external use only. Avoid contact with your eyes, and stop using it if irritation occurs.
Is Root Revive Peptide Hair Serum good for thinning hair?
It is a cosmetic scalp serum made for the look of thicker, fuller hair, so people with fine or thinning looking hair use it for volume and fullness. It does not treat hair loss. If you are losing hair suddenly or in patches, see a dermatologist.
What do peptides do in a hair serum?
Peptides are short chains of amino acids. This serum uses five of them, including sh-Polypeptide-1 and sh-Oligopeptide-10, as cosmetic ingredients to support the look of thicker, more voluminous hair. They are paired with rosemary, saw palmetto and eucalyptus extracts.
Peptide serum or rosemary oil: which should I use?
Rosemary oil is an oil that sits on the scalp and in your hair. Root Revive Peptide Hair Serum has rosemary extract plus five peptides and saw palmetto in a water based formula, so it soaks in and leaves no oil behind. The one you will actually use every day is the right pick.
Can I use it with minoxidil or other hair products?
The serum is a cosmetic and contains no minoxidil. If you use a prescription or over the counter hair loss treatment, ask your doctor or pharmacist before adding anything new to your scalp routine. It can go on before your usual styling products once it has soaked in.
Is it for men or women?
Both. It is a unisex scalp serum. Apply a few drops along your parts and massage them in, whatever your hair length.
