So impressed

Originally posted on influenster.com

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is an excellent pre-cleanse hair oil. I wondered if it would help with itchy scalp, or helping my hair to grow, or to keep my baby hairs strong. After a month of use, I can say that it does all 3. Smells divine, 98% natural ingredients, and fully recyclable packaging. Well worth adding to your haircare routine once a week.

Leaves my hair feeling clean

Originally posted on influenster.com

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I found this product did work to clear my scalp and made my hair feel clean. The packaging looks nice and of quality however the product did leak out of the applicator so I would be careful of eyes. Overall the product is good and does what it says.

My scalp has never felt better – Pure Genius is ex

Originally posted on influenster.com

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Hair by Sam McKnight Pure Genius has been a total game-changer for my scalp health. I’ve struggled with dryness and sensitivity for a while, and this product brought noticeable relief almost immediately. It’s soothing, nourishing, and somehow manages to deeply hydrate without leaving any residue or heaviness. What really sets it apart is how balanced my scalp feels – no more itchiness, flakiness, or irritation. It feels clean, calm, and healthy, which has made a huge difference in the overall look and feel of my hair too.

Good product

Originally posted on influenster.com

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Tried this product out after receiving it and was unaware of the brand completely so went into it with an unbiased approach’ . I applied this before having a shower ( a little goes a long way) and saturated my scalp completely and then massaged it in . It felt really relaxing and nice treatment for your scalp. After the shower I noticed the usual build up I get sometimes by the root to be gone as this product makes you spend more time washing your scalp

Hydrating and Refreshing

Originally posted on influenster.com

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm not really one to use scalp oils even though I need to use them. I have scalp psoriasis, and this oil was actually really nice to use. I like the fragrance it's refreshing. The oil leaves my scalp hydrated, and it washes out perfectly. I would consider purchasing this when mine runs out.

Great oil

Originally posted on influenster.com

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely love this hair oil. It's easy to use, and you only need a few drops. Because I have oily hair, I use it before I wash my hair as it does leave it a bit oily. I've noticed my scalp is smoother since using this oil. The packaging is simple but beautiful.

Works and smells amazing

Originally posted on influenster.com

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This brand was new to me so it was interesting to see how this turned out. The packaging is biodegradable but still looks professional. When you open the bottle, the first thing you notice is the smell. It's amazing! Very natural, does not smell synthetic at all. Not surprising when it's formulated with 98% natural ingredients, including chamomile flower oil, lavender and cedarwood. Easy to apply and really helped my dry scalp. Only a few drops are needed, so the bottle lasts some time. Will be buying more.

Good scalp restoring oil

Originally posted on influenster.com

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this product from Influenster in exchange for my honest review. The packaging is simple and recyclable. Contains 15 natural oils. It’s easy to apply. Before washing your hair apply a few drops and massage it into your scalp, leave for 10 mins then wash your hair normally. It doesn’t leave your hair greasy and has a pleasant botanical scent. After couple of weeks using it didn’t notice significant improvement, but will continue to use, so hope will get some benefits. Also this oil is a little bit pricey, but you need just a few drops, so it will last a long time.

Good product

Originally posted on influenster.com

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been using the Pure Genius Natural Scalp Restoring Oil for a few months now, and there’s a lot to love about it—along with one downside to keep in mind. First, the good: this oil is made with 98% natural ingredients and enriched with three powerhouse oils that truly deliver on their promise. It leaves my scalp feeling soothed, nourished, and balanced after every use. I especially appreciate the natural fragrance —it’s subtle, clean, and genuinely beautiful to me. However, as much as I enjoy the benefits to my scalp, I have to be honest about the tradeoff. The oil is quite heavy and tends to leave my hair greasy, even after shampooing two or three times. It’s tough to rinse out completely, which makes it less ideal for frequent use. Because of this, I’ve started using it only every third wash to avoid buildup. Overall, it’s a fantastic treatment if you're looking for scalp restoration and don’t mind adjusting your routine a bit to work around the heaviness.
