A Two-Step Ritual That Turns Your Shower Into Scalp Therapy

Shampoos promise thickness, conditioners promise shine, yet most deliver only a silicone coat that mimics health until the next wash. The Vital Elements DHT-Blocking Shampoo and Thickening Conditioner treat the scalp first, because follicles—not fibre—decide how much hair you keep.

Why Washing Is the Most Overlooked Growth Window

A minute under warm water opens follicles like miniature pores. Whatever touches the scalp then—good or bad—sinks deeper than any leave-in. Sulfates, synthetic fragrance, even “clean” caffeine rinses can inflame or simply do nothing. The Vital Elements duo uses that open-scalp moment to block dihydrotestosterone (DHT), soothe irritation, and feed each strand with omega lipids that survive the rinse.

“Hair thickening starts at the follicle mouth. A shampoo that ignores DHT is just an expensive cleanser.” — Dr. Elena Huerta, Trichologist

Ingredient Synergy Inside Each Bottle

The shampoo deposits saw palmetto to slow 5-α-reductase and tame DHT. Hemp phytonutrients follow, calming redness often misread as dandruff. The conditioner leaves a feather-light film of those actives, then seals damaged cuticles with argan and sea-buckthorn oils, both rich in omega-7. No silicones, no waxes, no residue weighing down fine strands.

How to Use the Duo for Maximum Return

Lather with intention. Work the shampoo into your scalp for sixty seconds—fingertip pressure boosts circulation, carrying saw palmetto deeper.

Condition from tip to root. Glide conditioner through mid-lengths, then tap it onto the scalp and leave for two minutes before a cool rinse. The lingering botanicals keep blocking DHT between washes.

Use it three times a week. Consistency beats gimmicks. Pair with the Vital Elements serum and capsules for 24-hour coverage if you’re fighting active thinning.

The Timeline You Can Expect

Week 2: itch and flake calm as inflammation subsides.
Week 6: fewer strands in the drain; roots feel denser.
Week 12: visibly thicker mids and ends; breakage drops as cuticles stay sealed.
