Innersense Hair Renew Pre Wash Treatment
by Innersense · skin_care
Editor's Take
One of the few pre-washes that earns the extra shower step, with serious scalp support and none of the usual silicone sleight of hand.
Four-pillar formula scores
- Performance: 7.8 / 10
- Innovative Ingredients: 7.0 / 10
- Clean Standards: 9.8 / 10
- Formula Sustainability: 9.9 / 10
The Verdict
Oat bran extract, glycerin, honey, and Sodium Hyaluronate give the scalp a credible moisture buffer before shampooing. Sepitonic™ M3 adds magnesium, zinc, and copper, while bamboo ferment keeps the treatment technically current rather than merely botanical. The plant-forward, biodegradable base is a credible, though orange peel extract and fragrance allergens may not suit a reactive scalp. A strong pre-wash for dry or easily stripped scalps, not just another scented layer before shampoo.
