Why pre-wash? −

Your scalp is skin. This goes on before you wash your hair, so by the time you shampoo, your scalp has already absorbed what it needs. Think of it as a shield that lets your shampoo do its job without stripping your hair of its natural moisture and strength.

A NOTE FROM OUR FOUNDER

Her formula, her knowledge, in this bottle.

Our grandmother, Maié, as we called her, grew up on the Konkani coast of Karnataka, India where prepping your scalp before washing is just part of how you care for your hair. Not a hack. Not a trend. Just something the women in her family had always done - with the plants that grew where they lived.

We didn't develop this in a lab. We grew up watching it work.

This is the way she cared for us. Now it's the way we care for you. The Maié Way.

Your questions, answered.

Some questions you might have or write to us. A real person replies.

Can I sleep in Scalp Primer? +
Yes but we don't recommend because a pre-wash hair product is best to leave on for 2–3 hours and wash it off.
Is it safe for colour-treated or chemically treated hair? +
Yes! It's sulphate-free, paraben-free and fragrance-free, and applied before your wash, so it works with colour-treated, keratin-treated and relaxed hair.
How often should I use it? +
Once before every wash, or at least once a week. Consistency is the ritual - most people notice the difference between weeks four and eight.
Why is it fragrance-free? What does it smell like? +
We add no synthetic fragrance - what you smell is the natural aroma of the botanicals themselves: earthy, herbal, gone after you rinse.
How long does one bottle last? +
Used weekly, one 50 ml bottle lasts about 6–8 weeks depending on hair length. Best within 24 months of opening.
How does the subscription work? +
Choose every 4 weeks, 6 weeks or 12 weeks. It auto-renews at the same price with $4.99 flat rate shipping, and you can skip, pause or cancel anytime - no hoops.
Will the herbal aroma in the Scalp Primer linger after hair wash? +
No, the herbal aroma of the botanicals in our Scalp Primer is gone after rinse. We add no synthetic fragrance to our blend.
