As hair professionals, we know that healthy hair starts at the scalp - but how often do we focus on scalp care during our client services? For years, conditioners have been all about lengths and ends, while the scalp has been left out of the conversation. That’s exactly why OLAPLEX Nº.0.5 Scalp Longevity Treatment is essential for salons.
What Makes Nº.0.5 Different?
This isn’t your average conditioner, it’s a scalp health essential that works at the root (literally) to set the foundation for stronger, healthier hair growth.
Nº.0.5 Scalp Longevity Treatment is designed to hydrate and protect both the scalp and the hair, making it ideal for professional use after colour, chemical treatments, or even clarifying shampoos.
Key Benefits for Salon Professionals:
- Scalp-first formula - Hydrates the scalp without clogging hair follicles or leaving residue.
- pH balanced for scalp health - Helps support the scalp’s natural barrier.
- Powered by OLAPLEX Bond Building Technology™ - Protects and repairs hair structure during services and is a bonus treatment with the bond maintenance range.
- Lightweight, salon-friendly - Rinses clean, suitable for all hair types.
- Ideal post-colour treatment - Soothes the scalp after chemical services, reducing dryness or irritation.
Why Scalp Care Matters Behind the Chair
More and more clients are becoming educated about hair health and that includes understanding that scalp health directly impacts hair quality, growth, and even colour longevity. Offering scalp-conscious products like Nº.0.5 elevates your service, positions you as a hair health expert, and helps drive retail opportunities when clients want to maintain that scalp-hair balance at home.
Here’s how to make Nº.0.5 a seamless part of your in-salon treatments:
- After shampooing (ideally with OLAPLEX Nº.4 or a professional cleanser), apply Nº.0.5 directly to the scalp first, then work through mid-lengths and ends.
- Leave for 3-5 minutes for maximum hydration and scalp comfort.
- Rinse thoroughly and style as usual.
Bonus: Use it post-colour to help rebalance the scalp after lightening or chemical processing, especially for sensitive clients.
Retail Opportunity: Scalp Care Aftercare
When clients experience how refreshing and soothing Nº.0.5 feels at the backwash, it’s an easy upsell for at-home care. Pair it with OLAPLEX Nº.4 shampoo and Nº.5 conditioner to keep their scalp and hair in peak condition between appointments.
With OLAPLEX Nº.0.5 Scalp Longevity Treatment, you’re not just conditioning hair; you’re supporting the entire hair growth cycle from the scalp down. That’s the kind of professional touch that keeps clients loyal — and keeps hair looking its absolute best. Shop now online or in your local Aston & Fincher store.
