    liquid product designed to improve hair and scalp health

    Hair tonic, also known as hair lotion or scalp tonic, is a liquid product designed to improve the health and appearance of hair and scalp. It typically contains ingredients like oils, vitamins, and herbal extracts that aim to moisturize the scalp, reduce dandruff, and promote hair growth. Hair tonics can be applied directly to the scalp and massaged in to stimulate blood circulation, which may enhance nutrient delivery to hair follicles.
