BOTANICAL CARE, AT THE ROOT

Care starts at the root.

PUMPKIN SEED OIL + SAW PALMETTO

A botanical approach
to the roots.

DHT and the hair follicle

DHT is involved in pattern hair loss and can contribute to follicle shrinkage. Pumpkin seed oil and saw palmetto have been studied for their relationship with DHT activity.

Follica brings these ingredients together in a leave-on scalp-care ritual.

CAFFEINE + ROSEMARY

Nourishment

How the root is nourished

Blood vessels around the follicle carry oxygen and nutrients. The moving particles illustrate this process beneath the scalp.

Caffeine and rosemary complete the four featured ingredients in Follica.

Every routinehas a story.

The scent. The scalp feel. The little moments that make a routine your own.

Jamie NThe scent won me over.
★★★★★

I loved the smell, but how good Follica felt on my scalp really stood out. In the first two to three months, I noticed little hairs beginning to appear. Around six months, I could see more hair coming in.

BeforeAfter
Aliyah OSmall beginnings. A little patience.
★★★★★

Follica felt so good on my scalp, and I loved its scent. The first thing I noticed was small hairs during months two and three. By the six-month mark, the growth was more noticeable. I was really happy with the experience.

BeforeAfter
Willow ZA ritual I kept coming back to.
★★★★★

The scalp feel and the smell made this a lovely part of my routine. I began noticing small hairs in the first two to three months. At around six months, I was seeing more hair coming through.

A FEW THINGS YOU MIGHT BE WONDERING

Good questions.Honest answers.

Scalp care for Black women, explained.

What is Follica?

Follica is a 50 mL leave-on botanical scalp serum formulated for Black women. Pumpkin seed oil, saw palmetto, caffeine, and rosemary anchor a simple routine that puts your scalp first.

Can I use it with braids, twists, or locs?

Part gently to reach the scalp, and apply the serum between sections rather than coating your style. Keep the scalp accessible and avoid adding tension. Follow the product directions and your stylist’s guidance.

Can I use Follica under a wig or weave?

Apply directly to an accessible scalp and allow it to dry before covering. Avoid broken or irritated skin, and keep the serum away from wig adhesives. A protective style should feel comfortable, never painful.

Can I use it on my edges?

Apply carefully to the scalp around the hairline without pulling or rubbing aggressively. Follica is scalp care, not a treatment for traction alopecia or scarring hair loss. Persistent thinning, tenderness, burning, or bald patches deserve a dermatologist’s assessment.

Does it work with natural or relaxed hair?

The routine focuses on your scalp and can fit alongside natural, braided, loc’d, or relaxed styles. Patch test first. Wait if the scalp is irritated after a chemical service, and ask your stylist or dermatologist about combining products.

Will it regrow my hair or treat CCCA?

Follica is a cosmetic scalp serum. It does not treat CCCA, traction alopecia, or other hair-loss conditions, and regrowth is not guaranteed. A dermatologist can identify the cause of hair loss and discuss suitable treatment.

How do I fit it around wash day?

Use on a clean, accessible scalp according to the product directions. Part, apply, and gently massage with fingertips. It is a leave-on step; it does not replace cleansing or conditioning.

Is it fragrance-free?

There is no added synthetic fragrance. Rosemary gives the formula its natural herbal aroma. Botanicals can still cause sensitivity, so patch test before first use.

When should I expect results?

Scalp comfort and cosmetic appearance vary from person to person. Some customer feedback described small hairs in months two and three and more noticeable growth around six months. These are individual experiences, not a promised timeline.

Can I stop or cancel my refills?

Yes. Auto Refill renews every 1, 2, or 6 months, according to the supply you select. Cancel before your next renewal through your subscription management link or contact support. One-time purchases do not renew.

How do shipping and refunds work?

US shipping is $6.99 for a 1-month supply and included with 2- and 6-month supplies. Your delivery estimate is shown before payment. Our 30-day guarantee starts when your first order arrives; contact support for a refund.
