Every fall, without fail, my hairbrush starts telling on me. Seasonal shedding is real (and hair loss is so common that nearly 90 percent of NewBeauty readers say they\u2019re dealing with it), but knowing I\u2019m in good company doesn\u2019t make the strands in the shower drain any less annoying. So when Nutrafol Women\u2019s Hair Serum ($49) landed on my radar, a no-rinse scalp step from a brand I already associate with hair wellness felt like the right place to start. I\u2019ve been using it for about two weeks now, and so far, so good.<\/p>\n
Ahead, my first impressions.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
The Benefits of Nutrafol Women\u2019s Hair Serum<\/h2>\n
If you know Nutrafol, it\u2019s probably for its supplements, and the brand\u2019s move into Ulta Beauty put its hair-wellness lineup on even more radars. This serum takes that same approach straight to the scalp, and the routine is simple: Once a day, you apply a full dropper directly to the scalp, section by section, and gently massage it in. After two weeks, I\u2019ve found it lightweight and quick to absorb, and since there\u2019s no rinsing, it fits into my routine without adding a wash day. It also hasn\u2019t left my roots feeling greasy, which I appreciate.<\/p>\n
The key ingredients do the heavy lifting. Ashwagandha exosomes (if the buzzy ingredient is new to you, here\u2019s a breakdown on what exosomes actually are) are tiny carriers packed with proteins, RNA and lipids, designed to deliver nutrients directly to the scalp. Irish moss peptides support fuller-looking volume while pea sprout extract targets visibly thicker hair. Together, they work to reduce shedding, strengthen the scalp barrier and visibly cut down on breakage, all in a 100 percent drug-free formula that\u2019s certified microbiome-friendly.<\/p>\n
Like skin care, scalp care is a long game, and Nutrafol is upfront about that. In the brand\u2019s study, participants reported visibly thicker, fuller hair in 90 days with once-daily use. At $49 for a 1-ounce bottle, it\u2019s an accessible way to give your scalp the same consistency you already give your face. Two weeks in, it\u2019s easy enough to keep up with that I plan to stick with it through the 90-day mark.<\/p>\n Nutrafol Women\u2019s Hair Serum<\/strong><\/p>\n BUY NOW – $49<\/p>\n So far, my first impression of Nutrafol Women\u2019s Hair Serum is a good one. It\u2019s lightweight, easy to use and simple to keep up with daily. If I check back in three months with luscious, thicker locks, you\u2019ll be the first to know. For now, time will tell.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/cdn.sanity.io\/images\/0vv8moc6\/newbeauty\/52886845d40b14607cdff4122affd235259d9a4d-1080x1080.png?w=1200&auto=format&q=70\")
