What is the Density & Repair Scalp Serum?

The rhute Density & Repair Scalp Serum contains 16 clinically proven active ingredients, including peptides to strengthen hair, caffeine to stimulate follicles, niacinamide to support the scalp barrier, salicylic acid to gently exfoliate, hyaluronic acid for hydration, and plant stem cell extracts to encourage renewal. Together, these ingredients help improve hair density, reduce shedding, balance natural oils, and keep the scalp healthy and hydrated.

What makes the Density & Repair different from other scalp serums?

Most products only target one issue. Meaning you have to spend more money on multiple products to ensure your hair gets the attention it deserves. rhute’s formula addresses density, shedding, the scalp barrier, and hydration all at once - so you get more for less.

Check out a breakdown of our ingredients and their benefits below:

  • Peptides – Support stronger, thicker-looking hair by boosting protein structure.
  • Stem Cell Extracts – Stimulates cologen around the base of hair follicle, reducing shedding.
  • Caffeine – Helps reduce shedding and energises follicles for growth support.
  • Saw Palmetto – Blocks DHT, a hormone associated with hair thinning
  • Niacinamide – Strengthens the scalp barrier and helps regulate excess oil.
  • Salicylic Acid – Gently exfoliates to clear buildup and create a healthy base for growth.

How is the formula developed?

It was created by Consultant Dermatologist Dr. Aamna Adel, so every ingredient is intentional, effective, and safe for sensitive scalps.

Who is the density & repair serum for?

  • Women of all ages, including new mums and perimenopausal women 
  • People who wear braids and extensions

Can I use it with other products?

Yes! rhute’s Density + Repair Serum was designed to tackle a number of concerns while still being lightweight and easy to layer with the rest of your haircare routine. It won’t interfere with your regular styling products, and with its 16 active ingredients that support your hair health and growth throughout the hair cycle, rhute cuts the fuss — one formula, no time-consuming routine needed.

You can also use it in conjunction with minoxidil if you choose to. However, it shouldn’t be applied at the same time as other medicated or prescription scalp treatments unless advised by your healthcare professional.

How soon will I see results?

You may notice immediate relief in scalp comfort and hydration. For density and shedding, consistency is key. After:

  • 1 - 2 weeks: Scalp feels soothed. Less dry, itchy and flaky. 
  • 4 - 8 weeks: Hair follicles are stimulated and strengthened. 
  • 8 - 10 weeks: Follicles are fortified.
  • 12 - 16 weeks: Tighter parting, baby hairs that have grown out - and a thicker, fuller ponytail. 

Will it make my hair greasy?

No, we went through countless rounds of revisions to get the texture just right. A lightweight, fast-absorbing  formula comfortable enough for daily use. The formula was carefully balanced with ingredients like salicylic acid and niacinamide, which help regulate excess oil and reduce greasiness. That means you can apply it morning or night without worrying about buildup or disrupting your style.

Can I use it if I colour my hair?

Yes, the formula is safe for colour-treated and chemically processed hair. It’s designed to support scalp and hair health without stripping, drying, or interfering with treatments, making it suitable for all hair types and textures.

How long does one bottle last?

With daily use, one bottle lasts about 6 - 8 weeks.

Can I use the serum while pregnant or breastfeeding?

All of the ingredients in our formula are safe during pregnancy and breastfeeding. However, we always recommend checking with your own medical practitioner before using.

Is the density & repair scalp serum vegan?

Yes, the Density + Repair scalp serum is vegan and was not tested on any animals.
