Scalp to Split Ends: Hair Care Demystified - Lab 101

Zakiya and Titi chat with Dr. Cicely Shillingford from Amika to break down the real science behind hair care. From personal hair wins (and fails) to the latest product innovations, they’re getting to the root of what it means to have “healthy hair.”

What’s discussed:

  • What’s actually happening on your scalp and with your hair at a microscopic level
  • The truth about popular ingredients and buzzwords (sulfate-free, ceramides, dry shampoo & more)
  • Cool new trends in hair care, like sustainable ingredients and innovative hair tech

Dope Labs is where science meets pop culture. Because science is in everything and it’s for everybody.
