TXTR by Cantu Scalp Saver 5 oz / 150 ml - For Dry, Itchy Scalp & Hair Growth
TXTR is the newer, lighter side of Cantu, and Scalp Saver is the one aimed at the roots rather than the lengths. It has a serum texture, so it goes on without leaving the scalp greasy and without flattening hair at the root, which is the usual trade-off with scalp oils.
Rosemary oil and burdock root oil make up the core of it, with shea butter for moisture and vitamins D and K in the blend. On a dry, tight scalp it leaves things feeling more comfortable and properly conditioned rather than coated, and hair at the root picks up some shine as a result.
5 oz / 150 ml. Use it between washes, straight onto the scalp, and massage it in with your fingertips. Best suited to 2a through 3b hair, particularly if your scalp goes dry in winter or after a run of tight styles.

Application tips
The nozzle is there to be used. Run it along a parting so the serum lands on skin rather than on hair, then make another parting a finger's width along and repeat, three or four rows across the head. Press it in with the pads of the fingers for a minute.
Evening is the better slot, since it has hours to settle before you style. On wash day, use it after drying, not before.
Results
The tightness that shows up a few days after a wash, or after a stretch of braids, eases off. Skin feels conditioned rather than sealed under a film, and no slick transfers to the pillowcase. Roots take on a quiet gloss while keeping their lift. It sinks in fast enough to use in the morning if the evening gets away from you.
