Limits and precautions to take
Ingredients not suitable for the scalp
Most deodorants contain aluminum salts, alcohol, fragrances, or antiperspirants , which are not designed to be applied to the scalp. These ingredients can dry out, irritate, or cause itching .
A sticky effect or visible residue

Risk of follicle obstruction
