Age-Defying series · Step 1

Dr Scalp Age-Defying Shampoo

The greys at your parting that you have started counting.

A dye appointment every four weeks, or a decision to stop bothering.

This is not a dye. It works at the follicle, which means it can only affect hair that has not grown yet. What is already grey stays grey.

A daily wash carrying GREYVERSE, the peptide the whole series is built on. Give it eight weeks, then keep going.

Is this the right one for you?

One problem per series. This is the Age-Defying series. If your main problem is something else, one of the other five will do more for you than this will.

Choose this if

  • You have started counting the greys at your parting
  • You are dyeing every four weeks and would rather not
  • Your hair has gone coarse and wiry as well as grey
  • You are prepared to judge this in months rather than weeks

Look elsewhere if

  • You want your whole head darker next month — that is a dye's job, not this one's.
  • Thinning or a widening parting, Growth
  • Flakes are the main problem, Anti-Dandruff
  • Colour fade, Colour Protect

This one is measured in months, not weeks.

Hair grows about a centimetre a month, so even a perfect result is a centimetre of root at week eight — real, but invisible in a bathroom mirror. That is why we measure it at the follicle instead. Come in for a trial treatment, $59, and the scan comes with it, so you start from a reading rather than a guess.

Why it works

It cannot change hair that has already grown.

A hair goes grey because the pigment cells at the base of the follicle stop putting melanin into the shaft as it forms. Once that shaft is out of your scalp it is finished, in the way a fingernail is finished. Nothing applied to the outside of it can put colour back, and anything claiming to is either a dye or lying to you.

So this works at the follicle instead. The active is Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-20 Amide, sold as GREYVERSE, an alpha-MSH biomimetic peptide from Lucas Meyer Cosmetics. It is twenty-third on the ingredient list in the buy panel above, so you can check it. Around it sit dong quai, chuan xiong, ginseng, thuja, He Shou Wu and ginger, a herbal group used across Asia for greying, sitting consecutively from position eleven to sixteen.

What it will not do. It will not turn your existing greys dark. It affects hair that has not grown yet, so any change appears at the root and travels down at about a centimetre a month. If you want your whole head darker next month, you want a dye, and we would rather say that than take $68 from you. Lucas Meyer publish clinical data on GREYVERSE. That is their study of their ingredient, not our study of this bottle, and until we have run our own we are not going to call this clinically proven.

What it actually does

Four jobs, and reversing your greys is not one of them.

Reversing the grey you already have is the most oversold claim in this category, and it is not one of the four below. Here is what is actually in the bottle and what it can actually reach.

01 · It is not a dye

Pigment-free, and nothing washes out

No colourant of any kind. Nothing on your pillow, no regrowth line — and no way to darken the greys you already have.

02 · The active is named and checkable

Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-20 Amide

The INCI name for GREYVERSE, twenty-third on the list in the buy panel. Lucas Meyer publish trial data on it; those are their numbers, not ours.

03 · Grey hair is drier hair

Sodium PCA, rice protein, allantoin

Grey hair is coarser and drier, and half of why it looks older is texture rather than colour. That half responds in weeks.

04 · It is honest about the timeline

Months, not weeks

Hair grows about a centimetre a month, so a re-pigmented root at week eight is a centimetre of root. We measure it at the follicle; a mirror takes far longer.

What to expect

Week by week, and the week that actually counts.

This is the slowest thing we sell, and we would rather set that expectation here than lose you at month two. The texture changes early. The colour, if it changes at all, changes at the root and takes months to become visible.

  1. Week 1–2The texture changes firstGrey hair is coarser and drier than pigmented hair. That part responds quickly, and it is the half of the problem you can feel rather than see.
  2. Week 3–6Nothing visible, and that is expectedThere is nothing to see at this stage and there should not be. Hair grows a centimetre a month, so even a perfect result has nowhere to show itself yet.
  3. Week 8The week we measure itWe scan you again and look at the root rather than the mirror. This is the only reliable read at this stage, which is why the scan matters more on this series than on any other.
  4. Month 3–6The roots are where you will see itIf it is working for you, it shows as new growth at the parting. Months, not weeks. Anyone who told you otherwise was selling you a dye.
The Age-Defying routine

Step one of three.

The shampoo carries the peptide during the wash. The conditioner handles the texture, which is half of why greying hair looks older. The tonic is on the scalp between washes, and the peptide sits eighth on its ingredient list against twenty-third here. Used alone it still helps. Used together it is a system.

Not sure this is the right one?

Guessing is expensive. Your first treatment is $59 and it opens with an AI scan of your scalp, so the next thing you buy is the one you actually need.

Before you buy

Questions we get asked

No. Nothing applied to hair that has already grown can change its colour except a dye, and this is not a dye. It works at the follicle, on hair that has not grown yet.

No. It is pigment-free. Nothing comes off on your pillow, nothing stains your hairline, and there is no regrowth line to manage.

Months. Hair grows about a centimetre a month, so even a perfect result is only visible once there is length to see it on. At week eight we scan you and measure at the root, which is the only honest read at that stage.

Lucas Meyer Cosmetics publish clinical data on GREYVERSE, the ingredient. That is their study of their raw material, not our study of this bottle, so we do not describe this product as clinically proven. If you would like their published data, ask us and we will point you to it.

Yes, and plenty of our customers do. The dye handles the hair you have already grown, this works on the hair you have not. You do not have to choose between them.

From your account, or one message to either studio. No minimum term, no cancellation fee.

Give us at least 48 hours before your next delivery is due. Inside that window the parcel is usually already packed, so it goes out as it is and the change applies from the order after.

It helps, but the tonic carries the same peptide far higher on its ingredient list and stays on the scalp between washes. If you are buying one thing from this range, buy the tonic.

Come and talk to us rather than quietly giving up. Eight weeks is the fair test, and a free scalp scan at either studio will show whether the scalp is moving or whether you are simply on the wrong bottle — if it is the wrong one, we will put you on the right one. And if you are holding something unopened, you can exchange it within 14 days of purchase for another product, or a treatment, of equal or higher value.
