CALMING Shampoo Davines Naturaltech CALMING Shampoo is a delicate, low-lather formula with Zanthoxylum Bungeanum Fruit Extract and Vitamin E that gently cleanses sensitive or reactive scalps while immediately soothing inflammation, tightness, and irritation. The Moda Team Review: A Shampoo That Treats the Scalp as the Skin It Is Sensitive scalps are often overlooked in haircare — the scalp is skin, and like skin on any other part of the body, it can be reactive, inflamed, prone to tightness, and easily disrupted by the wrong cleanser. The CALMING Shampoo is Davines' response to that: a formula built around scalp comfort rather than just cleansing performance. The Zanthoxylum Bungeanum (Sichuan Pepper) Extract is a genuinely unusual ingredient — it's a neurocosmetic active, meaning it works on the scalp's sensory nerve receptors to interrupt the irritation signal directly. Clients often notice the soothing effect during the wash itself. The texture is a light, gentle lather — purposely mild and free from common sensitizers. It cleans effectively without stripping the scalp's natural protective barrier, which is often already compromised in clients with reactive scalps. The anti-oxidant Vitamin E provides protective support alongside the soothing actives. Davines recommends following it with the CALMING Superactive leave-in for continued relief between washes; the two products are designed as a system. Key Active Ingredient Zanthoxylum Bungeanum (Sichuan Pepper) Fruit Extract — A neurocosmetic ingredient that works by modulating the TRPV1 receptors on the scalp — the same receptors that register heat, pain, and tightness. By targeting these receptors, it reduces the inflammatory signals that cause scalp discomfort and irritation. Davines paired it with Vitamin E (Tocopherol) for broad-spectrum antioxidant and barrier-protective support. Moda Pro Tip Recommend this to any client whose scalp is the reason they avoid colour services or whose scalp itching is the first thing they mention in the chair. The CALMING range is typically where we start that conversation. Pair with the CALMING Superactive leave-in for clients whose sensitivity persists between washes. How To Use Wet hair thoroughly. Apply a small amount of shampoo to the scalp. Gently massage with fingertips — avoid vigorous rubbing that can further irritate a sensitive scalp. Rinse thoroughly. Follow with CALMING Superactive leave-in for extended soothing effect.
