It has been ages since I have exfoliated my scalp. I am a bit scared because of my highlights/lowlights. The main reason I got this set is because I am in love with the Hydrating Treatment Balm. The value on this product alone is worth the entire TS price! I use it as a leave-in on wet hair and also as a finishing product on dry hair before/after I style. The TSV that I have on AD from QVC had the 3 oz. size. If I decide the scrub is a bit too much for my scalp, I'm going to use it on my body. Denis said you can use the scrub on your face and body too.

@jpie - do you prefer the tweaked balm as a leave in vs WEN cleanser as leave in? I use WEN and Tweeked for haircare

Hi! I prefer the Tweek'd because I like the fact you can use it wet and then dry. With Wen products, I used the CC (wet), and then the SC (wet), and then the dry oil spray (on dry hair pre and post styling). For my hair type, which is long and 2C (wavy), I have better luck and versatility with the Hydrating Treatment Balm. I do prefer to blow dry my hair and then I use the InStyler, Caj flat iron, or Chi Lava Ceramic Spin Curler (only if I get fancy and do a beachy wave).

I'm not sure which product line does better with my hair in the summer time humidity. But overall, Tweek'd is one product that does a great job to keep my hair sleek and under control for normal weather conditions.

@jpie Thank you for sharing your usage info. I'm reconsidering a buy decision for the Green Tea.

@Chi-town girl

I think you will like it. If you don't, I'll take a road trip to Chicago (from St. Louis ) and swap you out for the scrub, LOL! I'ts been ages since I've been to your fabulous Navy Pier!

I bought the 6 pk of scrubs and Cleanditioners back when they were a TS a few months back, so I don't need any. I used the scrub this morning, but I guess because I have very hard water, it doesn't foam up very much. Also, because it contains a clay that can strip hair color and because I color red which is the hardest color to maintain, I only use it before doing a color, so once a month. I don't have strong feelings about it one way or another considering how much I really wanted to try the scrub.

@Icegoddess Like you, I got that 6pk of scrubs and conditioners and still have some of the 8oz tub, so I have more than enough to last me awhile and I'm passing on the TS. Like you also, my hair is red/auburn and I rarely use the scrub until I'm pretty faded, so generally about once a month too (which is why it lasts me so long and why a 16oz tub is a little too much for me).

Since we've been sheltered, and I haven't had my hair colored, I should be using it far more! I think I'm going to do so tomorrow. I do like the original Green Tea scrub but always have to use a conditioner after (I still have some rise & shine conditioner which works well with it until I break open the clayditioner tube) but I'm curious about the balm. Never tried that product but don't want to try it on a supersize.

The scrub is amazing and I love the balm. Since starting Tweak-d products my gray hair is soft, shiny and so healthy. No more itchy scalp and I only have to cleanse a couple times a week. I use the scrub once a week. My hair was starting to think due to age and now it's thicker. My stylist is very impressed. It has given my curly hair softer curls, and no frizz. I only use the Balm to style. No blow dryer needed. If you have short hair this will last between 12 & 18 months.
