The Philip B Masterclass: Hair Science, Scalp Health & Why Everything You've Been Told About Hair Care Is Wrong

from Too Much with Denise Love Hewett · host Denise Love Hewett

This week, Denise sits down with Philip B, one of the most sought-after hair and scalp treatment experts in the world, for a full masterclass on what actually makes hair healthy, why the beauty industry has been getting it wrong for decades, and how a kid sorting rollers in a 1960s Beverly Hills salon built a brand now sold in 50 countries. Philip B breaks down the real science of scalp health, including a live pH demo that will change the way you shower , and explains why most haircare products, even the expensive ones, aren't solving your problems. They cover why tap water is the number one enemy of healthy hair, the truth about popular shower filters (they don't change the pH), how to think about haircare like a bank account, and why the "clean beauty" trend may be doing more harm than good. Philip also shares the story of building his brand from scratch in Beverly Hills, mixing formulas in his kitchen, getting a Vogue feature that crashed his phone line with 500 calls an hour, and landing in Neiman Marcus with a little help from Paula Abdul. This episode is for anyone who has ever wondered why their hair changed after coloring, why it tangles the second they get out of the shower, or how to actually treat a problem scalp. In this episode: Why the scalp is the foundation of all hair health (and why most people ignore it) The pH science behind tangling, frizz, and hair breakage — demonstrated live Why shower filters don't fix the real problem How to repair chemically damaged hair using the "bank account" method The botanical ingredients that actually work on dandruff and psoriasis Philip's origin story: Beverly Hills, Vogue, and building a global brand from a kitchen Why your zone of genius feels "too easy" — and why that's the point Philip B, hair and scalp expert to celebrities, sold in 50 countries, and named by Forbes as one of the products worth every penny, joins Denise for a full masterclass on the science of healthy hair.
