SEEN Haircare Review: Not Just For Acne-Prone Skin

As soon as we heard about SEEN hair products , we knew we had to test them out. Dr. Iris Rubin, the founder of SEEN, is a Harvard-trained dermatologist who noticed something missing in the world of haircare, haircare designed with skin in mind. It's too often that you look at a shampoo ingredient list and find something amiss. You'll either find something that's not so good for hair, like sodium lauryl sulfate, or it's got pore-clogging ingredients that are no good for acne-prone skin. Dr. Rubin has solved this problem by creating SEEN hair products. Read on to see what everyone at Art of Skin Care thinks of this skin-loving haircare.

About SEEN Haircare

Dr. Rubin, as a dermatologist, noticed patients dealing with breakouts and struggling to get to the root of the issue. After personally getting breakouts after salon visits, Dr. Rubin did some sleuthing and research. The culprit turned out to be hair products lingering on her skin. So, she set out to solve the problem by creating SEEN.


First, each finished formula gets tested to ensure that it is non-comedogenic. This is extremely important since some ingredients can mix and become pore-clogging together. Second, SEEN just leaves the hair and scalp feeling fabulous.

Scented or Fragrance-Free: You Choose

One of the other great things about SEEN is that each product comes in two varieties: scented or fragrance-free. We often have clients who have sensitive skin, or don't care for strong fragrance, so it's nice to have options available.

Blow-Out Creme and Curly Creme

Of course, Dr. Rubin didn't settle for just creating amazing shampoo and conditioner, she also formulated two styling products. First, Blow-Out Creme helps style hair and protect it from heat and UV damage. Second, Curly Creme defines and enhances curls beautifully. By all means, these would be fantastic styling products without any additional considerations. However, when you keep in mind that each formula is one hundred percent non-comedogenic, it becomes apparent just how impressive these cremes are.

SEEN Haircare Review and Testimonials

Ben's Testimonial

"Since using SEEN Haircare I have noticed a drastic improvement to my overall scalp and hair health. For years I have had stubborn dandruff that was only made more irritated even by using dandruff shampoos! When I started using SEEN the itching completely stopped and the dandruff started to improve! As someone with dry hair, the SEEN products really have balanced my hair’s moisture content. I don’t dread washing anymore because even after washing, my hair feels nourished and healthy.The last positive that wasn’t as much of a concern for me, but a welcome surprise was my partner noticed that the skin on my back cleared up significantly. I used to get blackheads and occasional acne on my back and since using SEEN those have all cleared up. SEEN has without a doubt contributed to healthier skin and hair and I don’t think I could ever go back to using regular shampoo. It’s helped me tremendously!"-Ben

As you can see, SEEN is a great shampoo for dandruff-prone scalps. This is due to the gentle formula with no harsh surfactants. SEEN's surfactants respect your skin and don't strip it of its natural oils.

Jake's Testimonial

"Okay, so you know how some shampoos leave your hair feeling too stripped, uncomfortable, and just kinda wrong? SEEN leaves my hair feeling squeaky clean, but never stripped or harsh. I'm also in the same camp as Ben: I have always had dandruff, but it's been way better since using SEEN. This is a huge relief because I feel super self-conscious if my dandruff flares up and is visible. My hair is healthier and happier than it's been in a long, long time. Also, I don't mind the scent, I think it's sort of nice in a nostalgic way. It reminds me of Pantene Pro-V or something."-Jake

Like Ben, Jake has struggled with dandruff. Dandruff, just like acne, can be a huge detriment to your self-confidence and appearance. SEEN can help eliminate dandruff and make it easy to look and feel great.

Ashley's Testimonial

"SEEN Haircare has quickly become a favorite of mine. I especially love their conditioner! It doesn't take a ton of it to make my hair feel nice and silky. The best part about it is that when I let my hair air dry afterwards without any product, it has little to no frizz. In the past, I have always had to take extra steps to calm frizz and flyaways, but not with this conditioner. SEEN shampoo and conditioner both are now forever staples in my hair care routine. Love this brand!"-Ashley

All of us at Art of Skin Care lead busy lives and work extremely hard. For that reason, SEEN cutting out steps in Ashley's routine is wonderful!

The Bottom Line

Well, the verdict is in from our SEEN Haircare review. Art of Skin Care collectively loves SEEN! We firmly believe that most people will fall in love with these skin-loving hair products. In fact, we bet that once you personally try them, it'll be hard to go back to other shampoos and conditioners. They are just that amazing!
