Amazing for dandruff

Indeed a professional qualty shampoo which keeps my hair dandruff free for a long time

This is my honest review. I have purchased this product at least 3-4 times. I have Afro 4C, kinky coily natural hair that is medium density. I have a sensitive scalp and I am prone to eczema flare ups. Positives: -great for sensitive scalp, eczema prone scalp, irritated scalp -calms inflammation -great for dandruff -fragrance free -little goes a long way (bottle last a while) -lathers well -cleanses and clarifies very well -fragrance free Negatives: -dries out hair! especially if you have kinky curly hair it can make hair feel like straw ( condition/ moisturize well after or use a moisturizing shampoo for hair and this only on the scalp) -careful not to leave it on scalp for too long or rub your scalp too rough because it can cause discomfort on the scalp My experience: This this the only shampoo I use on my scalp, or the the only shampoo I can use on my scalp. My scalp two years ago broke out from all the fragrances in regular shampoos such as Shea a Moisture and Carol’s daughter ( no longer use them). Both left my scalp inflamed, sensitive and bleeding. In addition to the painful irritation my scalp became prone to dandruff. I found this shampoo while researching and it has saved my scalp. This shampoo is very cleansing so it takes away all the dandruff and dirt etc. My scalp always feels cleansed and clean and fresh afterwards. It helped heal all the sores and I have not used another shampoo on my scalp sense. The downside is because it is so cleansing it dries out your hair. If you have oilier hair then this may not be so bad but natural and drier hair it will make it feel like straw. I use this on my scalp and use Pantene gold series shampoo on my hair ( I don’t let it touch my scalp), and I do a pre shampoo with oil as well. It is a great product for sensitive scalp, irritated scalp, eczema prone scalp and dandruff prone scalp. Overall I highly recommend for sensitive scalp and dandruff prone hair.

suitable for sensitive scalp

This shampoo is great! It works and my wife doesn’t have to worry about scents that will bother her.

In a nutshell, this product works as advertised to make the hair and scalp soft, soothed, and flake-free. It has almost no scent and should be friendly for any type of skin or hair needs due to its very gentle formula free from common irritants. My main gripe is that this bottle is only 8 oz, and it tends to be more expensive than the 12 oz bottle of 'regular' Free and Clear shampoo. A double-edged sword of this shampoo is that precisely BECAUSE it doesn't contain potentially irritating compounds found in 'normal' shampoos, it doesn't foam up well, and I find I have to use more than I anticipated. I have long hair and I am going to go through this bottle in a small number of shampoos, so I wish it came in a larger size that was also more cost efficient. Two things I noticed upon my first time using it: * This is NOT a tearless shampoo despite its gentle formulation. I got some in my eyes and it stung real bad. * After first rinse, my scalp was MORE flaky than when I started. I was initially outraged and thought this product was a bust. Once I shampooed again a few days later, the flakes were all gone and remained gone, and I was comforted that it actually worked. I think it was just dislodging all the residue that was on my scalp and setting it free. A little more about my overall experience with these types of shampoos in case it helps others - I have a contact dermatitis allergy to CAPB, a common foaming/sudsing agent that is in literally every commercial shampoo, so the options I have are very limited. I also have eczema where my skin can be sensitive and flare up bad if exposed to something it does not like. I have been familiar with many of the Vanicream / Free and Clear products for years due to my skin's needs, and I had been using the other type of Free and Clear shampoo off and on, but I didn't really like that it made my hair feel kind of like straw. I had switched to using Dr. Bronner's multipurpose soap/cleanser/shampoo because I liked the scents, but I found that it was giving me flaky scalp and my head would get horribly itchy about 2-3 days after shampooing. So I tried this one, and I will keep using it because it works, but I will still grumble a bit about the price. In comparing this to the other Free and Clear shampoo, this one actually seems to make my hair feel a little softer. I do also use the Vanicream conditioner after, and then I spray a leave-in conditioner in and comb my hair really well to get all the snarls out. I wash my hair about every 5 days and this shampoo also does seem to help make my hair shinier, more bouncy, and less greasy.
