I didn't have dandruff...
My scalp started itching about a year ago. I got some prescription stuff to put on it. Then it's started breaking out. I had always used moisturizing shampoo and conditioner, so I changed but it didn't help. This treatment has worked wonders after just one application! I highly recommend it for scalp issues.

A scalp care game changer!
I’ve been using this salicylic acid scalp treatment 1–2 times a week, and the results have been incredible! My scalp used to be dry, flaky, and oily by midday—but since introducing this, the itchiness and flakes have nearly vanished. My hair even stays fresher longer, sometimes without needing a wash for days! The lightweight, runny formula is easy to apply and doesn’t feel greasy at all. Plus, it rinses out completely, leaving no residue in my hair. I’ve noticed healthier scalp vibes and even a reduction in redness and irritation. If you struggle with buildup, itchiness, or oily roots, this is a must-try. It’s gentle, effective, and trust me—you’ll wonder how you ever lived without it!

INKEY works wonders on my scalp and hair.
The INKEY scalp treatment has worked wonders for my scalp and hair. I noticed the change right away because my scalp and hair felt so soft and moisturized just as soon as I rinsed after the recommended 10 minutes. In addition I did not feel the need to use so much shampoo and conditioner, which for me is wonderful and saves money on the high end products I use on my hair.

Mixed feelings
I think this does keep my scalp cleaner... but for like an additional 12 hours. What helped even more with keeping my scalp cleaner for longer and less itchy was finding a great clarifying shampoo and fixing my shampooing technique. I use the fragrance free kristen ess shampoo or the DHL Clear Shampoo. I thought that the salicylic acid would help my head produce less oil, but I ended up getting acne now my head!! I used it for 3 months and just stopped and the acne went away entirely.

Damaged and Unsealed product
I don’t even want to give it one star. The box was damaged and there is no seal. Obviously I will not put this on my scalp.

Works for some things
I have a very specific type of scalp and hair combo (oily and low porosity) that i found this made worse. My sister used it for seboheric dermatitis on her scalp and she noticed improvements and loves it.

Excellent for Psoriasis
Unfortunately my psoriasis gets extremely bad, covering half my head. A small movement from my head and I’ve flakes falling as though it’s a snowy day. Prescription medication is generally steroid based and it has a negative effect if used regularly. I try to use it only once a week, but in the meantime I needed something to effectively remove the flaky loose skin; it is an embarrassing condition as well as horrendously itchy and often painful. It’s extremely difficult to not scratch. I tried a different product from Amazon with a hefty price tag which was brand for psoriasis. Omg, once applied the stinging was unbearable, which I may have put up with if it helped. I used the whole container as directed and the results were poor. In fact, I’ve used too many different products to count. I was wary of purchasing yet another product, but my son wanted some to lift minor flaky scalp, probably a build up of product on his scalp. I felt even if it didn’t help me, it would hopefully assist him. Im aware of this brand for offering premium products at a low price, which are highly sought after. I used it the day it arrived, although cautiously and awaiting the stinging…but I felt zero irritation, nothing except the cold liquid running through my scalp. It’s a water like substance, therefore take it steady when squeezing the container and use it somewhere appropriately, incase of spillage. I probably left it on double the time by accident as I dozed off. Thankfully no adverse effects. I showered and washed and conditioned my hair as normal and proceeded to blow dry my hair. I was extremely surprised to find my scalp to what I could feel as 100% flake free and my scalp felt clean and smooth. I will add I’d previously applied my psoriasis treatment a few days previously and my scalp was only inflamed and flaky slightly. My hair was also very clean and I had lots of baby hairs sticking out, I’d say this is from dehydration from this product. A major amount of my hair was too dry as I used a lot of this product. In future, I will use a hair mask afterwards. It didn’t ‘treat’ my psoriasis and approximately 3 days later my flakiness and itching started to return. However, I’m extremely happy with the product, it certainly worked as advertised and I will continue to use it as an in between treatment to keep my flakes under control. Fantastic product, very easy to use, excellent results and fantastic value. I will definitely re purchase when needed.

Perfect for Curly Hair - Amazing Scalp Exfoliator!
I recently tried this scalp exfoliator, and it’s been a fantastic addition to my curly hair care routine! As someone with curly hair, I often deal with product buildup that can weigh down my curls and make my scalp feel less than fresh. This exfoliator has been a game-changer for tackling that issue. The formula is gentle yet effective, working to remove buildup without stripping my hair or irritating my scalp. The texture is just right—gritty enough to exfoliate but not harsh or abrasive. It lathers well and leaves my scalp feeling clean, refreshed, and balanced, which helps my curls bounce and look their best. I also love that there’s no strong scent to it—it’s virtually odorless, which is a huge plus for me since I prefer products that don’t clash with my other hair products or perfumes. Using it is simple: just massage it into your scalp during your shower, leave it on for a few minutes, and rinse. It doesn’t leave any residue behind, and my hair feels lighter and more manageable after every use. If you have curly hair and struggle with buildup, I highly recommend giving this scalp exfoliator a try. It’s become a staple in my routine, and I’m so glad I found it! **Rating: 5/5** (Effective, easy to use, and perfect for curly hair—no complaints!)

Très intéressant
En combinaison avec une routine adaptée vraiment c’est pas mal. Une vie gravement malade vous aurez mal aux cheveux. De toute manière ils restent plus propres plus longtemps malgré des soins qui sur moi graissent immédiatement le jour même d’un lavage, plus de volume donc ça cache sincèrement l’effet clairsemé. Je n’ai pas l’impression que des cheveux repoussent mais si le bulbe a pris il n’y a rien à faire. Je suis déjà bien contente de tenir trois jours sans les laver et de bien moins voir l’état des tempes et la finesse du cheveux… Par contre faire attention au bouchon, je vois pas bien et avec peu de force alors qu’il est dur à ouvrir, j’ai cru qu’il fallait couper l’embout 😅!! Non non dévissez bien et ensuite je tire avec une multiprise 🫥
