Product Information

Full details

Designed for adults struggling with severe dandruff and seborrheic dermatitis, this Clinical Strength shampoo offers a professional-grade solution for those requiring more than standard over-the-counter care. Its primary benefit is the 1% Selenium Sulfide formula, which provides intensive itch relief and clinically proven protection against flakes; however, users should be aware that the high-potency medicinal formula requires consistent use and may have a stronger scent than traditional cosmetic shampoos.

FAQs

Can I use this product every day?

It is generally recommended for use at least twice a week. Daily use may be too harsh for some scalp types; consult a doctor for frequent use advice.

Is this safe for color-treated hair?

While the formula is effective, the strong active ingredients can sometimes strip color. Using a color-protecting conditioner is advised.

How long until I see results?

You should experience 35% more dandruff-fighting power after the very first wash, with continued improvement over time.

Does this replace my regular shampoo?

You can use it as a treatment shampoo, alternating with a milder shampoo if you feel your hair needs extra hydration.

Is the cooling sensation normal?

Yes, the cooling sensation is due to the infused menthol, which helps soothe the itch associated with dandruff.

Can children use this?

This product is intended for adult use. Please consult a pediatrician before using on children.

Troubleshooting

Scalp feels dry after washing

Apply a deep-conditioning treatment to the hair strands only, avoiding the scalp.

Persistent dandruff continues after two weeks

Ensure the product is sitting on the scalp for at least three minutes before rinsing; consult a dermatologist if symptoms persist.

Medicinal smell lingers

Follow the shampoo with a scented, leave-in hair serum or conditioner to neutralize the odor.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Targets the root cause of severe flaking
  • Provides immediate cooling relief for itchy scalps
  • Delivers measurable improvement after the first wash
  • Effective for seborrheic dermatitis
  • Reliable, clinically proven formula

Cons

  • Scent is more medicinal than cosmetic products
  • May be drying to hair strands if not followed with conditioner
  • Requires regular use to maintain flake-free results
  • Not intended for daily use on sensitive skin without medical advice

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For best results, apply to wet hair and massage thoroughly into the scalp. Rinse completely. Because of the intensive nature of the active ingredients, it is recommended to use this shampoo at least twice a week, or as directed by a physician. It is compatible with most hair types, though individuals with color-treated or chemically processed hair should use a moisturizing conditioner on the mid-lengths and ends, as the strong formula can leave the hair shaft feeling slightly dry. Store the bottle in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the integrity of the menthol and active compounds.
