Folliculitis Shampoo for Itchy, Dry Scalp, Flakes & Dandruff | Soothes, Cleanses, Exfoliates, Removes Build-Up | Reactivates Hair Follicles - 6 oz

I started using this shampoo recently and wasn’t really expecting anything dramatic, but it actually ended up helping more than I thought it would. I picked it up after dealing with some irritation around my scalp and hairline that just wouldn’t go away. I had some small bumps and itchiness that would come and go, and it seemed worse whenever I was stressed or after long days when my scalp felt oily and uncomfortable. I had tried a few other products before this, including some medicated treatments, but nothing seemed to make a noticeable difference. I’ll admit I’m usually a little doubtful when products highlight a lot of “natural” ingredients because sometimes that feels more like advertising than actual effectiveness. But after using this for a few days in a row, I started noticing my scalp feeling calmer and less irritated. It seems like it does a really good job of cleansing the scalp and getting rid of buildup that can clog hair follicles and cause irritation. One thing I really like is how it feels when you use it. It has a light cooling sensation that makes your scalp feel refreshed, especially if it’s been itchy or irritated. It leaves a subtle tingly feeling that’s actually pretty soothing. The scent is also nice, it has a clean tea tree smell that feels fresh without being overpowering. When you first apply it, the scent is a little strong, but once you rinse it out and your hair dries it fades into a much softer, clean smell. Another thing I noticed is that you don’t need very much product for it to work well. Even though the bottle isn’t huge, a small amount lathers up nicely if you massage it into your scalp properly. Because of that, the bottle seems like it will last a while. After my scalp started improving, I didn’t feel like I had to use it every single day either. Using it every couple of days has been enough to keep things feeling balanced. Overall, I’m really glad I decided to give this shampoo a try. It ended up working better than several other things I had already tried. If you’re dealing with scalp irritation, bumps, or buildup and nothing else has helped much, this might be worth testing out. It definitely surprised me in a good way.

I’ve been using this shampoo for a little over a week now, and I’m honestly impressed with the results. I started noticing a big difference in my dandruff after just a few uses my scalp feels much cleaner and less itchy. It also smells really nice, like a fresh, clean scent that isn’t too strong. That’s a big plus for me because a lot of dandruff shampoos don’t smell great. Overall, it works really well and leaves my hair feeling clean and refreshed. Definitely recommend if you’re dealing with dandruff!

I purchased this item November 2015. It's January 2016 and my scalp has been clean for a while. I don't know if it's the shampoo or the combination of the shampoo with clindamycin. However, my scalp is clean. I have had scalp and body folliculitis in a chronic stage for many, many years, too many to count. Painful postules stopped me from wearing a hat in frigid temperatures, embarrassing haircuts, where if the barber nicked me, I bled, head hurt to place on pillows at night, and if the base of my scalp touched the shirt collar, it hurt. I've taken antibiotics which made it go away for a while; Accutane, which gave me racing suicidal thoughts so had to be taken off it, but it did clear my scalp for about 6 months, and have used combinations of tea tree oil shampoos and clindamycin foam. Nothing worked. They always reappeared. Docs have said, "it's something you'll have to live with." I decided to try this shampoo based on the reviews. Some of the reviews are good, some are bad. I bought the shampoo and the scalp solution together and began treatment. Yes, I didn't/don't like the smell, but I was desperate to try anything that would help. After first couple of shampoos, the folliculitis seemed to get worse. The postules got more sore, more red, and more tender to the touch. It was painful. I have them on my chest hairs as well and they got more tender and red as well. But I persevered. At first, I didn't want to use anything else with the shampoo to rule out the possibility of not knowing if it was working or not. But it got so bad, I added the clindamycin into the mix. I was shampooing every day. Leaving it on for a full 5 minutes. I'd take a break for a few days, use the clindamycin, and then go back to shampooing. So for the month of December it was shampooing on and off and applying the clindamycin. I don't know when they disappeared, but I haven't had a break out. I'm skeptical. I keep waiting for them to reappear so I'm still shampooing as a preventative measure, but my scalp is clean. My chest shows the remnants of past postules, but currently no active puss filled painful postules. I laid off the solution because it smells like wet dog. Not a good thing when riding NYC subways and people are pressed up against you with their noses stuck in your hair. Who says NYers don't care? Anyway, was it the shampoo, the clindamycin, the combo? I don't know. I've used clindamycin foam for years and it's relief has only been minor or temporary. It's like whack a mole. One goes away and three more pop up. All I know is I'm going to continue using this shampoo. I will check back in next month and let you know if its still working. Good luck!
