Neutrogena T/Gel Anti-Dandruff Shampoo for Psoriasis and Seborrheic Dermatitis, 8.5 fl. oz

My Story: I have relaxed hair that is about midback length and my scalp had never really given me any problems. UNTIL THIS PAST SUMMER THAT IS. I went from having pretty much no scalp irritation to having an extremely itchy and flaky scalp. I'm still not sure what triggered the issue, but my mom does have seborrheic dermatitis so maybe it finally kicked in for me. ANYWAY, my scalp had gotten to the point where I was afraid to touch my hair in public, lest some flakes loosen themselves and I spent my first month of school wearing my hair pinned up (after being carefully arranged and inspected for visible flakes at home). As you can expect, this grew old very quickly. So I started searching for a solution and I stumbled upon the review page for this product. I was kind of worried about my hair drying out, but I couldn't deal with my scalp situation for much longer so I went ahead and ordered. Now, to further emphasize how uncomfortable my scalp was, I need you to understand something. I only wash my hair once a week during the weekends because it takes a couple of hours to wash/condition/dry and I'm swamped with school/work during the week. BUT my scalp was so uncomfortable that I ended up washing my hair shortly after the shampoo arrived in the middle of the week. That's how serious it was. AND IT WAS SO WORTH IT. While I was washing my hair, I felt the shampoo tingling against my irritated scalp during the first wash. After gently scrubbing my scalp (note that I said my scalp, not my hair-I will explain this later) for the first round of shampooing, I applied a second round of shampoo to my scalp and left it on for a few minutes before rinsing and applying a moisturizing shampoo & conditioner. It has been almost a week and my scalp feels amazing. I have pretty much no flakes (I've seen maybe two small ones? and I think they were just random remnants that got lost in my hair) and my scalp is itchy no longer. Plus I CAN WEAR MY HAIR DOWN AGAIN.Summary:If you are tired of dealing with scalp issues, I definitely recommend that you give this a try. Based off of how much I used, I imagine that the bottle will last me 2-3 months (with 1 wash/week).If you are worried about your hair being dry after using this here are some tips-1) Don't apply this shampoo to the length of your hair. Inevitably, there will be some run off when you are rinsing, but during your actual application try to concentrate on putting the T-gel on your scalp. When I was done with my two rounds of the T-gel, I did one wash with my regular moisturizing sulfate-free shampoo that I applied to the length of my hair.2) Make sure you use a good conditioner with this product. I used my usual Motions Herbal Fortifying Conditioner and I left it in for between 30 to 40 minutes like I usually do.After these these steps, I went through my regular routine (leave-ins etc.) and I experienced no dryness. The smell of the t-gel is almost like a spicy herbal smell, but it was tamed by my conditioners.

Works well, stops the itching and flaking.

I buy this every year or so when my scalp starts getting dry and itchy. It never fails to work. You don't need to use every day, so it is a decent value for the price. Oh man the smell is terrible, but worth dealing with for the results.

I'd been struggling with a desperately itchy scalp, and bits of skin flaking off when I scratched (no dandruff though) for around a year or so. Head and Shoulders wasn't doing anything, so after doing some research I picked out this shampoo to try. After maybe only two washes my scalp stopped flaking entirely, which was great. And it did soothe the itchiness somewhat, but didn't make it go away for good - I'd still get itchy again within a few hours. Ended up going to the doctor and getting prescription shampoo and it worked like a charm for the itchiness. I'd suggest giving this shampoo a go, it might work for you, but if symptoms persist, go to your doctor or dermatologist. The cost if insurance doesn't cover it all is annoying, but the peace of mind is worth it.Yes, the shampoo does smell like rubber. Yes, it's pretty strong. But like other reviewers have said, the smell doesn't linger in your hair, so you yourself won't smell rubbery post-shower.

I suffer with a flaky scalp. I have tried everything you can imagine and nothing helps or is consistent. This is my go to shampoo when my scalp is flaky. It has helped so much that my scalp is not as flaky as it once was. I see a lot of people do not like the smell which is understandable. It doesn’t bother me too much and isn’t so overpowering that I can’t get through my washes. I would say use your regular shampoo as well afterwards to help ease the smell. Overall this is a great product and it is worth the price.

I’ve suffered from this for almost 10 years or more and nothing had worked for me, maybe temporarily. The smallest movement would trigger skin flakes coming from my head, super annoying if you’re at a desk or if you like to keep your clothes clean, this absolutely deleted it after 2 weeks of use… what a product, don’t think twice if you want to try it out, it was so severe for me that Im shocked on how I don’t release skin flakes AT ALL.

I gave it a try and it really works!!!

Poor packaging, no seal。Smells bad
