Amazon Basics Moisturizing Anti-Dandruff Shampoo, Maximum Strength with 1% Selenium Sulfide, 11 Fl Oz, Pack of 1

After 1 use!!!! The before picture was taken 1 hour AFTER washing my hair (i double wash) and the flakes were already visible. :( i hate it because my hair is black so the contrast makes it stand out. My scalp also feels inflamed on day 2-3 if i don't wash again. But then i dry my hair out. I took this last week and started looking for a solution. Then I bought this a few days ago and used it today when it arrived. After pic is also 1 hour AFTER doing my normal shampoo+one more round with this (i left it on for 5 mins). Rinsed and added conditioner to my ends. No flakes! Well maybe 1-2 here and there potentially but not obvious like before. You can judge for yourself. My scalp feels clean, not dry. I can’t smell the stink of the shampoo bc my conditioner covered it. I didn't find it to be overwhelming tbh. The smell is expected out of a medicated treatment so eh whatever. I asked my brother and dad if they could smell anything weird on my hair and they said no. But n=3 if you include me so idk. For $5, I think it’s worth it !

I recently tried the Amazon Basics Moisturizing Dandruff Shampoo, and I’m genuinely impressed. It uses 1% selenium sulfide—the same active ingredient in pricier brands—but costs a fraction of the price. The shampoo lathers nicely, and the addition of aloe really helps keep my hair soft instead of stripping it dry. After just a couple of uses, I noticed less itching and fewer flakes. It didn’t leave my hair feeling crunchy; instead, it rinsed clean and left a light, fresh scent. One thing I liked was the moisturizing feel—I didn’t need an extra conditioner afterward, which saves time and money. A few weeks in, the dandruff hasn’t come back, and my scalp feels healthy. If you’re dealing with flakes or itchiness and want something effective without being harsh, this shampoo hits the sweet spot.

Very good for what i needed, will repurchase, worked well for my hair type which is wavy, and helped with the oiliness of my hair. Also you get a nice amount of product for the price

If you want to save money, get this, same ingredients as Selsun Blue, cheaper price, sounds like a win win. My main issue with my scalp is itchiness, my scalp felt way cleaner with this shampoo, the itching subsided within 2 days. It does dry out my hair, I did use garnier fructis oil on my ends before washing and after washing and my hair was still very dry afterwards, I even used my regular shampoo (redken frizz dismiss) afterwards so I could blow out my hair, it was frizzy the next morning, and two days after it looked like it had never been blown out, very frizzy. Due to the lack of moisture, my scalp doesn’t feel oily at all, which is great. Here’s my biggest critique, it leaves an awful pungent smell of sulfur on my scalp, it made me gag the first day after the wash and dry, it’s bad, it’s the only reason I’m giving it 4 stars, but overall if you’re looking for a cheaper, cost effective alternative to find some relief, get this. Just bear in mind that the scent is not pleasant at all, my husband also used it and had the same complaint about the scent, however he did find relief and found that it helped with dandruff control as well as I did.

If you struggle with stubborn scalp flaking or irritation, the 1% Selenium Sulfide formula in this shampoo provides me relief. It acts just like the brand name antidandruff shampoos, nice more budget friendly alternative.

This shampoo is just as good as selsun blue! And $3 cheaper. Hard deal to pass up! Only complaint is the smell is a bit stronger than selsun blue. But it leaves my hair incredibly soft.

It works well for what it is - helps keep my psoriasis at bay and clear for the most part. However, it's quite gloopy and pasty compared to say Selsun Blue. Which, if you're using it in a salve kind of manner, is beneficial. My dad uses this on his skin irritations around his elbows and being thicker works better for topical use. Use for hair though, it's hard to sort of get it going through your hair without creating a weird mass of the product; takes alot of extra massaging in and thinning with water to spread easily through hair.

Good solid shampoo! Really help tone my head itching down! Definitely will consider purchasing in the future!
