Obliterates stubborn dandruff at the source, but grab a heavy conditioner.
Style: Shampoo, Size: 7 Ounce, Style: Shampoo, Size: 7 Ounce
If standard drugstore dandruff shampoos aren't working for you, this is the heavy artillery. I put a banana next to the bottle in the picture for scale, which reminds me—this stuff will literally stop your scalp from peeling like one. Instead of just washing away loose flakes, the active ingredient (Ketoconazole) actually kills the underlying fungal overgrowth that causes the itching and flaking in the first place.
WHY IT'S A STAPLE:
• It works incredibly fast. Most people see a massive reduction in severe flaking and scalp redness after just two or three uses.
• It actually has a very clean, fresh scent, completely avoiding that awful medicinal or sulfur smell you get with coal tar shampoos.
CRITICAL USAGE WARNING:
• Because this is a serious, active treatment, it is incredibly drying to the actual hair shaft. If you use this without following up with a high-quality, heavy hydrating conditioner, your hair will dry out and feel like brittle straw. You only need to use it twice a week to maintain a clear scalp.
THE BOTTOM LINE:
The absolute undisputed heavyweight champion for eliminating stubborn dandruff, provided you pair it with a strong conditioner to protect your hair.
