Neutrogena T/Gel Anti-Dandruff Shampoo for Psoriasis and Seborrheic Dermatitis, 4.2 fl. oz

I've had scalp issues since I was a kid, I've tried over 10 different medicated shampoos over the years and found T-Gel to be the best. Not thrilled by the smell, but its not a problem given that if fixes my scalp issues.

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.

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 great. When I use it to wash twice during use, I have to make sure to use a conditioner after or look like there's not an ounce of natural oil in my hair, but no more dandruff problems. So life is all about the compromise . . .

Works well, stops the itching and flaking.

These are the best shampoos I have found for itchy scalp and dandruff. Can't find them in the local stores so Amazon is my best source.

Best dandruff shampoo ever. Still wish it was manufactured.

The bottle came leaking through the container. For the price I paid, the amount was a little unacceptable. I knew what I was getting because I read the label prior to purchasing but was a little disappointed nonetheless. I expected this shampoo to work the way the reviews say it did, but that just wasn’t the case for me. For the price I paid I should’ve just got a couple T/Sal shampoos instead, I’ve found those work better for my scalp than anything. I won’t be purchasing T/Gel again. Lathering with this shampoo is fine but I feel it doesn’t wash properly. You could find this at your local HEB for a significantly cheaper price. The Hill Country brand has one like this that works decently.For context; My scalp is very oily. I’ve been trying to wash every other day, but it becomes slightly flakey and itchy. I bought this in hopes of clearing it, but it just doesn’t work for me. Works for about a day and then the issue reoccurres. Maybe it’s just my scalp. I don’t know.
