How does this shampoo address flakes and scalp buildup?

The active ingredient, 2% salicylic acid, helps break down and loosen visible scale and flakes on the scalp, making them easier to rinse away. Botanical extracts in the formula help calm the scalp and reduce the sensation of itchiness often associated with dandruff.

• Tea tree and chamomile provide calming botanical support
• Designed for regular use to help manage recurring scalp shedding
• Rinses clean to leave hair feeling soft rather than stripped

How should I use this shampoo for best results?

Use at least twice weekly or as directed by a healthcare professional. Wet hair, apply the shampoo, massage into the scalp to lift debris and flakes, then rinse thoroughly; pairing with the matching conditioner helps maintain softness.

• Apply to wet hair and massage into the scalp for 1–2 minutes
• Rinse completely and repeat if needed for heavy buildup
• Use twice a week or follow your doctor’s instructions
