DHS Refined Coal Tar Gel Shampoo for Scalp Psoriasis & Dandruff, 8 fl oz — Anti‑Flake, Mild Scent

DHS Person & Covey T Gel Shampoo is a refined coal-tar gel formula designed to deep-clean the scalp and help reduce flaking, itching, and scaling linked with dandruff, seborrheic dermatitis, and scalp psoriasis.

This 8 fl. oz. scalp care shampoo combines a rich, lathering gel base with refined coal tar to target the visible signs of chronic scalp conditions while rinsing clean and leaving a mild, pleasant scent. The formulation focuses on helping manage flakes and irritation from repeated use without harsh fragrances or parabens. It's packaged for regular at-home use and can be integrated into an existing care routine.

How quickly can I expect to see improvement in flakes and itch?

Individual results vary, but many users notice reduced visible flaking and less scalp irritation after several applications. Consistent use as directed offers the best chance of seeing steady improvement.

• Use as your regular shampoo, massaging into wet hair and scalp for 1–3 minutes before rinsing.
• Apply 2–3 times weekly initially for more persistent flakes, then reduce as condition stabilizes.
• Rinses clean to avoid residue that can worsen flaking when left behind.

Can this be used on sensitive or treated scalps?

The shampoo is formulated to be paraben-free and mildly scented, which helps reduce the chance of irritation for many users. However, if you have a particularly sensitive scalp or are using prescription topical treatments, check with a healthcare professional before combining products.

• Mild scent and paraben-free to limit unnecessary additives.
• Refined coal tar reduces visible scaling without abrasive scrubbing.
• Avoid contact with broken skin; discontinue if severe irritation occurs.

How should I incorporate this shampoo into my hair-care routine?

This gel shampoo works best when used as a dedicated scalp treatment on wash days rather than as an everyday cosmetic cleaner. Pair it with a gentle, moisturizing conditioner on lengths if your hair feels dry after treatment to maintain manageability.

• Wet hair thoroughly, massage into the scalp for up to three minutes, then rinse.
• Use treatment frequency based on symptom severity—start with a few times per week.
• Follow with a hydrating conditioner on mid-lengths and ends if needed.

What makes refined coal tar different in this shampoo?

Refined coal tar is included for its historical use in addressing visible scalp scaling and flaking. In this gel formula, the ingredient is combined to produce a rich lather that targets affected areas while rinsing away without heavy residue.

• Refined coal tar is blended into a gel for even application across the scalp.
• Designed to help loosen and remove scaling for a cleaner-feeling scalp.
• Formulated to rinse clean, leaving a light, unobtrusive scent.

Who is this for? DHS Person & Covey T Gel Shampoo is suited for adults seeking an over-the-counter scalp treatment to manage persistent flaking, visible scaling, and itch linked to dandruff, seborrheic dermatitis, or scalp psoriasis. It's a practical option for people who prefer a gel shampoo that lathers well and rinses clean, and for those looking to incorporate a targeted scalp product into an at-home routine. Not intended for children under the product's recommended age or for use on broken or severely inflamed skin without professional guidance.
