PHILIP KINGSLEY Flaky Scalp Shampoo for Dry & Oily Scalps, 8.45 oz — Soothing, Color-Safe Cleansing

PHILIP KINGSLEY Flaky Scalp Shampoo is a gentle, colour-safe cleanser formulated to soothe irritation, reduce flaking and balance oily or dry scalps.

This targeted shampoo combines scalp-soothing actives with mild surfactants to remove excess oil, dissolve buildup and calm itching without stripping colour-treated hair. It’s designed for regular use and aims to leave hair feeling clean while addressing visible flakes and scalp discomfort. The formulation centers on Piroctone Olamine for antiflake action alongside cocamidopropyl betaine for soft, effective cleansing.

How quickly will I notice reduced flaking and itching?

Most users report visible improvement after a few washes, though scalp condition and severity vary. Consistent use as part of a regular washing routine delivers the best results, particularly for flaking caused by oil buildup or mild irritation.

• Use 2–3 times weekly to start, adjusting frequency based on results.
• Massage into roots for 1–2 minutes to lift flakes and oil.
• Rinse thoroughly to avoid residue that can cause recurrence.

Will it affect colour-treated hair or cause dryness?

This shampoo is formulated to be colour-safe and gentle, so it cleans without stripping salon colour. Its mild surfactant system helps maintain hair moisture while targeting the scalp rather than aggressively drying the lengths.

• Safe for regular use on colour-treated hair.
• Formulated to cleanse without harsh sulfates that fade dye quickly.
• Follow with a conditioner on mid-lengths and ends for added hydration.

Which scalp types benefit most from this formula?

The product is suited to combination concerns—oily roots with visible flakes, dry irritated patches, or scalps prone to buildup and itching. It calms inflammation while addressing the microbial and sebum factors that contribute to flaking.

• Helps oily scalps with flaking and residue.
• Soothes dry, irritated scalp areas without over-drying.
• Appropriate for people seeking a gentle, daily-usable solution.

How should I incorporate this into my hair care routine?

Use instead of your regular shampoo until the scalp condition improves, then maintain with periodic washes. Pair with a lightweight conditioner on the lengths and avoid heavy styling products that can increase scalp buildup.

• Apply to wet hair, lather at the scalp, leave for one minute if needed, then rinse.
• Follow with a conditioner applied from mid-lengths to ends only.
• Reduce frequency if the scalp becomes overly dry, or alternate with a gentler shampoo.

Who is this for: PHILIP KINGSLEY Flaky Scalp Shampoo is aimed at anyone experiencing visible flakes, itching or oily buildup who wants a clinically informed, colour-safe cleansing option. It’s ideal for people with combination scalp concerns, those who colour their hair, and anyone seeking a shampoo suitable for routine use that focuses on scalp comfort and clarity rather than heavy conditioning or volumizing effects.
