## Description

desertcart.com : DHS Zinc Shampoo – Dandruff Shampoo – for Flaky and Dry Scalp with 2% Zinc Pyrithione, 8 oz : Hair Shampoos : Beauty & Personal Care

Review: No more beard flake. - Works very well on the crud.
Review: Very pleasant experience, seems powerfully effective - Pleasantly surprised!! This shampoo is exactly what I’ve been needing. The scent is a light powdery floral scent, and it isn’t overpowering or strong at all, just faint. It lathers easily and beautifully, and my hair felt so soft while massaging the lather. I was caught off guard by the opaque light orange color of the shampoo, but it’s not an issue, just wasn’t expecting it to look like that. I let it sit on my scalp for 5 minutes and after rinsing, my hair was squeaky clean and in need of conditioner. I don’t think the shampoo is color safe, I could see some bleeding, but perhaps that was the temperature of the water also? I washed my hair hours ago and I can already tell that my scalp is healing of the seborrheic dermatitis flakes because my scalp also feels very soothed. I’m going to use the shampoo again in a few days but I’m feeling very confident that this treatment has worked.
