DHS Tar Gel Shampoo Scented 8 oz

I also use the DHS brand 2% zinc and this works just as well on my skin without the sting. I understand the tar gel version here is less stinky than the original, which I'm considering trying next because I've come to find out I really don't mind the odor and I think it's much less strong than it was when I smelled it on first use, and the odor doesn't stay behind when you rinse it out, so good on them. I just suspect that the non-gel version might work better, because they still sell it, there has to be a reason lol. Seems like it lasts too, you only need a dab or two. One 8oz bottle has lasted me all year and there's about 1/10th of it left by my estimate, but I'm only working with a beard lol.

If you have a problem with seborrhiec dermatitis as I do, you know ordinary dandruff shampoos just aren't effective at handling the itch and flaky scalp. I went to a site that specializes in product recommendations for scalp conditions, and it recommended DHS shampoo for their lack of irritants and effectiveness, while also being gentle on hair and not irritatingly medicinal smelling. This shampoo is like a miracle product! I used it twice a week as recommended and after the first week, my problem was solved and my hair was in great shape. I do dye my hair and get highlights, and this shampoo didn't affect the color at all. My hair didn't feel dry or tangled after rinsing out the shampoo - I left it on for 5 minutes as recommended the first application, but with subsequent uses I only left it on for about a minute. I used Nature's Gate Tea Tree shampoo and conditioner as my alternate shampoo for a while, but now use a violet shampoo to retain the blonde tones in my dark blonde hair. I use the DHS gel shampoo about once every week and a half now.

I used this for years because it’s doctor recommended for my psoriasis and it works great!

I’ve used it for 4 or 5 washes now, and it is helping. My scalp is significantly less irritated, but there’s still some flaking going on. There’s a lot less than before though, so there’s a definite improvement. It’s just not a complete overnight miracle worker. I also find it’s not too hard to mask the smell of the shampoo on your hair if you follow with a normal-smelling shampoo afterward. Overall not bad at all, I was skeptical at first but it works. I’ll probably be re-purchasing!

Highly recommended, it leaves the scalp feeling great.
