Review: Very shiny and beautiful hair - Great value and quality product and fragrance free and sulfate free. Cleans nicely without stripping the moisture out of your scalp and ends. I have relatively oily hair and it cleans very well and I use it every other day with the conditioner by CeraVe. Great value and quality product and good results from my months of using it. I have dandruff and I use ketoconazole shampoo twice a week in between the CeraVe. Highly recommend it and will continue to buy it again and again. Rich lather and makes my hair soft and manageable. I have fine and thin hair which I am using minoxidil every day as well. Very shiny and beautiful hair
Review: It works! Better than Head & Shoulders w/ Zinc Pyrithrone - Wow! Saved my scalp and hair! I have 1/2a/2b hair—fine, medium density, low porosity, and protein sensitive, with a very sensitive scalp. I used to use Head & Shoulders (I tried everything they offer) or Dove’s Dryness & Itch Relief dandruff shampoo. Both contain zinc pyrithione, and heavy-handed synthetic-smelling fragrance. Yuck. They both also left this gross residue on my hair, where my hair felt both dry and greasy. Double yuck. And my head would still get itchy by the next day! Triple yuck! So... not exactly a win-win for any part of my head. But I'd tried so many shampoos and these were the best options :( On the other hand, this CeraVe Hydrating Shampoo is fragrance-free, doesn’t contain zinc pyrithione and leaves my scalp itch-free all day, every day (!!!) and my hair clean and bouncy. I don’t know how they did it, but I’m so grateful!!! 🙏 You have no idea. I was going insane trying to find something that would work for me. I tried SO MANY shampoos and conditioners. I thought Target was going to ban me from how many I had tried and returned. CeraVe also worked well in both hard and soft water for me. Obviously it performed better in soft water, but in hard water I successfully paired it with a clarifying shampoo and chelator (as needed): L’Oréal’s Hard Water Clarifying Shampoo and MalibuC Hard Water packets. I had to be careful with that combo though. It did a great job at stripping my hair clean, but if I used it too often, it absolutely wrecked my scalp. I now have softened water, and I pair the CeraVe shampoo with L'Oreal's Curl Conditioner or L'Oreal's Restore Conditioner (aka their hard water conditioner) and that's been working very well for me. If I need to clarify every so often, I just shampoo twice with the CeraVe shampoo, and that does the trick. Anywho, I recommend giving this shampoo a shot! Hope it works for you too! And CeraVe.... DO NOT STOP MAKING THIS AND DO NOT CHANGE THE FORMULA.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works great on my Seborrheic dermatitis!
*by K***N on July 19, 2026*

Ive been using CeraVe shampoo & conditioner for about a year now and my Seborrheic dermatitis is almost non-existent. Hair grew back and I only have normal fall out now. I switch back and forth between throughout the week with the regular and the dandruff shampoo. My scalp and hair are healthy and my hair (thick and medium texture) is soft and shinny. Zero fragrance, effective, lathers and cleans really well and very moisturizing. Ive used CeraVe soap and lotions for years and was so happy when they came out with the shampoo line! I highly recommend ALL CeraVe products!
