True+RealCoal Tar Therapeutic Tar Gel Anti-Dandruff Shampoo 1% Coal Tar, 6 Ounce

True+Real Coal Tar Therapeutic Shampoo is an effective and affordable option for those suffering from persistent scalp conditions such as psoriasis, seborrheic dermatitis, or severe dandruff. Its active ingredient, 0.5% coal tar (equivalent to 2% in other formulations), has been clinically proven to reduce flaking, relieve itching, and decrease inflammation.From the first application, you can notice a significant reduction in itching and dryness, and with consistent use (2 to 3 times per week, as directed), your scalp begins to look healthier, with fewer visible flakes. It also has an easy-to-apply texture and lathers well enough to distribute evenly.As with most coal tar shampoos, its scent is somewhat strong and distinctive, but this is to be expected with a therapeutic product of this nature. Some people may also notice a temporary darkening of light or color-treated hair, so it is recommended to rinse well and alternate with a cosmetic shampoo if desired.Highlights:✔ Effectively relieves itching and flaking.✔ Good value.✔ Dermatologically approved formula.What could be improved:✘ Strong, medicinal scent.✘ Can dry out hair if not used with an appropriate conditioner.✘ Not recommended for prolonged daily use without medical advice.Conclusion:True+Real Coal Tar Therapeutic Shampoo is an excellent alternative for those looking to effectively manage scalp conditions without overspending. Ideal for intermittent treatments and as part of a dermatologically supervised routine.

Works very well for dandruff itchiness/flakes. It is somewhat expensive though and the bottle is small. It also has a strong smell unique to the tar, but I got used to it. I bought a similar tar dandruff shampoo from Amazon Essentials with a higher concentration and it had the same smell. That shampoo was too watery though. This was better so I'm probably going to stick with this unless I can find a cheaper alternative.

Really good stuff. Works as good as Neutrogena T-Gel (which has been discontinued for over a year now.) This is really not an anti-dandruff shampoo folks. It works for dermatitis and seborrhea....

Pretty close dupe for nutrogena

Great shampoo, a perfect replacement for the popular name brand that was discontinued. This one smells and feels just like it and seems to work exactly as well.

I bought this because for the first time in my life this year, I've had intense burning, itching, and dry scalp. My hair was falling out like crazy. To the point I was vacuuming every day. I had to throw my pj's in the dryer after sleeping all night. Vacuum my side of the bed. I used this with another shampoo and left it on my scalp for 5 minutes before rinsing. It did burn a little but my husband has used it before and said it does burn or tingle the first use. Today I used it again with tea tree oil and peppermint oil. I left it on 5 minutes and rinsed it and it feels so calm on my scalp. No burning no itching no tingling. I feel so relaxed for the first time in months. I'm using this along with the Berk's shampoo that has Rosemary in it with some other ingredients. I will shampoo every day for a week and then every other day. Hopefully then I can shampoo only once a week. I'm hopeful this will work. 2nd use and already feeling better.

Not sure how this product works yet but as soon as i opened it the top was completely broken and put back on backwards so Ive been struggling to put it back on to where its a normal easy to use cap.

One of the best products that my daughter has used for her rediculously thick scalp psoriasis. She used it consistently for a month, sparingly the next couple months, but hasn't had to use it for the last 3 months and has had zero flakes. She loves dying her hair which always worsened her spots and she is still dying it with no reaction. Use as directed and you will see results!
