Published 2021 Jul 27. doi:10.3390/molecules26154535 Menthol and apple cider vinegar get right to work calming irritation and exfoliating the scalp, leaving behind a tingling feeling as a telltale sign that they’re working. Its other benefits—like promoting hair growth through niacinamide and red flower extract—may take a little longer to see, but we’re in it for the long run. And although it only contains 0.25% of salicylic acid (a relatively low amount), the BHA still works so well with the naturally acidic apple cider vinegar to deep-clean the hair, balance the pH of your scalp, and rid it of dandruff. Salicylic acid is one ingredient found in over-the-counter (OTC) dandruff shampoos. It can help get rid of flakes while also moisturizing a dry scalp. You can use the shampoo for seasonal dandruff, or on a regular basis to help maintain your scalp’s moisture levels. Seborrheic dermatitis In addition to exfoliating the scalp with salicylic acid, it also contains glycolic acid, an alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) to slough off dead skin and help the hair retain moisture, hence your shinier tresses. Witch hazel and rose clay act similarly to how they do in your favorite toners in face masks by sopping up oil with their naturally astringent properties. And, you may even see your hair become fuller and more voluminous with the aid of niacinamide and zinc, two ingredients that have been shown to promote hair growth.Regarding skincare and tea tree oil, its most well-known effect is probably being a well established anti-acne ingredient. Multiple studies confirm that TTO is effective against the evil acne-causingbacteria called P. acnes and the effectiveness of 5% TTO gel is comparable to the gold standard anti-acne treatment,5% Benzoyl Peroxidelotion. You need to be a bit more patient with TTO, though, as its effects come slower but also with fewer side effects. Loing E, Lachance R, Ollier V, Hocquaux M.

Mona Gohara, M.D. is a board-certified dermatologist and associate clinical professor of dermatology at Yale School of Medicine. If you took one look at the ingredient list and balked at the idea of using sulfates, hear us out. Gohara recommends this shampoo because she says that the “BHA is steeped in a gentle shampoo surfactant,” known as SLES, which Dr. Rachel Nazarian of Schweiger Dermatology Group previously told us that this kind of sulfate has a much lower rate of irritation than an SLS like sodium lauryl sulfate. Used alongside the high percentage of salicylic acid, the ingredients work beautifully to cast away flakes, dissolve build-up, and mitigate the effects of psoriasis and seborrheic dermatitis. Additionally, it’s free of fragrances, dyes, and PABA — a potentially harmful acid that could cause negative skin reactions. This shampoo is formulated using Salicylic Acid and Tee Tree Oil, which work together to exfoliate and refresh the hair and scalp, leaving it cleansed and oil-free. Piroctone Olamine is an intense clarifying agent, which helps to remove bacterial and fungal cultures to refresh and balance the scalp further. Betaine provides an anti-static covering, which prevents hair from frizzing whilst Panthenol improves hair strength and gently softens it, enhancing manageability. Sulphate-free. Cruelty-free & vegan-friendly.

Taylor initially steered us toward this shampoo for those experiencing hair loss, and after seeing its natural formula and sustainable manufacturing practices, we were sold on the idea of using it. In addition to salicylic acid, the formula leans on multi-talented ingredients that simultaneously remove oil buildup and result in more voluminous hair. Ginseng and turmeric, for example, have not only been shown to promote hair growth, but they also boast anti-inflammatory properties that quell itchy skin. Lactic acid is another star player that gently breaks down pore-clogging dirt, opens the follicle up to new growth, and boosts vibrancy. While the formula doesn’t contain a super high percentage of salicylic acid, this shampoo still does a stellar job of vanquishing flakes as it works in tandem with niacinamide to refresh skin and reduce flakiness. What’s more, thanks to its inclusion of antioxidants and anti-inflammatory ingredients such as limonene, you could finally find relief from irritated skin. How exactly? Well, the beta hydroxy acid (BHA) is an oil-soluble acid that loosens clumps of dead skin, which, yes sounds gross, but also makes it extremely effective at cleansing the scalp of dirt, dry skin, and product build-up that leads to dandruff and irritation. It’s even recommended by the National Psoriasis Foundation as a first-rate therapy for treating the itchy, red scaly patches symptomatic of this condition.One suggestion: You may need to put in a little more elbow grease to work up a rich foam, but we promise the formula delivers as promised.
