Geologie - Moisturizing Dandruff Shampoo

Hero Ingredients: These are the key players that fight flakes and provide moisture.

Pyrithione Zinc (1%): This is the FDA-approved active ingredient that makes this a true dandruff shampoo. It has powerful properties that help to control the growth of the specific yeast and fungus on the scalp that are the primary cause of dandruff and its symptoms.

Coconut Oil: A rich source of fatty acids that provides excellent moisture. It helps to condition the hair and soothe a dry, irritated scalp, combating the dryness that can come with some dandruff treatments.

Glycerin: A simple and effective humectant that draws moisture into the hair and scalp, helping to keep everything hydrated, balanced, and comfortable after washing.

This is a hair and scalp product ideal for anyone experiencing dandruff, scalp itchiness, or flaking. Because of its moisturizing and sulfate-free formula, it's suitable for all hair types, from straight to curly, and is gentle enough for those with a dry or sensitive scalp.

Effectively Controls Dandruff: The 1% Pyrithione Zinc helps to eliminate the scalp fungus that causes flaking and itching.

Soothes the Scalp: Calms irritation and relieves the discomfort associated with a dry, flaky scalp.

Moisturizes Hair and Scalp: Unlike many harsh dandruff shampoos, this formula hydrates your hair, leaving it feeling soft, not stripped.

Sulfate-Free Cleansing: Gently cleanses away oil and flakes without the use of harsh detergents that can worsen dryness.

For best results, use at least twice a week or as directed by a doctor.

Step 1: Wet your hair thoroughly.

Step 2: Squeeze a generous amount of shampoo into your palm and work it into a rich lather.

Step 3 (Important Tip): Focus on massaging the shampoo directly onto your scalp with your fingertips. Let the lather sit on your scalp for 2-3 minutes. This gives the active ingredient, Pyrithione Zinc, time to work.

Step 4: Rinse thoroughly. Repeat if desired.

This product contains an active anti-dandruff ingredient and fragrance. While formulated to be gentle, sensitivities are always possible.

The 2nd's Recommendation: For external use only. If you have a history of very sensitive skin, it's always wise to do a patch test before regular use.

This shampoo is a great solution because it treats dandruff effectively without wrecking your hair. Many guys associate dandruff shampoos with that harsh, medicinal feeling, but this one feels like a high-quality, moisturizing shampoo that also happens to eliminate flakes. Especially here in New York, the summer humidity can sometimes make scalp issues worse, and this is a great way to keep things calm and clear. Remember to let it sit on your scalp for a couple of minutes before rinsing to get the full benefit.

A fresh and clean scent with subtle notes of mint and citrus that smells refreshing but not overpowering or medicinal.

How is this different from a regular shampoo?
A regular shampoo is designed only to clean your hair and scalp. This is a treatment shampoo. It contains an active ingredient (Pyrithione Zinc) specifically included to control the microbe that is the root cause of dandruff.

Is this better than a harsh drugstore dandruff shampoo?
While many drugstore brands are effective, they often use harsh sulfates that can strip your hair and scalp of all natural oils, leaving your hair feeling like straw. Geologie's formula is sulfate-free and includes moisturizing ingredients like coconut oil, so it fights dandruff while also keeping your hair soft and hydrated.

How long will it take for my dandruff to go away?
You should start to see a reduction in flaking and itching after just a few uses. For best results, use it consistently as directed for several weeks. Once your dandruff is under control, you can often maintain a clear scalp by using it once or twice a week.
