Pete & Pedro CLEAN Deep-Cleansing Shampoo 8.5 oz — Tea Tree & Peppermint for Oily Hair and Dandruff

Pete & Pedro CLEAN is a deep-cleansing peppermint and tea tree oil shampoo designed to remove excess oil, reduce flaking, and leave hair feeling refreshed.

Formulated for daily use, CLEAN combines tea tree oil’s clarifying properties with peppermint’s invigorating sensation to lift grime and soothe the scalp. The shampoo creates a rich lather that targets oily roots and visible dandruff without heavy silicones. While it’s paraben-free and energizing, it is not color-safe—so color-treated hair may require a gentler, color-formulated option.

How does CLEAN remove oil and buildup from my hair?

The formula uses tea tree oil as a natural clarifier to break down sebum and residue, while cleansing surfactants lift that debris into the lather for easy rinsing. Peppermint supports circulation and leaves a cool, clean sensation so you feel the scalp is truly refreshed. Regular use helps reduce greasy appearance between washes.

• Tea tree oil targets excess oil and scalp flaking.
• Rich lather and effective surfactants remove product residue.
• Peppermint provides an invigorating, cooling feel.
• Daily-use formulation for frequent washing.

Will CLEAN help with dandruff and scalp flaking?

CLEAN contains tea tree oil, known for its antimicrobial and soothing properties that can help reduce visible flakes and irritation when used consistently. It isn’t a medicated anti-dandruff treatment, but many users notice fewer flakes and less itchy scalp after regular use. For persistent dandruff, pair with specialized scalp treatments or consult a dermatologist.

• Tea tree helps address flaking and mild dandruff signs.
• Gentle enough for daily use for many users.
• Not a substitute for medicated dandruff shampoos for severe cases.

How should I use CLEAN for best results?

Apply shampoo to wet hair, work into a rich lather focusing on the scalp, and leave on for 2–3 minutes to let active ingredients work before rinsing thoroughly. For heavy oiliness, repeat once. Follow with a lightweight conditioner or Pete & Pedro Condition to restore moisture without weighing hair down.

• Wet hair, apply a coin-sized amount to scalp, lather well.
• Allow 2–3 minutes for tea tree and peppermint to activate.
• Rinse completely and condition mid-lengths to ends.
• Use daily or as needed for oily hair.

Is CLEAN suitable for color-treated or sensitive scalps?

CLEAN is paraben-free but labeled not color-safe, so it may fade hair color faster than color-protect formulas. The peppermint scent and tea tree can be stimulating, which many find refreshing, but those with very sensitive scalps should patch-test or choose a milder, fragrance-free alternative. For colored hair, alternate with a color-safe shampoo.

• Not recommended as a primary shampoo for color-treated hair.
• Paraben-free formulation.
• Patch test if you have a very sensitive scalp.

Who is this for: Pete & Pedro CLEAN is aimed at men and women who regularly battle greasy roots, want an invigorating shower experience, and need a dependable daily clarifying shampoo. It’s ideal for those with oil-prone scalps, mild flaking, or anyone seeking a powerful, peppermint-scented deep clean. If you have chemically treated or very dry hair, consider alternating CLEAN with gentler, color-safe or moisturizing shampoos.
