How does this shampoo address dry, itchy scalp?

This shampoo combines pine tar’s traditional skin-soothing profile with tea tree oil’s clarifying properties to calm discomfort and reduce the feeling of dryness. The result is a cleansing yet moisturizing wash that targets scalp surface buildup while helping skin feel less tight and irritated.

• Contains 100% plant-based pine tar for gentle surface care.
• Tea tree oil supports a refreshed, clarified scalp feel.
• Rich white lather removes residue without over-drying.
• Free from harsh sulfates and parabens to preserve scalp oils.

Will this work for all hair types and textures?
