How does this shampoo help an itchy, flaky scalp?

The combination of pine tar and tea tree oil targets the sensations and visible flaking associated with dry, irritated scalps.

Will it work on color-treated or sensitive hair?

This formula is designed to be gentle and safe for color-treated hair while avoiding many common irritants. It is free from sulfates, parabens, phthalates, silicones, and artificial fragrances, lowering the risk of fading or added scalp sensitivity.
