Dr. Paltas Anti-Dandruff Shampoo for Itchy, Flaky Scalp & Healthy Hair 250ml/8.45 oz
Most flake shampoos clean too hard. They deal with the scalp and leave the lengths dry and squeaky, which is a trade nobody should have to make. This one keeps the cleansing honest while the working ingredients do their job at the roots.
The contact point is the scalp, so the two or three minutes you spend massaging matter more than anything else in the routine. Zinc pyrithione and salicylic acid are the active pair, the second loosening flakes already sitting on the surface. Tea tree leaf oil and peppermint oil bring the cool, clean feel, and panthenol, glycerin and hydrolysed wheat protein keep the hair soft afterwards.
- Lifts visible flakes and cools the feel of an itchy scalp
- Keeps excess oil in check for a fresher scalp
- Cleanses without stripping moisture from the lengths
- Gentle enough for sensitive scalps and any hair type
Start at two or three washes a week and ease off once things settle. 250ml / 8.45 oz.

Application tips
Part the hair and apply straight to the skin in rows rather than pouring it over the top.
Massage with the pads of your fingers, never nails, then leave it in place while you wash the rest of you. Rinse thoroughly, twice if your hair is long. On dry lengths, follow with a conditioner from the ears down so the scalp stays clear and the ends do not go rough.
Results
The scalp feels clean and cool for hours afterwards, and the tight, itchy feeling that builds between washes eases off.
Visible flakes lift with the rinse instead of reappearing on a collar by lunchtime. Hair keeps its softness because the cleansing stops short of stripping, so the lengths do not pay for what the scalp needs.
