Shea Moisture Aloe Butter Scalp Moisture Shampoo 13 oz / 384 ml - For Dry Scalp & Less Breakage
Coily and tightly curled hair spends most of the month in styles that do not get washed often, and the scalp is usually where that shows first. Tight, dry and uncomfortable by the time wash day comes round. This shampoo is built for that scalp rather than for the lengths.
Aloe butter is the reason. It is richer than aloe gel and stays on the scalp through the wash, so the skin feels comfortable afterwards instead of squeaky. The cleansing side is gentle. It clears product build-up and the oil that collects under a style, without taking every bit of moisture with it.
- Lifts build-up from weeks of creams, oils and gels
- Leaves the scalp feeling soft rather than tight
- Keeps enough moisture in the hair to reduce snapping while you detangle
- Fine to use on the same day as a deep conditioner
One practical note. Wash in sections if your hair is long or dense, and get your fingertips onto the scalp rather than piling the hair up on top of your head. A scalp shampoo only works where it lands, and the crown is where most people miss. A 13 oz / 384 ml bottle covers a good few months at that rate.
Made for type 3b through 4c textures.

Application tips
Getting dense hair wet right through takes longer than most people allow for, so start there. Apply along the partings and work it in with your fingertips, then let the run-off take care of the lengths.
Do a second wash if the hair has been in a style for weeks. Leave detangling until the conditioner goes on, rather than fighting knots while the shampoo is still in.
Results
Weeks of oils, creams and gel come away, and the scalp is left comfortable rather than stripped bare.
Enough moisture stays in the hair that the detangling stage afterwards costs fewer strands. Coily textures feel softer wet, and the first pass of the comb tells you whether the wash worked. Nothing squeaks, which for this hair type is the point.
