MG217 Psoriasis Shampoo and Conditioner with Salicylic Acid, Therapeutic Scalp Treatment, Softens, Lifts, Removes Scaling, Psoriasis Scalp Treatment, Salicylic Acid Shampoo and Conditioner, 8floz Tube

I love this company’s products and have been using for several years. I need the salicylic acid formula while my husband needs the one with coal tar. So it was quite a surprise when it was much lighter weight than usual. I turned to take a look at the tube and there was a big chunk of the cap missing. I assumed product might have leaked out. Additionally, there was no hole in the cap through which to squeeze the shampoo out. But I requested a return and the replacement arrived today, FAST! I’ve had an issue with very dry hair and often my scalp itched so bad I couldn’t stop scratching once I started. There were bumps on my scalp as well and my husband said they were red and scaly. After using this product once, after a 6 month hiatus, my scalp was much improved! No more itching at all and the bumps were gone after shampooing twice. Not bad! This shampoo rocks! I use a leave in conditioner & detangler but my hair was noticeably less dry without it. I love this stuff and won’t be without it for so long ever again. My husband sings similar praise for the coal tar formula. So if you suffer from issues like mine or severe dandruff, dry scalp & itch, I definitely recommend giving one of these a try. I think you’ll appreciate the quick results just as I do.

At first I was not sure about the shampoo and conditioner. Other's I have used left my hair feeling either super oily or super dry. With my scalp Psoriasis I am super sensitive to the flakes and itching. I have now been using this for 3 months and use it 3 times a week. I have way less itching on the scalp. I still style my hair like normal or just leave as is. For my budget this has been great.

It smells like dog flea shampoo , but my hair is soft

works

did not work, smell terrible

I have been suffering from an intensely itchy scalp and horrible dandruff for 25+ years. I have fought it down with other products over the years, but it has never gone away, nor has the constant itching. In the past 2-3 years, it has gotten significantly worse and I would claw at my scalp until it bled, sometimes even waking up at night to scratch it, and my shoulders constantly looked like I lived in the Arctic. To say I was desperate for some relief was an understatement. And yes, I have tried nearly every product on the market that claims to relieve dandruff and itching, including making some of my own.Then I heard from a friend of a friend about this product. I was skeptical, because I've used coal tar and salicylic acid products before with minimal to no results, even ones with the same strength & ingredients... but when you're desperate, you'll try anything! Well when I went to order it, I realized there were two different MG217 shampoos - one with coal tar and one with salicylic acid. I wasn't sure which one my friend had used, so I got them both. For the first week, I washed my hair every day (I'm not usually an every day washer) with BOTH products - first with the salicylic acid wash, followed immediately with the coal tar shampoo, leaving both in for 5-10 minutes and then finishing with a regular conditioner. Overkill? Maybe, but it worked! After only 2 washes, my itching and dandruff was GREATLY reduced. After a week, it was nearly gone, and after 2 weeks, there was no more itching AT ALL and almost no dandruff!! I was so used to constantly scratching my scalp, that I had to keep reminding myself I didn't need to scratch because it didn't itch! Now, after about 2 months, all my itching and dandruff is GONE - COMPLETELY!!! People, I can't even begin to tell you what a miracle this is. I now only use one or the other of the two shampoos about every other wash, with regular shampoo on the days I'm not using the MG217 products and have always used regular conditioner.And NO, I have NOT received any free products, nor am I being paid to review them, although they should because they were so life changing for me that I would shout their praises from the roof tops! I am just a really grateful customer and wish I would have known about these shampoos YEARS ago.The cons: Really there's only 1 - the coal tar solution stinks to high heaven. As in, your hair will smell like freshly laid asphalt in the hot, Georgia summer. But is that any less embarrassing than clawing at your head in public like you're infested with lice and not being able to wear any dark colors because of the constant snowstorm of dandruff? Didn't think so. Plus, you won't need to use them daily for long because they are so effective. So don't let the smell deter you if you really want to solve your itching and dandruff problems.BOTTOM LINE - If you haven't already purchased one or both of these shampoos, then you must not be serious about wanting to get rid of your dandruff & itching. And also, good. Save these products for me, because I'm a customer for life!!

Works for me to control dandruff. I use a conditioner to cover its scent.

Got wrong version last time. Helped my scab on forhead. Bit read now.
