Which shampoo suits your scalp?

Those looking for a shampoo for an itchy scalp and flakes usually benefit from choosing based on their scalp type rather than just relying on the word anti-dandruff.

For dry flakes

Dry flakes are often smaller, lighter, and fall more easily onto clothes or shoulders. In this case, it's best to choose a purifying shampoo and care specifically formulated for dry scalps, without unduly burdening the scalp.A suitable choice within our range is Oway Purifying Hair Bath - Dry Scalps.

For sensitive, red, or irritated scalps

Does your scalp feel tight, is there redness, or is itching your main complaint? ThenSoothing shampoos for sensitive scalpsmay be more useful than an intensely purifying formula. This way, you support comfort while gently cleansing the scalp.Oway Soothing Hair Bath can be a suitable choice for this. Oway Soothing also aims to reduce irritation and itching.

How to recognize what your scalp needs

• Dry flakes: fine, dry flakes that come off easily
• Oily flakes: flakes that stick more to hair or scalp
• Mainly itching and sensitivity: a tingling, red, or restless feeling without pronounced oily flaking
