Great for my itchy oily scalp, wonderful design
It took me the 2nd use to realize that the bottle is designed to dispense without removing the cap. You just slightly turn the cap and the tiny opening in the middle will unseal for you to easily squeeze out product. Really thoughtful bottle design. I also loved the packaging, it was very simple, but nice. I got this to try for my itchy, oily scalp. The product seems to be making a difference for me so far. My new shampoo brand

The best fragrance free shampoo with the greatest lather!
I finally found a shampoo that doesn’t irritate my scalp! The lather is great and my hair feels healthy and clean.

Love this shampoo!
It removes sweat, oil, etc without drying my scalp and my hair is thicker and shiny not weighted down. Also doesn’t trigger any allergy breakouts like other shampoos have done in the past. It’s completely unscented; I like to add a tiny amount of their rosemary shampoo just for the shower experience smell.

Best shampoo ever!
I love how squeaky clean my hair feels after washing it with this shampoo. I do not have any itching, dryness or flaking as I have with other shampoos. This shampoo and the Necessaire Rosemary shampoo are the only shampoo I use anymore.
