    My Fiancé was struggling with dandruff for a while and for the past 2 years he had been using normal dandruff shampoos but the problem started to worsen recently. He was trying everything he could. I always loved CeraVe’s face products and when I saw this one, I knew he had to try it. This is the least amount of dandruff either of us have seen from him!! Dealing with dandruff can really affect your confidence but now his hair is better than even before. I highly recommend this product if you struggle with dandruff. He only had to use it a few times before seeing results.

    DO NOT USE - CAUSES MASSIVE HAIR LOSS

    DO NOT USE CERAVE'S HAIR CARE PRODUCTS. I lost half my head of hair from using this and the conditioner, giant clumps of my hair would fall out every time I ran my fingers through it, my bathtub was filled with clumps of my hair, and my hair has been noticeably thinner ever since. I switched back to head & shoulders and the loss has slowed. This product SUCKS.

    This product seemed alright for a week or so when I began to use it. After about 3 weeks I began to develop small boils on the scalp. I’ve never been able to find a good shampoo and need to use a dermatologist prescribed shampoo but I needed something else in between the days. I I had the worst reaction to this shampoo out of many I have tried and they surprised me because their face products and lotions work so well for me. If you have sensitive skin or fine hair I wouldn't recommend this.

    I happened to see that CeraVe came out with an anti dandruff shampoo and was really interested in trying it out, since I adore and use many of their other products daily. My hair has changed quite a bit...aging. Finer but still healthy. Shampoos that say hydrating usually weigh my air down and styling is a nightmare. While washing my hair with this new shampoo I was a bit concerned as it rinsed out that it didn't feel like it was all out. I followed up with the regular CeraVe conditioner and not the anti-dandruff one, and it was so nice. Anyway, my fears were gone once I started styling my hair!! It felt like I had gone to the salon! Clean, shiny and bouncy! I have scalp psoriasis, so I'm hoping this will help as I continue to use it. I should have never doubted my beloved CeraVe with how wonderful this product is!

    I love the CeraVe 2-in-1 Anti-Dandruff Shampoo and Conditioner! It effectively eliminates dandruff and keeps my hair soft, not dry. The texture is great, but the cap design makes it prone to getting dirty, which is a minor issue. Overall, it’s a fantastic product, and I highly recommend it for anyone dealing with dandruff!

    When I say I spent hundreds of dollars on scalp treatments in my postpartum years, I mean it and literally nothing worked. Fellow Moms, if you’ve ever been in a position where your scalp feels like it’s on fire. It can be one of the most debilitating things to suffer and this was the holy Grail product I was looking for. Sincerely, I will live and die by this shampoo and will use nothing else. Thank you, smart CeraVe scientists for your impeccable product.

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] CeraVe Antidandruff Hydrating Shampoo effectively targets dandruff while nourishing the scalp and hair. Formulated with active ingredients like pyrithione zinc, it helps reduce flakes and soothe irritation. Since using it, my hair feels much more hydrated, soft, and manageable. Its hydrating properties, thanks to ceramides and hyaluronic acid, leave hair moisturized without stripping. Gentle enough for daily use, it’s a great choice for balanced, healthy hair. Highly recommended!

    I've suffered from Seborrheic dermatitis since I was in Jr. High. I'm not well into adulthood. I used to use coal tar shampoo but it just stunk way too bad. On a whim, I decided to try dandruff shampoo. Surprisingly, it worked! I've been using the well known dandruff shampoo and conditioner for years. They recently discontinued the line I had been using. I tried their minimalist line and it was just OK. I would like if they had a conditioner to see if it would be better. I've been a user of CeraVe for years as well. When I saw this line, I was intrigued. I love the fact that it's paraben and sulfate free. After the first wash and condition, I was sold. My hair is super soft, I have hardly any frizz, and the spots on my scalp seem to be getting smaller. I'm also not getting as itchy of a scalp as I had with the other name brand. Please do not get rid of this line. It's wonderful!
