Q: Condition shampoo be used on a daily use

submitted by MT41 - 2 months ago
  • A: Is this recommended for teens or older children?

    submitted byMari - 8 days ago
  • A: Hello MT41. Great question! CeraVe Oil Control Gentle Scalp Care Shampoo 12 fl oz For Coily & All Hair Types can be used everyday. While the formula is gentle enough for daily use, those with coily hair may still prefer to follow up with a rich conditioner or a leave-in treatment to ensure the hair shafts remain hydrated, as coily textures often require more moisture than straighter hair types. We hope this information is helpful and that you can use our products with great success!

Q: Is this a clarifying shampoo?

submitted by Waxy scalp - 6 days ago
  • A: Hello Waxy scalp. The CeraVe Oil Control Gentle Scalp Care Shampoo is best described as a balancing daily shampoo with clarifying properties, rather than a traditional heavy-duty clarifying shampoo. While it effectively purifies the scalp and removes excess oil—two primary functions of a clarifying product—it is specifically formulated to be gentle enough for daily use, which distinguishes it from traditional clarifying shampoos that are typically used only once a week to strip away extreme product buildup. We hope this information is helpful and you can use our products with great success!

    Incredible

    For years I have had oily hair. I used to just wash my hair daily and it was fine, but we moved and have hard water and a softener but it's been terrible on my hair! I have been having more issues with oiliness and I have tried so many different things. Decided to give this a shot and after just one use my hair isn't oily!! I washed it last night, worked all day, came home and it's completely fine! It's seriously a miracle shampoo. Obviously I haven't used it long enough to be able to tell if it'll be harsh on my scalp. Time will tell, but at this rate I don't need to wash daily.

    So good

    It delivers a superior level of cleanliness without compromising the health of the hair. It is a highly recommended shampoo for its effortless rinsing and its ability to provide a light, airy weight to the hair, offering a reliable and balanced solution for everyday scalp maintenance. It has a clean, subtle and professional scent because it is more focused on manageability and lightweight weight.

    Great, for only for some.

    The shampoo was very gentle with my scalp, and I experience little to no oil rebounding. My scalp and hair were noticably less dry and much more hydrated, but it took a while to adjust to the slight itching now and then. It does have a bit of residue, which you will need to clean thoroughly, especially if you use the conditioner too. It adds more volume and makes your hair much more easier to style.

    Best Oil control shampoo

    I suffer a lot from oily skin and hair so I have to look for products that help me with my problem a few weeks ago I was buying this shampoo that I promised and in my experience I was surprised. It is very easy to apply and we already know that cerave products are always very well designed. I loved that the product has no smell and the consistency is very light precisely for the problem you need to treat. The hair is not dry or anything like that even though it is for the control of oil in the hair it leaves your hair my shiny and with that feeling of a hair not heavy and super clean!

    Perfect for oily hair

    If you have very oil hair, this shampoo is perfect for it. Irme rinses out very easy. Leaves no residue, and doesn’t make your hair stiff. It has a light, soft texture and no strong scent which I really liked. Plus the bottle is quite large, so it lasts for a long time if you know how to use it efficiently.

    Fresh, clean hair without the dryness!

    I’m obsessed with how this shampoo leaves my scalp feeling so fresh and balanced, the consistency is perfect and it’s functionality is top-notch because it removes oil without stripping my hair. I used 2 time per week frequency has made such a difference in how long my hair stays clean. The sensation is lightweight and I love that the ingredients include ceramides to keep everything hydrated. It’s definitely a must have for my routine

    I’ve try many and this one is my favorite

    I’ve been using CeraVe Oil Control Balancing Shampoo for a week, and I’m really impressed with how well it works. I have an oily scalp and usually feel heaviness by the end of the day, but that as completely changed with this shampoo. It cleans super well without leaving my hair dry or rough. I love that it’s completely fragrance-free. After just a few days, I’ve noticed my roots are less oily, my hair feels more balanced, and it actually stays clean for longer.
