Q: Does this conditioner help with the dandruff?

submitted by Bel - 5 months ago
  • A: Hello Bel! Thank you for asking about our Gentle Scalp Care Conditioner. Our Gentle Scalp Care Conditioner is designed to provide hydration and comfort to the scalp and hair, helping to moisturize and detangle without irritating sensitive scalps. It contains essential ceramides to help restore the skin barrier, and hyaluronic acid to attract moisture. While this conditioner is excellent for maintaining a healthy, hydrated scalp and hair, it is not specifically formulated as a dandruff treatment. For concerns related to dandruff, we offer dedicated products in our range that are specifically designed with active ingredients to help address and alleviate dandruff symptoms.

    LOST SO MUCH HAIR

    This conditioner (and the shampoo that goes with it) caused so much hair loss!!! It's the only thing I changed in my routine, so I know these were the culprits. Please believe me that it was the worst thing I could have tried for my already-thin-hair because now I have to try and grow out everything that I lost this past month using this line. Hair loss was traumatic. I do not recommend!!!!!!

    Super detangling and hydrating

    My hair is super picky, super frustrating. It does not like protein hair products. This conditioner totally refreshed my hair. I did a clarifying shampoo and then did this and I’m never going back. Texture is smooth and makes my hair feel very hydrated like I did a hair mask. It’s detangling. Get ittt

    Lightweight, fragrance free conditioner

    This is an amazing and affordable conditioner. It hydrates the hair without causing buildup and feels lightweight. It’s fragrance free, specially for sensitive scalp. However, if you have very dry or curly hair, you might need something more moisturizing.

    Soft and smooth hair

    CeraVe hydrating conditioner has been working really good in my medium length, wavy hair. It is hydrating and leaves my hair feeling soft and smooth. I love that my hair is easy to brush through after showering. It rinses out easy and the packaging is very nice. Reallg grest to use with matching shampoo.

    CeraVe the Best 😍😍💙💙🧴

    It is a delight—it has a lovely scent, feels incredibly fresh, and lasts a very long time. The packaging is easy to use, and it rinses off just as easily. I highly recommend it; I absolutely loved it, and it truly delivers on its promises. 100% recommended! 😍😍😍

    Great formula

    Surprisingly good, no wonder it’s an Allure beauty winner. Love that it’s unscented, when going through ivf or if you’re in the fertility industry around sensitive embryos, this is an affordable alternative to more expensive fragrance free brands.

    Enjoyed it!

    As someone that likes to change conditioners very often, I absolutely love this one. It leaves my hair smooth, hydrated, and shiny. My scalp is oily, but my ends are dry and breakage-prone. This conditioner does a wonderful job hydrating my ends, and making them smooth. The conditioner isn’t too thick, but also not too thin, it’s the perfect consistency. Definitely recommend!

    Dependable daily pick

    I use it paired with their shampoo. It is awesome for restoring moisture without weighing hair down. But I don't use it very often bz I'm lazy. The texture is a tad runny, rinse clean. Good for minimalist

    Great duo with the Gentle Shampoo! Recommend to an

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using this with the gentle shampoo by Cera Ve and together they are perfect products for sensitive skin/scalp. My scalp is on the drier side and my hair is prone to dryness so a good conditioner is a must! This conditioner is rich and creamy and effective! It leaves my hair looking clean and fresh and super soft. It’s very moisturizing! It has a nice lather, and a little drop goes a long way. On point with all the Cera Ve products I have used, you know what you are getting - a simple yet effective product.

    Perfect for sensitive skin

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great conditioner. It leaves your hair feeling soft while not irritating your scalp. It’s a great alternative if you have sensitive skin and you’re looking for a product that does not aggravate your skin further.

    Lightweight hair and so soft!

    The best conditioner I have ever used! I've been on the hunt for a while for one that makes my hair silky soft and lightweight and this is it! No scent which is nice, and doesn't dry out your hair or scalp. Will absolutely be my go to from now on. Can be difficult to find in stores sometimes.

    Nice!

    I’m allergic to fragrance so it’s hard to find hair products. This gets the job done. It’s thick so the tube packaging is necessary. Great value compared to my other options.

    Seb Derm Approved

    I have struggled with Seb Derm most of my life. Last year I started using this in combination with an anti-fungal shampoo and it has made a world of difference! I was concerned about the drying effects of my medicated shampoo, but this conditioner honestly does a great job of negating those. Even in the arid desert, I feel like my hair is healthy and soft. It has an easy to spread consistency and I use it after every shampoo wash. I started out only putting it on the ends of my hair, but eventually got brave and put it on my entire head which I prefer. I still don't feel greasy or icky, and it doesn't irritate my scalp or trigger my seb derm which is honestly the ultimate goal.

    Simple medium thickness conditioner. Good for fine hair.

    I bought this with my own money. This conditioner has a nice medium thickness without feeling too heavy. I have fine hair and this works well with it. I like the sillicones they use. It doesn't leave my hair silky or shiney, but definitely less tangled and more manageable. I like that it's fragrance free.

    Contains Chlorahexadine! Made my hair fallout

    It’s absolutely awful this product contains Chlorahexadine, a known chemical irritant to those sensitive to chemicals. This conditioner made my hair fallout and my head to develop painful lesions. I have always trusted CeraVe, but adding chemicals like Chlorahexadine to a product used by those with chemical sensitivities defies logic and reason. It is totally unnecessary
