Doesn't smell nice, harsher than H&S Classic Clean
I prefer fragrance free products but figured Euclytus would be nice. It doesn't smell nice and hair felt stripped when rinshing. Will stick with H&S Classic Clean.

It burns!
The "cooling sensation" listed on the bottle is more like a burning sensation. My hair feels great after using it, but I was in pain the entire time I washed my hair.
From Head & Shoulders team
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with our Head and Shoulders Itchy Scalp Care. We're sorry to hear that the cooling sensation wasn't to your liking. Please know that we strive for all our consumers to have the best experience possible, and we regret that this wasn’t yours. Rest assured, we'll pass your feedback along to our Health and Safety Team, as well as the rest of our Head and Shoulders team. It’s important to mention that these products contain menthol to deliver a cooling and refreshing feeling. This sensation can differ from person to person, ranging from cool to tingling or even warming, but it shouldn't be uncomfortable. If you do experience any discomfort, we recommend rinsing your scalp thoroughly with water and discontinuing use. We’re here to help further if needed. At your convenience, please give us a call at (800) 723-9569 or email us via the Contact Us page.

Tried and did not realize how drying it was.
This was incredibly drying for my 4c hair. I can see using this like every couple months if there's product build up for my hair but it's a hard pass for weekly washings for me.
From Head & Shoulders team
Thank you for leaving this review on our Head and Shoulders Itchy Scalp Care Shampoo. We're sorry to hear your hair felt dry while using this. Hair can look frizzy or dry if it is not conditioned enough. Tips to help with dryness: Try a richer conditioner. Try using a conditioning treatment 2 or 3 times a week. Leave the conditioner on for up to 5 minutes. Use more conditioner on the ends of your hair, which does not get enough of the natural oils from your scalp. Try using a leave-in conditioner instead of one you rinse out. We would like to learn more about this and share this experience with our team. When you have time please give us a call at (800) 723-9569 or send an email through our Contact Us page.

Did the job
Many shampoos over the years have tried and failed to tame my flakes. Got a haircut today, no dandruff she says! Score one for the good guys, and for Head and Shoulders. Also it burns with cold fire the first time you use it. Highly rec.

Works!
My scalp was insanely itchy, and this really helped. Not gonna use it long term, I’m looking for more natural solutions. But this is good for when the itch gets out of control.

Speechless - so effective I'm crying
I don’t usually write reviews because I don’t think anyone actually cares. But this shampoo is magic — it worked in ONE WASH. This past Saturday I went to the Aveda salon to get my hair cut, it’s now Tuesday. I don’t know what she put in my hair, but my scalp has been itching nonstop since that appointment. I literally thought I caught lice from the salon. I’ve even been looking up symptoms online to check if I have lice, my scalp has been so itchy and flaky. But the only one I exhibit is the ITCHY SCALP. So on a whim, I ordered this Head & Shoulders shampoo from Target. I usually use Kristen Ess The One, or Christophe Robin exfoliating scalp scrub. Neither of these shampoos helped my cause. I washed my hair with the Head & Shoulders two hours ago, and my incessant itching is GONE. I’m no longer embarrassingly scratching my scalp as if I’m infested. I was expecting results in maybe weeks, but my god. ONE WASH and I’m cured. I’m a believer. I have straight, glossy, smooth East Asian jet-black hair. Dandruff flakes show up vibrantly in my hair. They’re ALL GONE after one wash. I am a H&S convert.

Strong smell
Purchased Head and Shoulders many times, Target did not have the normal combo I get, so I tried this combo. The smell was very strong and burns my eyes from the stong smell. It works for getting rid of itchy scalp and dandruff, but the smell can be overbearing. Will not be getting this combo again.

Great for a dry itchy scalp
Great product for dry scalp. Had issues my whole life with having a dry scalp and flaking. When in doubt I go back to this brand to get my flakes in check. Smells nice too.

Good shampoo
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Got this to reduce dandruff and it worked well. Easy to use hybrid bottle means less space on the shelf and works well. Would recommend to anyone looking for something similar, trusted name in the space.
