Excellent shampoo for dandruff and beautiful hair :)
Excellent sulfate free for dandruff yet still an awesome shampoo for long hair! So glad I found it at Target. Same excellent product you get straight from the company’s website for a fraction of the price.

Music to our (flake-free) ears! So glad you're loving it. And yes, same science-backed magic, just easier to grab during your Target run. Thanks for the love!

This is the first shampoo that I have found that works. It’s thick and doesn’t lather but I have gotten better and applying it. I was so excited when Target started carrying it, but looks like it’s going away. I will have to order direct now which is a bummer due to cost and shipping.

So glad you found your go-to—and even more glad it’s been working for you! The good news? We’re not going anywhere at Target. We’re making some subtle packaging updates, and they’re making shelf space for the glow-up in a few weeks. Thanks for being on this journey with us!

Hair loss
I tried this shampoo about 2 years ago and while it helped my dandruff, I noticed I was losing a lot of hair. I thought it was due to my low iron but just in case I switched off it it. Now that my iron is back in normal range I decided to try it again and same thing, my hair loss has increased, like a lot. I also noticed that by day 2/3 after washing, I smell my natural scalp oils making me having to wash my hair more. Sad because this is the only dandruff shampoo they has given me 0 flakes but hair loss is a deal breaker.

A MUST
Absolutely adore this shampoo. I have microlocs and my scalp gets real itchy by day 3 with other shampoos but with this shampoo I’m on week 1 and only have minimal to no itchy scalp. Side note: was using ASIAM scalp scare but they changed the formula taking zinc out, so I am glad I found this one!

Hair salon quality
Bought this on a whim because I love Dove dandruff shampoo and Head and Shoulders shampoo for the dandruff side of things but they both make my hair so dry. This shampoo smells like the Aveda rosemary shampoo and does a great job clearing dandruff/buildup while making your hair smooth and healthy. I use the conditioner and also a Trader Joe’s shea butter mask for my dry ends. I have gotten a ton of compliments about my hair looking so nice since I switched to this shampoo so I’d recommend it! Definitely a better price than any professional shampoo and I think it performs similar to any shampoo I’ve purchased at the hair salon. Recommend!

Dandruff shampoo
Honestly I thought I would like this product when I read about it but it was terrible my hair never actually felt clean after I used it and there was no change with the dandruff what so ever for the price and the little bottle it comes it, I’d recommend not buying. It won’t do your hair any good. I used it for a while too thinking it just needed to be used longer but no if anything made the dandruff worse. Not worth your money!

Our team would love to help you troubleshoot or make things right through our Flake-Free Guarantee™. Sometimes a tweak here or there to your routine makes all the difference in your results.

AMAZING
If I could give this item 1, million stars I would. I have struggled all my life with severe dandruff. Nothing and I mean nothing would ever work on me until I found this. It works instantly. I want to thank the people personally whoever ever made this product how it saved my life. I feel so much more confident. Thank you!!!!!

Does not lather very well, after 2/3 shampoo's each shower, daily. Waste of product for the cost. Have not seen a change.
1 reply from Jupiter team - 3 months ago
Hi Jo, we’re sorry to hear your experience has been less than stellar so far. Jupiter’s formulas are designed to cleanse gently yet effectively, without the harsh sulfates that typically create lather (but also strip your scalp). We know it can feel different at first, especially if you’re used to traditional shampoos. That said, you should absolutely see results, and if you haven’t, we’d love the chance to help. Our Flake-Free Guarantee has your back, reach out to our team of scalp health experts directly via support@hellojupiter.com and we’ll make it right. Because we believe scalp care should work AND feel worth it. Thanks for your feedback, we're here to help.

NOT GOOD FOR SEB DERM
I like the smell and think its fine as an overall shampoo. It may also be good for just a dry scalp, but with ingredients like coconut oil and safflower oil, it will not help with seb derm. Mine got worse and as I learned more about malessezia, I took a closer look at the ingredients and saw coconut oil. That feeds the fungus!
1 reply from Jupiter team - 4 months ago
Thank you for sharing your experience, we truly appreciate your feedback. Our formulas are dermatologist-tested and clinically proven to help with dandruff and flaking from seborrheic dermatitis, but we know every scalp is unique. You’re right that using raw coconut oil directly on the scalp can sometimes worsen seb derm symptoms—but when used in a professionally formulated product like ours, it’s carefully balanced with other ingredients to nourish without feeding yeast or irritation. We’re sorry this wasn’t the right fit for you and truly appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback.

BEST dandruff shampoo ever!
I have used so many different dandruff shampoos that just don’t work for my stubborn scalp. This is hands down the BEST one! It keeps my scalp flake free and works just as well now as it did when I first started using it 2 years ago. It’s also suitable for colored hair. So glad Target started carrying this brand and at an affordable price!

Two years flake-free? Now that’s what we call a long-term relationship. So glad our Balancing Shampoo’s working its magic. Thanks for trusting us (and thrilled you found us at Target!).

So great!
This one of THE best dandruff shampoos out there! I suffer from seborrheic dermatitis and have struggled to find a good shampoo that didn’t smell heavily medicated and didn’t dry my hair out and that actually worked. This not only keeps my scalp dandruff and itch free, but it also keeps my hair feeling and smelling “normal.” I also noticed a difference after the first try!
1 reply from Jupiter Team team - 5 months ago
Thanks so much for sharing your experience with seborrheic dermatitis and how Jupiter’s made a difference. We created the cleanest dandruff brand on the planet precisely for this: real relief without that heavy medicated scent or the straw-like hair tradeoff. Just effective, derm-backed care that works. Here’s to first-try wins, flake-free confidence, and feeling like yourself again. 💫

Results within the first use!
I’ve been trying different “anti-dandruff” shampoos and I’ve gotten great results from the first time using this. I let it sit on my scalp for about 3 minutes, then I use the “dry scalp care” shampoo (also from Jupiter) after. As soon as I brushed my hair after the shower, big clumps of flakes/dandruff came right off!! I was so surprised and happy. I will be using this every other hair wash day (2 times a week) to take care of my scalp problems. Please make bigger sizes or sell refill packs<33
1 reply from Jupiter Team team - 5 months ago
This makes our day—thank you for sharing! That first-use wow moment? Exactly what we’re here for. Your routine is spot on, and we love that you’re pairing both formulas for extra scalp support. Noted on the larger sizes and refills—we hear you loud and clear 💫

Best shampoo period
I have intermittent, mild dandruff. I've used many other products, both medicated and unmedicated, and this is the best shampoo I've ever used for any reason. It smells great, cleared up my dandruff right away, and leaves my hair incredibly soft. I would use this even if I never had dandruff.
1 reply from Jupiter Team team - 5 months ago
Now that’s the dream—thank you! We designed Jupiter to be so good, you'd want to use it even if flakes weren’t part of the picture (and you absolutely can - nothing says healthy scalp like a regular routine). So glad it’s working wonders for both your scalp and your strands 💫.

One if the best drugstore dandruff shampoos
One of the best drugstore dandruff shampoos I tried. The scent is nice and not overpowering. A little goes a long way, so the bottle lasts forever. Will definitely buy again

Don't recommend for itchy scalp or dermatitis
I will not be repurchasing this shampoo and conditioner. I used it one time and thought I was gonna pull my hair out from itching my head. My head itched so bad it felt like my skin was crawling. I thought I would give it a 2nd chance but no improvement. Don’t recommend for people with dermatitis or very dry itchy scalp.
1 reply from Jupiter Team team - 7 months ago
Hi there - we’re so sorry to hear about your experience—and grateful you took the time to share it. That uncomfortable reaction is certainly not what we're aiming for, especially those already dealing with scalp sensitivities. Our formulas are dermatologist-formulated and clinically tested to be gentle yet effective, but of course every scalp is different. While we strive to make products that are suitable for everyone, we can sometimes fall short. We absolutely never want anyone to feel worse after using our products. We’d love the chance to learn more and help make things right. Please reach out to us directly at support@hellojupiter.com so our team can support you one-on-one.

Wont be repurchasing
This shampoo does work for dandruff however I will not be repurchasing and quite honestly can hardly even continue to use it. The consistency is SO thin. I have to use probably 3-4oz to cover my whole head (my hair is shoulder length). It doesn’t spread easily at all and also doesn’t foam which makes it harder to get on all of my hair too. I ordered this 2 weeks ago and I already have gone through 3/4 of it. If you do purchase this, I would recommend using another shampoo with it and using this one more on the days that you need the dandruff treatment.

Hi there — thank you for giving our Balancing Shampoo a try, and for taking the time to share your experience. We’re glad to hear it helped with dandruff, but we’re sorry the texture and lather didn’t meet your expectations. Our formula is sulfate-free, which means it won’t foam up the way some shampoos do — that’s intentional, to help protect your scalp’s barrier and avoid the drying effects of harsher surfactants. That said, it should spread evenly with a bit of water and a gentle massage, and you definitely shouldn’t need to use that much per wash. It may feel like its not lathering - but it's absolutely working! We’d love to help troubleshoot or offer some usage tips to make the most of each bottle. If you're open to it, reach out to us at support@hellojupiter.com — our team’s always here to help. 💙
