it's a good shampoo to start off with, then it stops working.





if you have a problem with your scalp I would highly recommend Kiehl's anti dandruff shampoo (available in this country from Space NK) it is the best stuff that I have ever used and do not suffer at all anymore, it has good results and I've been using it for 2 years.
