Clear away the build-up behind visible flakes
Neutrogena T/Sal uses salicylic acid to help loosen dead skin that collects on the scalp. This makes it a useful cleansing step when visible build-up and flakes are the main concern. The original T/Sal formula is fragrance-free and distinct from coal-tar shampoos, with pack-specific use instructions below.
Care for a flaky, build-up-prone scalp
T/Sal’s salicylic-acid formula helps loosen scalp build-up and control the symptoms of dandruff and seborrhoeic dermatitis. It is a scalp treatment shampoo, so work the lather into the scalp rather than just along the hair.
Choosing this formula
This is the original Therapeutic Scalp Build-Up Control formula. Its published ingredient list contains no added fragrance. It is different from T/Sal Plus and from coal-tar shampoos.
How to use
- Thoroughly wet your hair.
- Massage a generous amount into the scalp and leave the lather for several minutes.
- Rinse and repeat.
Use at least twice weekly.
Before use
For external use only. Avoid the eyes; rinse thoroughly if contact occurs. Stop if symptoms worsen or do not improve with regular use. Keep away from children. Store at room temperature.
