I would definitely recommend this product I used 2x a week for just the 1 week and my dandruff was GONE it doesnt dry your hair out it does have a weird smell but after you put conditioner it goes away it doesnt stay like selsum blue ...and its 10x better then head and shoulders its great for all types of hair
I just have a few flakes during winter and it has been well controlled by Head and Shoulders, but I don't like the way H&S weighs my hair down. I decided to try this because of good reviews and the active ingredient is 1.5% Zinc pyrithione compared to only 1% with H&S. While I liked the scent, it smelled a bit manly to me. My hair felt like straw and was very hard to comb out, even after using Kenra Daily Provision. It even made my dandruff a lot worse. It was so bad that two family members pulled me aside to tell me that my dandruff looked awful. My scalp felt tight after showering, but the flakes didn't appear until about an hour after showering and I was already out for the day, otherwise I never would have left the house. Just to be sure it wasn't a fluke, I tried this two more times without any other hair products and got the same results. I guess it is back to the other brand for me.

Have tried countless dandruff shampoos with zero success. This is the first product that has worked. I began to see a difference after the first few washes and my scalp has improved drastically! I'm so glad I FINALLY found a product that works!

I bought this shampoo because the level of the active ingredient was slightly higher than some of your average dandruff shampoos, and I love Kenra products. I have battled severe dandruff my entire life, and sometimes it flares up worse and needs a more "intense" scalp treatment. This shampoo works well for that - when I need something with more cleansing power that is a bit stronger. However, I would not recommend this for everyday use. It makes my fine hair feel dry and unmanageable. I typically follow with a deep conditioning hair mask just to balance the effects. I will probably stick with the Biolage anti-dandruff for every day and not try to mix it up again. I will safe the Kenra for times that I need more of a deep-treatment.

After first use my scalp was not flaking or itching, also cleared up build up on my scalp. I use it every other wash and it's helped clear my scalp!!
Happy from Brainerd,mn
Love this shampoo. No more flaky and my head doesn't itch any more plus it smells much better than the other Dandruff shampoos I have tried and it works
Tina from New York
This has been my tried and true. I used it for years and loved it, then I switched to a different shampoo that was about triple the price promising the same thing and it just didn't work at the same capacity as this one did, I came back around to this one and I'm never turning my back on it again. Literally the best shampoo I've used for this issue. The smell is a little funky but I use a conditioner on my ends that smells great so it's not a dealbreaker for me at all. My hair always feels soft for days after using this shampoo and my scalp stays dry and flaky and my roots usually get greasy after 2 days but this has kept all of my weird scalp issues at bay.

I used this a few years ago and it was decent for mild itchy flakes. I repurchased a few months ago and it's totally different, won't lather, makes my hair stuff and hard like I poured turpentine on it, and smells like glue. Something went seriously wrong, I lost the receipt so I couldn't return it but buyer beware
Ash from Napa
I tried this and scalp was still itchy. It made my hair feel like straw and very dry. I also only used it once or twice a week. Wasn't the right one for me. Currently still looking for one that will help.
Nan from Thousand Oaks, CA
It's hard to find, they don't restock. I have been to many difference Ulta stores, most of the time they don't have it. I just got lucky this time.
MPS_Florida from Florida
Tried this a couple of times to give it a chance, but it has to be the worst dandruff shampoo I've ever tried. I would say it's just as bad if not worse than those "tar" type of shampoos. My hair felt like straw and my scalp actually felt and looked worse after using this. I had to return them. I had high hopes because I heard a lot of good things about this brand so I had bought two.

I used this product daily for my psoriasis prone scalp. It works and I love it have used it religiously for 2 years. I wish they still made the conditioner!
Anj from Glendora
This shampoo worked right after the first use. My itchy and flaky scalp was gone, and it made my hair feel very nice and smooth after each use.
Alva from Kansas City
I was suffering from horrible, embarrassing dandruff for years and have tried everything from natural brands to drugstore brands. The salon manager at my Ulta suggested this to me and wow it has changed my life. I use it twice a week and leave it on for 2-3mins then rinse. My hair has not been this flake free in a long time. I recommend this to anyone struggling to find something that works. Definitely a holy grail for me!!!!
Lex from Connecticut
I get very bad dandruff during the winter months and figured I would give this shampoo a try after reading the good reviews. DO NOT get this! It never cleared up my dandruff, in fact, I think it made it even worse. It also made my hair feel very hard and crunchy, making it IMPOSSIBLE to brush my hair after showering. Not only did I hate the way it made my hair feel, but it smells terrible and never lathers up or becomes soapy.

I have dandruff and color treated hair and this is the only shampoo I've found that treats the dandruff but won't strip the color out of my hair.
Becky from Cincinnati, OH
I have spent so much money on OTC dandruff shampoos. None of them worked. Then my hairstylist suggested Kenra. It was expensive, but she guaranteed that it would work or I could bring it back. One bottle lasts a very long time and it is worth every penny.
Krystal from Summerville, SC
I have struggled with dandruff build up on my scalp for many years. And now my preteen daughter is struggling with it. This shampoo, although expensive, has helped our scalp so much! We only use it 2 or 3 times a week, which is how often we wash our hair. We are on our second bottle only because our build up was very bad. I can actually scratch my head and not have build up under my nails! That is huge to me, since I have suffered from scalp build up for so long!

I used this shampoo for about a year. I get patches of irritated and itchy skin on my scalp. This shampoo took care of the itching, and it seemed pretty gentle. It has no silicones, which is great. A few months ago I noticed that my scalp around my hairline was extremely dry. I did a lot of research on dry scalp and decided to switch shampoos to a tea tree-based shampoo (yes to tea tree and sage oil shampoo) and I realized how much buildup I was getting on my scalp from this shampoo (the Kenra) that the new shampoo washed off. So, it took care of the itching, which was priority 1. But it didn't help the dryness, and I guess was causing some buildup on my fine hair. If you have medium to thick hair, or don't have a dryness problem, this is a great shampoo.

I use it daily.

As the title states.

Unfortunately this didn't work for my dandruff but did give me great volume. I like Kendra products and I feel like their volumizing line actually does what it says so I really wanted this to help with my dandruff too. It didn't work for me but I'm sure it could for others.
