- Q
Is this shampoo good for a sort of dry scalp?
- Asked by Katherine
- Official Answer By Redken - BEHi there! Thank you for reaching out about our Acidic Bonding Concentrate Shampoo. For a dry scalp, the Acidic Bonding Concentrate Shampoo can be beneficial, though its primary focus is on repairing and strengthening damaged hair. Here's why it's a good choice for overall hair health, which can indirectly support a healthier scalp: pH-Balancing Formula: This shampoo has an acidic pH, which helps to seal the hair cuticle. A balanced pH can also create a healthier environment for your scalp. Bond Repair: It's formulated with Citric Acid and our Bonding Care Complex to reinforce weakened bonds in damaged hair. While this directly targets hair integrity, healthier hair can reduce stress on the scalp. Gentle Cleansing: It offers a gentle cleanse, which can be important for a sensitive or dry scalp, preventing further irritation from harsh ingredients. While it's not specifically a dry scalp treatment, improving the overall health and condition of your hair can certainly contribute to a more comfortable scalp. For persistent or severe dry scalp concerns, you might also consider incorporating a dedicated scalp treatment.Was this answer helpful to you

Great for blondes and highlights
Hair Type Wavy Hair
This product (and the whole system) was a savior for my hair after I went from dark brown to blonde. Even though I took a year to get the blonde I wanted, my hair had damage. This product really helps with breakage from bleaching and heat tools. My hair feels noticeably healthier after each use. Highly recommend!
Best shampoo!!

This is my go to shampoo!! It always makes my hair and scalp feel clean. The scent is good and not overwhelming. Also last me months!
Did NOT work for me
Hair Type Very Curly Hair
My hair is very wiry, thin, brittle, and prone to breakage. Left natural, it looks like worn out steel wool that has started to unravel, feels like very thin straw, and seems to shed more than my corgi in summer. So naturally, I decided to try to grow it out shoulder length. My reviews are based on how products have helped or hindered that effort, and may not be applicable to your hair type. I started off using the Redken Acidic Bonding Concentrate Shampoo, Conditioner, 5 Minute Mask, and Leave-In Treatment. At first, the results seemed positive. There definitely seemed to be less daily breakage, and my hair SEEMED softer and stronger. However, there seemed to be a maximum length to which my hair would grow. After a year of expensive products, my hair was actually SHORTER than when I started this line. I finally read the ingredients and Redken products contain alcohol, which is very bad for my hair. I switched to Bondi Boost products and have noticed significant growth, less breakage, and have been much happier. DISCLAIMER: During the same period, I did over color my hair, had to strip the color, bleach it, and re-color it. That process is most likely responsible for a great deal of damage and loss of length; probably more so than the Redken products. I also started scalp treatments, more frequent shampooing, and a change of styling products. Therefore the loss of length and lack of growth can not be totally attributed to these products, but I am still much happier with Bondi Boost.
