A little goes a long way!
I bought this because every time I scratched my scalp, I would get a bunch of white residue under my nails. For reference, I'm Caucasian with very fine hair. I tried this product for the first time Monday. I was surprised at how thin the formula was so put in WAY too much product. I couldn't wash it...

Leaves nasty residue all over hair
This product used to work, I followed the instructions and left on for 10 mins then rinse and wash hair as normal. However the last 6 months or so when I use it, it leaves product all in my hair that cannot be washed out despite washing and rinsing twice, it feels greasy and sticky. I had to go out ...

The first time I used this, I have never been itchier in my life. I also got so scared it dried out my hair... BUT two weeks later I have noticed less itch and way less flakes. So IDK. I haven't changed anything else in my hair care routine.
Amazing product.

I have suffered with scalp psoriasis for about 12 months nothing was working to help it. Someone recommended this. I have been using it before washing my hair for about 8 weeks and my scalp is amazing! Highly recommend!
So far so good

Only been using for a couple weeks now, I don't know if it's me or I have actually seen a difference in how quickly my hair gets greasy. I have very thin and few hair, they usually start getting greasy only hours after washing. At 24 hours I have to use dry shampoo, and I wash every other day. With this lotion I kinda feel like I get a few extra hours without the grease. We'll see how it goes. Some of the cons: I felt like my head was a bit itchy at times, but not sure it's related, and it seems like the bottle won't last long.
It didn't help with cleaning my scalp at all.

I have used one full bottle of product, once a week. and from the first time, I noticed that there are a lot more dried skins on my scalp. Ofcourse as product is exfoliating, I expected that it start removing old dead skin, so I kept using it hoping that after sometime I finally see my scalp cleaned w/o white stuff. Pictures are from last time use when bottle was empty. Basically no help with cleaning nothing. During this time I used always same Dercos shampoo after using this product.
small quantity, can't really tell if it's doing anything.

So the texture of this is extremely watery, meaning you need quite a bit of it to coat your whole scalp. There's also nothing in it to make it adhere to the scalp. I genuinely have no idea if it does anything. It hasn't caused any problems though so it's not harming.
