Has anyone used that Neutrogena T-Gel Extra Strength Shampoo?

I have a really itchy scalp. I am currently using Equate Therapeutic Shampoo it's suppose to be the generic version of Neutrogena T-Gel Original or whatever. Has anyone used the Extra strength shampoo? I am considering buying it. I'm running out of options. I've tried most dandruff shampoos and they haven't done anything. Please help!Has anyone used that Neutrogena T-Gel Extra Strength Shampoo?
My husband and daughter both have Psoriasis and they have used both.





The equate worked pretty well, but to be honest, I can't stand the odor it leaves on their hair. It actually makes me feel physically sick. Others commented to my daughter who is 19, that her hair smelled terrible. After several bottles of it, we quit and switched to the Neutrogena T-gel extra strength. It has I believe 4% tar instead of the regular strength's 2%.





The extra strength works very, very well for both of them. They used to use Denorex's extra strength tar shampoo but they quit manufacturing it. They both actually have found better results with Neutrogena's extra strength.





If these don't work, see if you can get to a dermatologist who can make sure you don't have something else going on with your scalp like a fungus. Also, a dermatologist can prescribe a shampoo with an even higher percentage of tar.





Best of luck to this frustrating problem.Has anyone used that Neutrogena T-Gel Extra Strength Shampoo?
You can use this shampoo as many times as you want per week. Personally, my family does best if it is used every day with a non greasy conditioner on the ends of the hair only. Hope this helps! Report Abuse

i use the neutrogena t-gel shampoo and it has worked wonders for me. whenever it gets a little worse (too much blow drying or swimming and washing too much) i use the more expensive kerastase anti dandruff treatment recommended by my hair dressers. this definitely helps lift the flakiness even more but i don't use it that often (maybe once a month)





one thing to note is that you shouldn't condition the roots of your hair at all if you have a dandruff problem, only use conditioner on your hair.
yes it works!! it costs a bit more but it is worth it





it should tell you on the back how many times to use it per week. it stinks.. but what i do is just wash the problem area(s) and then wash with my regular shampoo which smells good. also, tgel makes your hair look SOOO clean and shiny! i use it two or three times a week.
Just finding the right shampoo won't cut it. I'm sure u've tried many products which don't work... loss of time and money.


Seems like you have a problem with ur sebaceous glands. so you need to find what's stimulating them @ first place.


The symptoms u're having are:


-Oily hair


-Itchy scalp


-Dandruff


-An oily skin around the nose area





This can be either because u are on an improper diet (fat consumption), either u have a hormonal imbalance, or u're on anabolic steroids.





So u need some vitamin A supplements for starter (eat loads of carrots)... cut back from steroids if u're on any... Consult an endocrinologist to check ur homonal balance.





Try using shampoos that contain ';clay'; as it absorbs oily residues... and stop spending money on Neutrogena-T-Gel-Extra-Strength-Shampoo-�?products.





Get well soon
