I was hurting until I got this...see for yourself! Neutrogena T/Gel Extra Strength (Coal Tar)
Scalp Psoriasis is a immune system disorder. Cells grow too fast and causing scaling, itching and discomfort. Out of no where I got this later in life. I got Head and Shoulder Shampoo, no good didn't do a thing. Tried Selsun Blue Medicated Anti-dandruff Shampoo and also no change, it didn't improve the condition. I was ready to go to a dermatologist as a last resort. My barber said to use Neutrogena T/Gel and leave it in 10 minutes prior to washing it out. I choose the Extra Strength with Coal Tar. Disclaimer it looks like motor oil and doesn't not have a pleasant smell, it is smells strong and has a tar like smell. I rubbed it into the problem area and let it sit while having my morning coffee. Afterwards while taking my morning shower used it like any other shampoo rubbing it in. This was magical for me, my condition went into remission in less then a week. The benefits out way all the negatives...look and odor. It is a serious product for a serious condition. Highly recommended! I included a before/after picture to show the results. Don't hesitate get this product!

    I got this next day and was willing to pay extra and it was beyond worth it.

    Ive used items such as head and shoulders, prescription ketazole, and whatever other brands i could get my hands on for my severe flaking. during the wintry dry months my scalp gets very dry, and i have very overactive oily glands.

    this resulted in severe flakes across my entire scalp, the top part of my forehead and in/around my ears. nothing was working and decided to try this based on reviews.

    this thing cleared my issue upwards to 85% in about 4 straight days. the first day was night and day. half of it was gone and i didnt wake up with severe flakes. the next day used it again, it cleared it even more. third straight day it was nearly done working. by the fourth day it was essentially 90% cleared

    its not 100% but its been 2 weeks and out of 14 days ive only used it about 6-8 days, the first four nights (4) then every other day after than (another 4).

    whatever is in this stuff or whatever this stuff uses - it worked like a miracle. i could actually say i can confidently go out without people noticing a single dry flake on my head because it works that good.

    the scent is strong but you get used to it. the value is great. and the moisturizing isnt that good but its well enough you can use it everyday and you will notice it will not dry out the hair like other shampoos do.

    just read other reviews suggestions about good moisturizers and using this on and off sparingly to keep the flakes away.

    this thing is well worth every penny and im so glad i took a chance on this. it turned me into neutrogena fan.

    This is a great product, it clears up dandruff and other scalp issues very quickly. Plus, if you like the smell of coal tar, it is very pleasing and refreshing.

    Ok so this smells so freaking awful. But like it works!!! I noticed a dramatic decrease in the flakes in my hair after the first use. The large flakes we mostly gone and there were a few small ones left. After my second use about 2 days later, there were the occasional small flakes left. But like so little that no one would notice it unless they were trying really hard. And I have black hair! I also noticed how soft my hair was after my first use. In addition, by my second use, I realized that I hadn’t lost as much hair as I usually do (in the shower and out).

    The first time I left it in my hair for about 5 min. The second time I left it in about 10 min. After rinsing it out, I followed the advice of another reviewer and used a different shampoo and then a conditioner (Renpure coconut fragrance) to try to drown out the smell. With the conditioner I left it in for at least 5 min and it helps. I think I can still smell it slightly, but it’s not as over powering without the extra steps.

    After a several more uses, I think I’ll be able to switch to the regular strength one for once a week. We’ll see how that goes. Anyway, I’m so thankful someone recommended this to me because I actually don’t feel so self conscious about my hair now when I’m out in public. I used to be so embarrassed about my hair. The awful smell is worth it! Lol

    Edit 3/15/2020: used the product for the third time (about 5 days since the second use). It still works great! Barely any flakes noticed, but afterward I also noticed I was losing more hair again (about the same amount as before I started using this product). But to be fair, I did only leave it in for only about 5 min (compared to the 10 min on my 2nd use) because I was pressed for time. So that may have played a role or maybe the length of time between use played a role or maybe it was just pure good timing that i lost less hair in the 2nd use.

    Great stuff, HORRIBLE smell. I was recently diagnosed with psoriasis on my scalp and was prescribed this shampoo by my doctor. It works very well to help clear the irritation on my scalp, even cleans my oily hair super thoroughly and gives me bouncy soft hair. HOWEVER the smell is very strong and intense. It reminds me of gasoline fumes... the first couple times I used it, I almost gave it up because of the smell. But since my doctor prescribed this to me and I was desperate for a solution I stuck with it. I tolerate the smell now knowing how helpful it is and the fact that it makes my hair feel super soft and bouncy is a plus. The smell lingers after your hair dries as well so be prepared for that. If you are alternating between using this and a "normal" shampoo" be warned that the smell will persist for a few washes in between use... I would still recommend it, just wish the could fix the smell somehow. y
