DHS Medicated Salicylic Acid Shampoo 4oz — 3% SAL for Dandruff, Psoriasis & Eczema; Fragrance- and Paraben-Free

DHS SAL Shampoo is a 4 oz medicated shampoo formulated with 3% salicylic acid to help reduce flaking, oil build-up, and scalp itching associated with dandruff, psoriasis, and eczema.

This concentrated, fragrance-free shampoo is designed for people who need an intensive scalp formula without added perfumes or parabens. DHS SAL focuses on loosening and removing dry, flaky skin on the scalp while reducing excess oil, so hair looks cleaner and the scalp feels less irritated. The small bottle size makes it convenient for trial use or travel, and the uncomplicated ingredient profile suits those avoiding unnecessary additives.

How does DHS SAL Shampoo work on flaky or dry scalp?

DHS SAL uses salicylic acid at a 3% concentration to help break down stubborn, dead skin and scale on the scalp. By loosening flakes and reducing surface build-up, it makes it easier to wash them away and maintain a cleaner scalp environment. Regular use can help manage visible scaling and reduce the frequency of heavy flaking.

• 3% salicylic acid to exfoliate scalp build-up
• Fragrance- and paraben-free to limit irritation
• Formulated for rinse-off application—works during brief contact

Will this shampoo irritate sensitive skin?

The formula omits fragrance and parabens, which reduces common irritants for sensitive scalps. Salicylic acid can be drying or tingly for some users, so following the directions and rinsing thoroughly helps minimize discomfort. If you have extremely sensitive skin, test a small area first or consult a clinician for personalized advice.

• Fragrance-free to lower allergy risk
• PABA-free and paraben-free for gentler use
• Rinse well; follow usage instructions to limit dryness

How should I use DHS SAL Shampoo for best results?

Apply the shampoo to wet hair, massage until it lathers, and allow it to sit on the scalp for a few minutes before rinsing to let the active ingredient work. For stubborn scaling, a repeat wash can help further loosen flaking debris. Frequency depends on symptom severity—some people use it weekly, others several times per week—so monitor your scalp's response and adjust accordingly.

• Wet hair thoroughly before applying
• Massage into scalp, leave on for a few minutes, then rinse
• Repeat if needed; adjust frequency based on scalp condition

What results can I expect and when might I see them?

Many users notice a reduction in visible flaking and less greasy build-up after a few washes, although individual timelines vary. Because the product targets surface scale, consistent use often leads to more manageable scalp appearance and less frequent heavy flaking. Avoid expecting instant or permanent cures; this is a symptom-management shampoo intended for regular use as needed.

• Visible flake reduction within a few washes for many users
• Ongoing use helps maintain a cleaner scalp surface
• Individual responses differ—monitor and adjust use

Who is this for: DHS SAL Shampoo is suited for adults seeking a focused, medicated rinse-off shampoo to manage oily, flaky scalp symptoms linked to dandruff, seborrheic-type scaling, psoriasis-like plaques, or eczema-prone areas. It's a good choice for those who prefer fragrance-free, PABA- and paraben-free formulas and want a compact 4 oz bottle for trial, travel, or targeted spot treatment. If you have severe skin conditions or are unsure about interactions with other topical treatments, consult your healthcare provider before use.
