Should this be used on the scalp?

I tried it just to see; not so great. On a bare scalp or VERY short hair, yes. But with my longer hair it left it clean but dull and kind of tangled. Not the shine and smoothness like you get with hair shampoo. Too bad too, I'm a big fan of all-in-one products but this isn't one.

I'm not entirely sure I can answer your question, but I'll try... this product is not a shampoo. I use it as a face wash. You could also use it as a body wash. Free & Clear DOES have a shampoo product. If you're not looking for a shampoo and just looking to see if you can use this (essentially) body wash on your scalp, I don't see how it would hurt. If you have a shaved or bald head it would probably be perfectly fine. If you have hair, I'm not sure how the hair would react in comparison to the shampoo, but setting the hair part aside, this cleanser could be used all over without hurting you. Have at it.

I do not know. You can call the manufacturer at 800-325-8232. They were happy to answer our questions.

I am not a Cosmotologist, but my hair dresser recommended it. It only goes on the scalp, not the hair. I had breakage around my edges & was able to tell the difference in a month if used several times a week. It oxygenates the scalp and helps with breakage.

One way I do use it as is pre-poo. I used to do it every time before I wash for a couple of hours and sometimes overnight. I also made sure to rub it on my scalp before washing to help with dryness and itchy scalp. I wouldn't recommend putting on your scalp for daily use as it may come out greasy.Other uses: I also started to take a dime size amount of oil and spread it over damp hair after towel drying it. The oil helps lock in the moisture into the hair shaft.

I am not sure. It states clearly on the instructions that it is to be only used on the head. I have been using it on my eyebrows. There seems to be some growth. Personally I would be hesitant to put it on my face.

I'm not saying it wouldn't work for you, but after my experience, I wouldn't use it for anything. If you haven't tried Head and Shoulders for dry scalp, that might be worth a shot. Another thing you might want to consider is your diet. Google "dry scalp and diet" and see what comes up. What you consume can make a difference.

Sorry, I haven't used it on my scalp. I used it on a callous for my pet, but it didn't help.

its good for the hair,put it on the dry ends but i dont think u should put it on your scalp cause it will make your hair greasy and not easy to wash out,its a very thick cream

I never had the issue of stinky scalp, but this product is strong and has a strong smell to it. I assume it should remove any issues with the scalp especially itching.

No. It's supposed to stimulate the scalp with a slight tingling feeling and it plumps the hair somewhat.

In my experience, I would say no. This product seemed to strip my hair of all natural oils, making it extremely dry and brittle. With a dry scalp, I personally would stay away from this product. I hope this helps! :)

I really don't know. I never attempted to put it on my scalp or hair. It is a thick greasy feeling product which soothes and softens the skin, especially the feet, hands, elbows.

If you know anything about Teatree oil you know it has natural healing properties. This product makes use of this aspect to deep clean hair and scalp while at the same time naturally sterilizing with antiseptic oils. You will immediately notice a 'tingling' sensation when you apply and work into a lather. The longer you leave the suds to work the more deeply the treatment. I have found this shampoo to be an effective treatment for dandruff and scalp eruptions. Once your scalp is healthy again, you may decide to use another shampoo or conditioner regularly and use teatree on a less frequent basis to maintain a healthy head. BTW teatree oil has been used by Australians for decades if not centuries. It was issued to WWII soldiers as part of their First Aid Kit to treat insect bites, cuts, scrapes and external wounds.

I use this on my head. I can tell you that it has a very strong smell. I use shampoo after I let it sit on my head for about 5 mins. I use about half a cap full. If left on something like your face and not wahed off, it will burn and leave a rash like mark. Don't do that.

I use this all the time. It can be used on dry or damp hair...It can also be used on the scalp as well as the hair (which is how I use it) but since it's so thick a little goes a long way. It all depends on what you feel works best for you. The instructions are on the bottle as well so you can always look there.

You can put it in an applicator bottle and apply to your scalp. A little goes a long way. You can also mix it with your deep conditioners.

you can use it when hair feels like it needs oil and moisture. i threw mine away because it caused an itchy scalp

It works as a conditioner for the scalp or add moisture to the hair if it's dryA dot of each together would not hurt but add more protect (same oil)
