Overview
Nizoral's Pre-Shampoo Scalp Build-Up Remover is a 5 oz exfoliating treatment meant to be applied to dry hair before Nizoral Anti-Dandruff Shampoo. It uses a micro-exfoliating technology to lift residue and dead skin ahead of the wash, and is free of sulfates, parabens, dyes and added fragrance.
This is built as a companion step to a specific shampoo rather than a standalone scalp treatment, so its value depends on already using Nizoral's anti-dandruff line. It is positioned squarely as prep work, done before shampooing rather than instead of it.
- 5 oz pre-shampoo exfoliating prep
- Micro-exfoliating technology for buildup and residue
- Free of sulfates, parabens, dyes and fragrance
- Safe for color-treated and gray hair
Who it's for
People who already use Nizoral Anti-Dandruff Shampoo and want a build-up removing prep step first, including those with color-treated, chemically processed or gray hair.
Pros and cons
- Free of sulfates, parabens, artificial fragrance and dyes
- Listed as safe for color-treated, chemically processed and gray hair
- Simple pre-shampoo prep step
- Formulated specifically to pair with Nizoral shampoo rather than to work alone
- No customer review data included in the listing to confirm results
Performance notes
It is applied to a dry scalp before shampooing, massaged in, and left to sit for a few minutes so the micro-exfoliating technology can loosen buildup, residue and dead skin cells, then rinsed out during the Nizoral shampoo wash.
