What the gurus are saying

Dermatologists consistently praise this shampoo for its dual-active formula that addresses both dandruff and scalp irritation. The selenium sulfide concentration is noted as notably potent for stubborn cases, and the formula is praised for treating dandruff effectively without over-drying hair. Gurus recommend it especially for those with moderate to severe dandruff, oily scalp with dry hair, or flaking resistant to other treatments.

"One of my favorite shampoos that were released last year, Vichy Dercos. That shampoo has selenium sulfide and salicylic acid. I will use it on my scalp, but I also will wash my face with that as well."

"If you really want to step it up, you can always go with Vichy's Dercos shampoo. I love that one because it has selenium sulfide plus salicylic acid. So if you're having itch plus scale, the salicylic acid will help exfoliate the scalp."

"If you have dandruff that is another contributor of oxidative stress. You definitely want to make sure you're using anti-dandruff shampoo that contains like zinc pyrithione, selenium sulfide, ketoconazole for example like Vichy Dercos from Vichy. You want to use that regularly to help with reducing dandruff and the inflammation that contributes to oxidative stress. In fact studies have shown that anti-dandruff shampoos alone whether you have dandruff or not can support hair regrowth, namely zinc pyrithione and ketoconazole."

"I really love this for those that have a little bit more harder to control dandruff. The difference between this one and the other two is if you have more severe dandruff and want something a little extra because the ingredients is different. It contains 1% selenium disulfide and when you look at East Asian ingredients, selenium disulfide is much stronger and more effective at killing off the malassezia yeast, and also contains salicylic acid and glycerin. I love this one because for those that do have harder to control dandruff you can use it on a regular basis to treat your dandruff but also minimizes relapse for up to six weeks and at the same time does not dry out your hair. Highly recommend this one if you have dry hair, oily scalp, or more moderate dandruff to use on a regular basis for better control."
