SULCIN Selenium 2% Shampoo is formulated for oily hair and a scalp prone to visible flakes. It is especially relevant if your roots lose freshness soon after washing, your scalp becomes greasy quickly between washes, or flakes are noticeable around the hairline or on dark clothing.
The key active ingredient is selenium sulphide 2%, which is known for helping reduce the appearance of dandruff by slowing the buildup of dead skin cells on the scalp. This makes it a practical option when flaking seems to come with excess oiliness rather than simple dryness. The formula also contains saw palmetto, a plant extract commonly used in scalp products intended for oilier skin conditions, where a more balanced feel is preferred.
If your scalp feels tight, burning, scratched, very irritated or unusually sensitive, introduce the shampoo carefully and follow the package directions. It is also sensible not to combine it at the same time with several other active scalp products, as this can make it harder to understand what is helping or what may be causing discomfort.
The formula is free from parabens, silicones and sodium lauryl sulfate, so it may suit people who prefer cleansing without the heavier coated feel that some richer formulas can leave behind. If your scalp reacts unpleasantly, stop using it and seek advice from a specialist.
