What should I be aware of regarding the scent and potential skin sensitivity? — CLASSIC Tar Shampoo, 550 ml Modum

As with most tar-based hair products, this shampoo has a distinct, characteristic scent from birch tar. Some people find this aroma earthy and clean, while others may find it strong. It’s a natural part of the product's active profile. More importantly, the intensity of tar can be too much for very sensitive skin. It is wise to do a patch test before full use: apply a small amount on your inner forearm, rinse after a few minutes, and wait 24 hours to check for any reaction. When using it on your scalp, pay attention to how your skin feels. If you experience any redness, itching, or a persistent sensation of irritation, discontinue use. This precaution is especially relevant if you have a history of reactive or easily irritated skin. The product is not intended to diagnose, treat, or prevent any disease. If you have a chronic scalp condition, are pregnant, breastfeeding, or on medication, consulting a specialist before introducing a new product is a sensible step.
