"I was hoping that this product would smell like their other products, but it's really subtle and mild. With that being said, it more than makes up for it in function! Use this when your scalp needs some extra purifying and is super oily or dirty - it has a tingly sensation as it cleans so you know it's doing a great job. Love this and will be purchasing again!"
"I have a greasy scalp, with the occasional flakes, and this helps so much! I just wish the bigger sizes were more readily available."
"I have dry sometimes itchy scalp especially in winter months. This shampoo along with the conditioner really helps with dryness and restores moisture to the scalp"
"I’ve been struggling with an itchy scalp for years and tried everything from medicated shampoos to custom shampoos to drug store shampoos. This is the only one that works for me! At first I was disappointed at the lack of original MoroccanOil scent but it’s grown on me. Besides since I don’t use conditioner anywhere near my scalp, I get all the scent I need from the hydrating conditioner and mask. :)"
"I like it but I wish it was more clarifying."
"Found this a few months ago now, used it, along with the conditioner, once and immediately my hair and scalp felt better. Assuming you're able to find both, I'd recommend purchasing it because I can only find the conditioner at this point."
"This does nothing at all to soothe my itchy, flaky, tight scalp. I've been using this + the conditioner for a month now and by the time my hair air-dries, the itching and flaking is back. Won't repeat."
"This is a wonderful product made my scalp feel great and just overall hair was better. Thank you for a great product"
"I love this shampoo so much! It has helped with my dry flakey scalp and redness as well. Will definitely continue to buy this moving forward it is a life saver!"
"My initial experience with the Moroccanoil Scalp Shampoo has been notably positive. Upon application, the formula delivered an immediate cooling, mint-infused sensation that refreshed the scalp without feeling harsh. After rinsing, my hair felt lighter, cleaner, and noticeably more balanced. Although this was my first use, the product shows promising potential for improving overall scalp health. I plan to incorporate it into my weekly routine and will continue to monitor its performance over time. I look forward to providing an updated assessment as I observe longer-term results."
