Paul Mitchell Dandruff Shampoo is a salon-grade, color-safe cleanser formulated with 1% zinc pyrithione to target dandruff flakes and soothe the scalp while being gentle enough for everyday use.

This shampoo combines an active antiflake ingredient with a conditioning base and a fresh bergamot tea scent to deliver a cleansing routine that removes visible flakes, calms irritation, and leaves hair manageable and refreshed. The luxurious lather makes each wash feel premium, while the formula is suitable for all hair types, including color-treated hair. Use regularly to help control recurrence of flaking and post-wash scalp discomfort.

How does Paul Mitchell Dandruff Shampoo work to reduce flakes?

The formula relies on 1% zinc pyrithione, an ingredient that helps reduce the scale and flaking associated with dandruff. It cleans the scalp to remove visible flakes while the conditioning components help maintain hair softness and manageability.

• Active ingredient: 1% zinc pyrithione to address flaking at the source
• Clarifying action: cleanses to lift visible flakes and residue
• Conditioning support: leaves hair smooth and easier to detangle

Is this shampoo gentle enough for daily use and color-treated hair?

Yes — the Paul Mitchell formula is balanced to be gentle on the scalp and hair fibers while still delivering effective antiflake benefits. It is labeled color-safe, meaning it cleans without stripping salon-applied color when used as directed.

• Daily-use formulation: mild enough for routine washing
• Color-safe: preserves color vibrancy with regular use
• Suitable for all hair types: designed for both fine and coarse hair

What does it feel and smell like during use?

The shampoo produces a rich, creamy lather that makes application feel luxurious and thorough. It carries a fresh bergamot tea fragrance that provides an understated, sophisticated scent without overpowering the hair.

• Rich lather: gives a salon-like cleansing experience
• Bergamot tea scent: fresh, subtle, and refined
• Non-greasy finish: rinses clean without heavy residue

How should I use this shampoo for best results?

Apply to wet hair, massage into the scalp to work up a lather, then rinse thoroughly. For persistent flaking, follow label instructions which may suggest repeating the wash and leaving lather on the scalp briefly before rinsing.

• Wet hair: ensure full saturation before applying
• Massage: focus on the scalp for effective cleansing
• Rinse and repeat: repeat if flakes are persistent or per directions

Who is this for: Paul Mitchell Dandruff Shampoo is designed for people with dandruff-prone scalps who want a salon-quality, everyday shampoo that combines an effective antiflake ingredient with conditioning benefits.
