Sachajuan Scalp Shampoo
The Swedish shampoo that treats the scalp as skin: piroctone olamine and climbazole, the two ingredients pharmacies use for flakes, plus salicylic acid to loosen what is already there and wheat protein for the hair on the way out. Gentle enough for color and quiet enough to use every wash.
