TotalBeauty.com average reader rating: 8.9*
Why: "It's the best thing I've ever tried to calm my scalp and clean my hair," raves a reader. "It's light, doesn't weigh my hair down and keeps my scalp happy. I also like that it's more on the natural side." Other readers say it "keeps the itchiness away," "makes your hair shiny and your scalp feel very refreshed," and even has "a really nice scent that I think is energizing." One reader says she "immediately saw results" and her hair was "squeaky clean, and infinitely healthier!" Another raves, "It actually helps me go an extra day between shampoos, which is amazing cause I have extremely oily roots."

I've always heard that products with tea tree oil help control dandruff. These are some great options!

I have partly dry scalp and it drives me nuts. Thanks for the information on all the products. I never really knew how many there were out there in the market. I'll have to try Jason tea tree oil shampoo...hopefully that will work!

My husband has terrible dry and itchy scalp. I've tried the Paul Mitchell Tea Tree Special and wasn't all that impressed. Will try the H&S Intensive Care and see where it takes us...

i get dandruff because i scratch my scalp because im under sooo much pressure. I know its bad and gross but I dont even notice i do it

Pleasantly surprised by some of the choices. Never contemplated Herbal Essences. I have severe dandruff with frizzy hair and is so embarrassing at times. I have actually used actual tea tree extract and massaged into my scalp. It works wonders.
