What did I expect? – I got these to try awhile ago now, whilst they do clean the hair very well the deep cleanse one at any rate, the soothing one still burns and itches, so what I’m doing is mixing the two of them together with a 100% natural baby shampoo and that’s working fine for now. I love how my hair feels after using it, but yeah it’s not great, working fine… Read more

is like a blanket term for it’s not bad, but my scalp still burns a bit either way.

I will continue to use it on my ends though, together with the QV one as both work well together when used there.

I was doing this and than washing it off with the Clean & Pure soap and than putting it into the ends and that worked until it didn't, got pretty severe burns yesterday after doing that.

So again was hoping for a shampoo I could use that doesn’t burn and this one still isn’t it.

If the baby one had higher suds and less orange oil smell it may be the best for me who knows. But yeah it barely suds and the smell is overpowering. Best to mix it with another shampoo honestly.

Dry and itchy – Following the use of this product, my hair and scalp felt excessively dry. Not only did I experience an unexpected dryness, but I also developed an itchy scalp in the following days, which I had never encountered before. (No allergy.) I used the conditioner from the same brand, too. Show details

Product is fantastic – The conditioner is fantastic, is very thick, however the bottle has come out with a lid, instead of a pump is like popping a pimple before the pimple is ready to be popped. Please send both the shampoo and conditioner out with pumps. Show details

Can I give this more than 5 stars? – After suffering many years with dry, itchy scalp and losing count of creams, lotions, prescription medications etc. which did not help I tried Dermaveen Shampoo and Conditioner and my problem is finally solved! Have not even finished the first bottles of these products and my problem appears to be over. I can recommend these products without hesitation. Show details

AMAZING – This shampoo (and conditioner) is amazing. I suffer from bad sensitive scalp (excema) and this shampoo and conditioner not only helped clear it up it has kept it from coming back and my hair is so lovely and soft. I will definitely be buying again. Show details

Brilliantly shiny hair – I always aim for the natural products, otherwise I'll breakout in pimples or red patches. Darmaveen made my hair feel soft, shiny and manageable. Even my grays are at bay Show details

Intense itching – At first, it was a miracle! It was the only shampoo that got rid of the dry flaky parts of my scalp after trying Antidandruff shampoo (I realised I had dry flaky scalp and not dandruff). Initially it was so soothing and gentle to my scalp, ridding 99% of my flakes. After 1 month continuous use, with approx 5 washes per week, my scalp is starting… Read more

to itch like crazy. I cannot stop scratching it. I used both the shampoo and conditioner according to the instructions. My scalp was never itchy to begin with, only flaky and dry. Now 20% of the flakes are coming back, and my whole scalp is itchy. Also, I’m starting to notice my hair becoming more drier.

Works OK but ridiculously thick :( – The effect on my hair was OK, didn't cause any irritation but the product has the consistency of Clag and it's very hard to get any out of the bottle. You have to hit your palm repeatedly to get any out and the shape of the bottle does not lend itself to being kept upside down. Tried it a couple of mornings before I gave up and threw it away. Not recommended. Show details

Wouldn’t recommend – Used dermaveen shampoo and conditioner for 4 months, washing my hair every 2-3 days. In the first 2-3 weeks noticed it got rid of excess oil in hair. After the 4 months my hair volume dramatically decreased as it dried my hair out causing it to go brittle, dry and therefore break. Having now to go to hair dressers to get intensive treatment to… Read more

rectify the issue. Having had brought multiple bottles of dermaveen which are quite expensive, I am very disappointed and now have to spend more to again fix the issue.

What happened?! – Bought last 2019 and even put positive review here, but eversince they changed the bottle, the content has changed too. While using, my hair sticks together and too dry while washing and drying. I got so much hair loss , which was a surprise coz the reason I bought this last 2019 was due to hair loss. Now, I will the throw this almost full bottle… Read more

It contains SLS Sodium Laurel Sulphate – My first time using Dermaveen shampoo and conditioner. Because it contains SLS which causes headaches, redness and itching I would never use it again. German studies of 2000 people 42% had adverse reactions. I have sensitive skin. But this product caused itchy scalp which I do not want. Do not use this product use a more natural one with no dangerous contents. Show details

Mixed opinion – I am using this product both shampoo and conditioner because I seem to have an allergic response to many toiletries. The product is lovely to apply, albeit another review also commented on the difficulty of squeezing the conditioner out of the bottle. Unfortunately, every time I wash my hair with this product I sneeze and sneeze, so I'm really wondering what they've put in it that causes such a reaction. Show details

Best shampoo for dry scalp – Anything that has oatmeal is an absolute best friend of my body. This shampoo is not an exception. The shampoo is so smooth and after 2-3 uses, I think i'll have to ditch my conditioner! Show details

Great product – I have itchy sculp n dry hair. After the first time use, my hair is so smooth even without using conditioner, I thought maybe it was because the way I blow dry my hair, I gave it another go, it still gave amazing result. Best shampoo ever. Love this product. Will continue purchase. Show details

Dries out your hair – I've purchased this shampoo and conditioner to combat my itchy scalp problem and dry hair ( it has oatmeal in it that should moisturise your hair). What I loved about these products is that they are fragrance free. I am sensitive to fragrances. When I first used it I was impressed with the quality and thought I found my holy grail shampoo and… Read more

conditioner. The shampoo washed hair well and the conditioner detangled it pretty well as well. I enjoyed using them both together. The shampoo minimised itchiness of my scalp but not completely stopped it. Unfortunately after one month of using these products my curly dry hair have dried out even more. These products turned my hair into a birds nest. It was dry and super frizzy. I found conditioner didnt moisturise my hair very well. Shame, as I had such high hopes for these products. Sadly will not repurchase these.

Ok but need to add "leave in" product – Good basic conditioner. Did not irritate my scalp. Probably best for non colored/treated hair. Need to use twice as much as my usual conditioner so fairly expensive if u have longer hair

Love it – I bought this shampoo after noticing dandruff around my hairline, my friends have always told me i get dandruff in my hair too. My scalp is dry but my hair gets oily, and every past shampoo has left my hair stripped of oils and kinda dead looking. Anyway i bought this shampoo because my scalp was itchy and it was a little expensive in my eyes but… Read more

it works amazingly! My hair is shiny and i have less fly-aways. It just looks really nice so im happy after first try :)

Great for daily wash! – It seemed that I have not been getting the right hair shampoo here until I came across this oatmeal range from Dermaveen! Although it doesn't smell as good as other hair shampoo, It's perfect for daily wash as it's gentle to scalp. My scalp was initially too dry and flaky but this shampoo has completely changed my hair condition after I started… Read more

using it! Unlike other hair shampoo which could be too harsh on scalp, this shampoo soothes and nourishes the scalp! Love this product and I don't think I'll be switching to other hair shampoo!

Loved this product – I have been using dermaveen for my hair for a few years; stopped dry itchy he / so good! But lately it is just not helping anymore; if he formula has changed, why?

Why did they change it? – I now have breakouts on my head, forehead and upper back because they now have wheat it in & I hadn't realised that they'd changed it. Not happy. At. All

Agreed - new formula is bad change! – I too am very disappointed with the changed Dermaveen conditioner formula this year. For the last 2 years it was the only conditioner I could find that didn't trigger an allergy-like reaction from breathing it on my hair. Now it's just like all the others! :( And my hair has to go unconditioned :(

New formula doesn't work for me! – I have been using the shampoo for 20 years very successfully for dry and itchy scalp. Recently I have had dry and itchy scalp and have now noticed that there is a new improved formula. I notice of another reviewer has had the same problem. When I ring the one 800 number on the back of the bottle it tells me that that number is not available from… Read more

my mobile phone. I would really like to talk to someone about this. On a more positive note I also notice that the words oatmeal shampoo are now bigger on the bottle which is really good for we people who can't see without glasses or contact lenses in the shower .

My new favourite – I bought this Shampoo at my local pharmacy after everyday shampoos had been leaving my scalp irritated and very itchy. I'd previously used Selsun Blue to help with a sudden dandruff issue I had but found it quite chemical smelling and it left my hair looking fried. This shampoo is my new favourite, I don't think I'll switch to anything else for a… Read more

long time. It smells lovely, washes my hair well and leaves it feeling silky and smooth. It also completely calmed down my irritated scalp after two washes which is exactly what I was after. I'd always prefer a more 'natural' approach to scalp care so this works really well for me.

Why have they changed the formula? – Have been using this product for a number of years and it was the only one I found that works for my sensitive scalp and skin. Started a new bottle last week that had a 'new improved formula' sticker on it. Now getting stinging and itchiness when I use plus hair feels like it has been stripped. Very disappointed.

no improvement – I have been using both Dermaveen Shampoo and Conditioner for psoriasis/eczema for a month. Not only is it not relieving my condition, I suspect it is slightly worse.

Love this product – Was recommended this shampoo after suffering continuous itching patches on my scalp. I always previously used expensive salon shampoos & conditioners. Dermaveen makes my hair soft & shiny. The smell is a bit dull so I spray a small amount of perfume when hair is damp and it smells divine. Another thing I do is add a small amount of essential oils… Read more

to conditioner like patchouli, sandal wood etc. I notice some reviewers have mentioned it's expensive. I always buy on sale at different shops.

Gentle, great for eczema and dandruff – Normal shampoo dries out my scalp, making my eczema and dandruff manifest more severely. I've found that this shampoo is very soothing, lathers well and does not give me an itch. The down-side is the smell as I do love a nice fragrant shampoo + conditioner, while this one is very medicinal-smelling. It also makes my hair greasy after only a… Read more

day or 2 without washing, while I could go for at least 3 days before.

Overall, great if you want a break from harsh chemicals on your sensitive scalp - it really provides relief from eczema and itching. However, not one I would use on a constant basis due to the smell and less effective 'cleansing' factor.

Been using for years, still happy – Normal shampoo just irritates and makes my skin flare, been using this about five years, tends to leave my hair a bit limp if I condition also, so this is one shampoo you can use without conditioner even on colour treated hair. I will alternate this shampoo with poo bars etc, but still find they can irritate my scalp, I have never had "burnout"… Read more

with this shampoo either. Reliable, safe, use it on your baby, play with other shampoos till your head hurts then use for the sweet relief, smells like almond essence. Now available in supermarkets.
