    Just to add - my DD is allergic to most shampoos but has found that she can use Superdrug's own brand "Fragrance free" shampoo with no problem. And it's only 79p a bottle (or poss 89p, can't quite remember which she said.... :rolleyes:

    I ahve problems with my scalp and have been using Boots specailist shampoo for itchy scalp, it is really good and soothes my head, there is also a conditioner. Not sure about what is in it though.

    PS It is always on BOGOF or 342

    I suffer from eczema on my scalp and pretty much all shampoos make it worse.

    At the moment I am using Polytar shampoo -- it's made from coal-tar and other nice things like that, but it works -- which might be an option for you?

    i would agree with the polytar shampoo,it smells quite fresh and clean although it is strong when you first use it,but when your hair is dry it smells nice,you can also get it on prescription from gp,like other half does,otherwise its in superdrug the cheapest i think
    appreciate what you have got x

    If you regularly run out of shampoo why not keep a bar of coal tar soap in - much better for your skin and hair than washing up liquid. I have very sensitive skin and can't use things like Dove etc but have had no problems with my regular shampoos - Palmolive Milk & Honey and Pantene Clear. I just stick to what I know - luckily Poundland in Leeds sell all these things!

    Have you tried Vosene?
