Redken Scalp & Cleansing: Clarifying, Dandruff and Thinning Hair
These are Redken's scalp-first products: a clarifying shampoo for build-up, a dandruff shampoo, and a leave-in scalp treatment for hair that's looking thinner. Each does one job, so pick by the problem you actually have.
What does Redken Scalp & Cleansing do?
Hair Cleansing Cream is a deep-cleansing clarifying shampoo. It removes product build-up, hard-water minerals, chlorine and excess oil that everyday shampoos leave behind. Use it about once a week.
Scalp Relief Dandruff Shampoo contains pyrithione zinc to help remove dandruff flakes. It's applied to the scalp before you add water, then lathered and rinsed, and it's gentle enough for daily use.
Thickening Treatment (Cerafill Retaliate) is a leave-in scalp treatment with 5% Stemoxydine, massaged into the scalp each day. It's made to help hair look denser over time with regular use.
Who is Redken Scalp & Cleansing for?
Cleansing Cream: swimmers, heavy product users, anyone whose hair feels coated or won't hold a style. Scalp Relief: flaky scalps. Thickening Treatment: hair that's looking finer or less dense over time.
These are cosmetic products. If you have sudden or patchy hair loss, or a sore, red or very itchy scalp that doesn't settle, see your GP or a dermatologist.

Redken Scalp & Cleansing questions we get asked
How often should I use a clarifying shampoo?
About once a week, or after swimming. More often can dry out the lengths.
Can I use Hair Cleansing Cream on coloured hair?
Once a week is fine for most colour. If you've just had a toner or gloss, wait a week or so.
Is the Redken Thickening Treatment a hair-loss cure?
No. It's a cosmetic scalp treatment made to help hair look denser with daily use. For sudden or patchy loss, see your GP.
Can I use Scalp Relief every day?
Yes. It's gentle enough for daily use.
