Scalp Care Shampoo

Use cautionHairFrom United States

TRESemmé Scalp Care Shampoo is a hair with 32 ingredients. It is rated "use caution" in pregnancy because it contains Sodium Salicylate. Common allergens: fragrance, essential oils.

Sensitive skin: fragrance, essential oils Why?
  • fragrance: Fragrance or parfum, and scent ingredients listed by name, such as linalool and limonene. The most common cause of skincare allergies; worth avoiding if you have eczema, rosacea, or very sensitive skin.
  • essential oils: Plant oils such as tea tree, lavender, citrus peel, and peppermint. Natural, but a common cause of irritation and allergies, especially on sensitive or broken skin.

These flags don't affect the pregnancy rating. They point out the ingredients most likely to make skincare sting, itch, or cause a rash. If your skin is sensitive, or one of them has bothered you before, you may want to skip the product or patch-test it first. Most people use them without a problem.

Is TRESemmé Scalp Care Shampoo safe to use during pregnancy?

Jouaxia rates TRESemmé Scalp Care Shampoo "Use caution" for pregnancy because it contains Sodium Salicylate. Salicylic acid / BHA: ACOG says over-the-counter salicylic acid products may be used if needed, but absorption rises with frequent use or large areas; avoid high-strength peels (MotherToBaby/ACOG, Bozzo et al. 2011). This is general information, not medical advice. Check with your OB-GYN or dermatologist.

Does TRESemmé Scalp Care Shampoo contain fragrance or other common allergens?

Yes. TRESemmé Scalp Care Shampoo contains fragrance, essential oils, which can bother sensitive skin. This doesn't affect its pregnancy rating, and most people use these ingredients without a problem; if your skin is sensitive or you've reacted to one before, patch-test it first or look for an alternative.
