True+Real Coal Tar Therapeutic Tar Gel Anti-Dandruff Shampoo 6 oz — 1% Coal Tar, Long-Lasting Scalp Relief

True+Real Therapeutic Tar Gel is an extra-strength anti-dandruff shampoo with 1% coal tar designed to reduce flaking and soothe itchy scalps.

This concentrated 6-ounce shampoo combines solubilized coal tar extract with a fast-acting formula to help control symptoms associated with dandruff, seborrheic dermatitis, and chronic scalp psoriasis. It is made to keep working after rinsing and is suitable for teens and adults who need a more robust over-the-counter scalp treatment. Use as directed — typically at least twice weekly — to maintain clearer, more manageable hair while minimizing visible flakes and irritation.

How does this coal tar shampoo help reduce scalp flaking?

The coal tar ingredient works to slow excessive scalp cell production and soften scales so they lift away more easily during washing. This formulation includes solubilized coal tar extract to remain effective on the scalp after rinsing, providing ongoing control of flaking and scaling.

• Contains coal tar extract (4% solubilized extract; 1% coal tar active).
• Reduces visible flakes and helps detach scales from the scalp surface.
• Designed to keep acting after you rinse for extended symptom control.

When and how often should I use this shampoo for best results?

For many users, applying the shampoo at least twice a week provides noticeable improvement in flaking and itching. Apply to wet hair, lather, leave on the scalp briefly as directed, then rinse; follow your doctor’s instructions if you have a medical scalp condition.

• Apply to wet hair, work into a scalp lather, and rinse thoroughly.
• Use at least two times weekly or per healthcare provider guidance.
• Consistent use over several weeks yields clearer-looking scalp skin.

Is this product suitable for different hair types and genders?

Yes — the formula is intended for men, women, and teens and works on a wide range of hair textures. It cleans and helps make hair more manageable while focusing on scalp symptom control rather than styling or conditioning benefits.

• Formulated for varied hair types: straight, wavy, curly, or coiled.
• Appropriate for both men and women with dandruff-related conditions.
• Can be integrated into a regular scalp-care routine alongside conditioners.

Are there any packaging or label differences I should expect?

Packaging may vary due to a recent label refresh, but the product formulation remains the same. Check the active ingredient list to confirm the presence of coal tar if you require that specific therapeutic agent.

• Label appearance may differ across batches, same formula inside.
• Verify active ingredient: coal tar 1% (solubilized extract 4%).
• Available in a compact 6-ounce bottle ideal for travel or trial use.

Who this is for: True+Real Therapeutic Tar Gel is intended for anyone seeking an over-the-counter, extra-strength approach to control persistent dandruff, seborrheic dermatitis, or scalp psoriasis symptoms. It’s a practical option for people who need a targeted scalp treatment that supports reduced flaking and less itching while remaining compatible with routine hair care. If you have sensitive skin, are pregnant, or take prescription scalp treatments, consult a healthcare professional before use.
