What is TAGRID 1% Ketoconazole Shampoo used for?
A: Comprehensive scalp support. It is professionally engineered to wash away stubborn flakes and soothe persistent scalp itch by supporting a balanced scalp environment.
How does it work against Malassezia fungus?
A: Supports scalp balance.
The clinical-strength 1% Ketoconazole helps maintain a clean, comfortable, and flake-free surface while our botanical synergy calms visible irritation.
How quickly will I see visible results?
A: Results in 1-2 weeks. While itch relief is typically immediate due to our cooling herbal blend, visible flake reduction is usually achieved within 3-4 consistent applications.
Does it help with hair thinning or loss caused by dandruff?
A: Yes, by protecting follicles. By helping reduce the chronic itch-scratch cycle, it creates a healthy scalp environment for natural hair growth to thrive.
Can I use TAGRID for fungal issues on my face, neck, or body?
A: Yes, best paired with TAGRID Cream. For fungal spread on the face, hairline, or body, use the shampoo as a therapeutic wash and apply our Antifungal Cream for long-lasting, leave-on recovery.
Can I use this on my beard for "beard flakes"?
A: Absolutely. It is highly effective for beard flakes and scalp discomfort. For thick beards, we recommend drying thoroughly after washing to maintain a balanced skin environment, followed by TAGRID Cream if needed.
Is it safe for color-treated, bleached, or permed hair?
A: Yes, it is color-safe. Our pH-balanced formula is specifically engineered for salon-treated hair. It cleanses the scalp with clinical precision without stripping the vibrancy or essential moisture from color-treated or bleached strands.
How often should I use it for the best results?
A: Every 3-4 days for 8 weeks.
For optimal results, use the shampoo every 3 to 4 days for a continuous 8-week period to fully restore the scalp environment. Once your scalp is balanced, switch to maintenance mode (using as needed) to support long-term resilience and stay flake-free.
Will it leave my hair dry and "straw-like" after washing?
A: No. This is a key advantage over competitors. Our 2-in-1 conditioning formula keeps hair soft and manageable, eliminating the need for heavy separate conditioners.
Does it have a strong medicinal or chemical scent?
A: No, it has a refreshing herbal scent. We've replaced the harsh sulfur-like smell of old-school shampoos with a clean, botanical fragrance of Tea Tree and Peppermint.
Why do I feel a cooling or tingling sensation?
A: It's the active cooling relief. Mentha and Borneol provide an immediate soothing sensation to help calm itching. This is a normal signal that the botanical extracts are active.
Is this shampoo safe for children?
A: For adults and children 12+. It is not intended for infants. For children under 12, please consult a pediatrician to ensure the treatment is appropriate for their skin.
What precautions should I take for sensitive skin?
A: Perform a 24-hour patch test. Due to the high concentration of herbal extracts, we recommend a test behind the ear before your first full application to ensure compatibility.
Will my scalp become dependent on this shampoo?
A: No.
TAGRID is engineered to restore your scalp's natural balance, not create dependency. Persistent flaking can recur due to high-sugar diets, stress, or lack of sleep, which trigger scalp imbalance.
That's why we advocate for "Maintenance Mode": once your environment is stabilized, occasional use (once a week) helps maintain this healthy equilibrium, ensuring your scalp remains resilient against external triggers.
