Head & Shoulders Royal Oils Instant Soothe Scalp Elixir, 4.2 fl oz, No-Rinse Scalp Relief for Textured Hair

I usually don’t leave reviews, but this spray works exceptionally well. I’ve been dealing with itchy scalp for years. Thought it was the water so I got a filter for the shower head, tried dandruff shampoo, tried psoriasis shampoo, none worked and my scalp would get itchy after a couple hours of washing it. The only thing that kind of worked was to ignore the itch and not touch my scalp so that it wouldn’t get red and scaly. Tried this spray and had immediate relief to the itch. I used it once in the morning and once before bed and after about a month I had dropped down to using it every other day because I stopped noticing the itch. Now it’s four months later and I only use it when needed, which is when traveling and using hotel shampoo or about every other week. My scalp is healthy now and smells clean. I thought my hair was thinning but I think it was just damage from always itching my scalp because now my hair appears thicker. Thank you guys for this product. They say there is no money in a cure, so it is better to invent treatments to have return customers. I wouldn’t say this cured my problem but helped significantly and now I buy the product not because I’ve run out, but because I’d like to support a business that has helped me. Please never change the formula, it works.

My main reason for trying this elixir was to find an immediate, leave-in solution to manage scalp itchiness throughout the day. My baseline for dealing with this issue usually involved waiting until my next shower or awkwardly scratching, which becomes a major distraction, especially during stressful social gatherings. The last thing I want is dandruff, itchy scalp, and a smelly head. The benchmark for this product was to stop the itch effectively without leaving my hair looking greasy or smelling medicinal. Upon the first few applications, I addressed the "cooling" claims on the bottle. While it advertises a cooling menthol sensation, I found the actual effect to be quite mild rather than an intense freeze. It isn't overwhelming, but it provides just enough sensory feedback to let you know it's working. In terms of relief, the performance is excellent. It stops the itching sensation for a few hours at a time, which is exactly what I needed to break the cycle of habitual scratching. This has been a huge help whether in social situations or meeting a deadline where I used to get stressed and scratch my head; now I can just focus on the moment. The scent is also very pleasant, smelling fresh rather than like a chemical treatment. One of the most surprising aspects is the product's longevity. Looking at the small 4.2 fl oz bottle, I expected it to run out quickly. However, after using it multiple times a day for a month, the bottle is still slightly under half full. The spray nozzle is designed very well, dispensing just the right amount of product directly to the scalp without waste, and the cap stays on securely. Overall, this Royal Oils Elixir is a fantastic tool for managing scalp comfort. While the cooling effect is subtler than advertised, the itch relief is genuine and long-lasting enough to get you through the day. It’s efficient, smells great, and lasts much longer than it looks. For anyone who struggles with distracting scalp itch, this is a highly recommended spot treatment.

I have a very tight, dry, and itchy scalp. I have tried a couple of products to relieve the itching. This product definitely works as advertised. It is not a fix per se, or at least I haven’t gotten to that point, but it most definitely is a relief. I put it on anytime the itching is too intense and it cools down the area almost immediately.

Yes QUEEN! This is for us! You hear me? I have 26 inch locs (I’m forreal friend lol they long) .. and I use this daily. You can FEEL the moisture and it lasts. My scalp gets dry, cause my hair is so long. Takes a lot of moisture. I started using this a month ago. Noticed that the dryness is gone (not completely yet, but noticeably). Now .. I use this with the spray and I recently started with the shampoo and conditioner. Smells AMAZING! Light. No residue. Spreads easily.. not thick, but not super loose and thin. Feel like conditioner (thickness wise).. or a little looser. A little goes a long way. The bottle is somewhat small and the price made me side eye the screen.. but I tried it anyway (my dermatologist recommended it).. and I guess dude knows what he’s talking about lol

Immediate relief ! I had a sunburnt scalp that was VERY ITCHY for a few days and purchased this product because of the reviews . I sprayed on my scalp with my hair sectioned . It tingled at first from the menthol, but after about 5 minutes I felt immediate relief and a smoothing scalp feel. It is greasy, so definetely put on before bed or if around the house so it can marinate into scalp. 10/10 recommend !

This is a very good product. It soothes the scalp and the fragrance is really nice. So for a long time it was packaged in a 5oz bottle container. It now comes in the measurement of 4.2oz. I can't quote the exact price right now, if it is the same or not and i will continue to buy this product in the future. However..... the change from the pointed nozzle to apply to the pump cap should not continue. It just does not work well. Too much to figure out to open, not a comfortable way to hold the bottle to apply the product. I am glad I saved one of my original bottles so I can pout the product into it and get it on my scalp. Thank you for the moisture cream. Please keep it as is. No thank you for the new cap.

I actually didn’t read the label correctly before purchasing this, it says for curly hair. That doesn’t matter at all. My hair is fine and stick straight. The only thing is that the product can make my hair slightly greasy at the roots if I use too much, probably because of my hair texture. But I’m here to say I don’t care about that, because its benefits outweigh that one negative. And to off set that, I just put this on before bed so if my roots get a bit greasy, it’s while I sleep, but can be on my scalp 8 hours before I shower. I have Lupus which causes a very painful scalp. Kind of like if you have a tight ponytail all day and take it out and feel like you need to massage your scalp? That kind of pain. This is the only thing I’ve tried that lessens that. The cold tingle is wonderful, and now I wake up to a scalp that doesn’t hurt! It doesn’t prevent it from happening, so it’s more a band aid than a cure. But it’s nice for when I have flairups. Definitely recommend

All I need to say is that this feels wonderful. It invigorates my scalp so well that the sensation is pleasing. I have a dry scalp with some dandruff. I get itchy sometimes and then it gets to the point that it causes some redness, soreness, and discomfort. Shampoos work but a day or two after a shampoo the itching starts up again. That's when I really need something. I've tried other products and they never worked out and they never felt like the way this product feels. For one the tip applicator is convenient, easy to use, and sprays where I need it to spray. Sometimes I use this right after I shower.... best feeling with wet hair. Sometimes I use this with dry hair after styling....so good. It gives a tingling minty cooling sensation. Just the best. It feels soothing. Moistures the area. Relaxes my scalp and no itching throughout the day. The areas that were irritated really needed to feel the cooling, I could tell. There was no irritation at all. It's working on me as I type this. Doesn't weigh my hair down. Doesn't ruin my hairstyle. Even the smell is soothing. I'm going to use this product all the time from here on out. Price is worth it.

This has been the only product to bring me major relief and elimination of a dry scalp from the freezing work AC..

Very pleased with this product lefts scalp itch free. Does what it says. These products are the only ones that has worked.

Excellent for medium-length wavy hair. Completely moisturizes the scalp and soothes all dryness and the little white dry flakes for the rest of the day, even up to 2-3 days depending on the severity of your scalp dryness. Smells lovely, easy to apply right after the shower with wet or dry hair, lasts long, even helps with hair styling.

Does a good job

The product is amazing. It tingles and gives your scalp a cold sensation. Was delivered in 2 weeks so quite good.
