Answer: Yes, Sphagnum Botanicals Peat Mud Psoriasis Shampoo is safe for color-treated and chemically treated hair. Many customers with salon-treated hair worry that psoriasis shampoos or medicated shampoos might strip away hair dye or damage chemical treatments. Our formula is designed to be gentle while still effective at calming scalp irritation.
Why it’s safe for treated hair?
Free from harsh surfactants: Our shampoo contains no SLS or SLES, the common foaming agents that can strip away color and weaken chemically treated hair.
pH-balanced formula: The shampoo is carefully balanced at a scalp-friendly pH, helping protect the integrity of both natural and color-treated hair.
Dermatologist-inspired ingredients: With salicylic acid, menthol, and peat extract, the formula supports scalp health without over-drying or roughening hair shafts.
What makes our shampoo different?
Unlike some dandruff or psoriasis shampoos that prioritize flake removal at the expense of hair quality, our formula was crafted with scalp relief and hair protection in mind. It soothes itching, reduces flaking, and supports scalp renewal while respecting salon treatments.
Tips for best results
Use as directed: Apply to wet hair, gently massage into the scalp, and rinse thoroughly.
- Consult your stylist if unsure: While our shampoo is safe, every treatment is different—especially keratin, perms, or very lightened hair. Your stylist can give personalized advice.
- Alternate with a conditioner: Pairing with a color-safe conditioner can help lock in moisture.
