Step 1 — Apply to Wet Hair and Scalp
Dispense ACTIIV Remedy Dandruff Shampoo into your hands and apply evenly to wet hair and scalp. Massage gently to create a rich lather, focusing on areas prone to dryness, irritation, or flaking.

Step 2 — Allow to Activate
Leave the formula on the scalp for 3 minutes to allow the active anti-dandruff ingredient and botanical extracts to take effect.
This step helps calm the scalp and visibly reduce flaking and discomfort.

Step 3 — Rinse Thoroughly
Rinse completely, ensuring all product is removed. Follow with your preferred ACTIIV Conditioner to restore softness and manageability.

Step 4 — Use as Needed
Use 2–3 times per week or as directed by your stylist or healthcare professional to maintain a clear, balanced scalp.
