My doctor told me to try T-Gel (awful smell but seems to help my scalp). I purchased the Loreal Preference hair color, but am not sure if I should color my hair around the time of treatments with T-Gel. (By the way, I've never had a problem with hair color irritating my scalp.)

T-Gel is an okay scalp treatment.
However, it will not complete strip the color, but it may
alter it a bit. ( May remove a little)
There is also a shampoo know as, Poly-Tar shampoo,
found over the counter and your hair dresser, could
order you one that without a doubt will not strip you hair.
A bottle 6-8 oz. will cost you approx. $6.-$8.00.
T-Gel is not to be used every time one shampoos, or at least I would not recommend it.
Alternate every other shampoo with a shampoo for color treated hair and conditioner.
Take Care of it if you are coloring it.

Hi when I was younger I used to get it loads, because of the secnted shampoos I used to use, then only one that got rid of my dandruff was T-gel and it is drying but I rather have dry hair than dandruff LOL, I would try a leave in conditoner as well as the conditioner you are using and see if that helps. Avon do a good oxygenating scalp treatment to clear dandruff. I used it once and it got rid of the dandruff in a couple off days.and you only apply to the roots and not the whole hair. Tgel is different nowadays there just used to be 1 kind and now there is a type for dry hair a type for greasy hair and a type for normal. So maybe trying the one for dry hair will be better if you can find anything else to work. I find anti dandruff shampoos make my dandruff worse especially head and shoulders. Try mild shampoos and conditioners with no strong smelling ingredients.

Try coloring after you treat your scalp. Any washing of the hair will fade hair color, not necessarily "strip" color.Hair is made of microscopic layers called ''cuticles''. As we apply chemicals, heat or hot water, those cuticles open up. Your hair is then able to take in or release what ever you put on it. Use warm water to wash and cool to rinse. T-gel is for dandruff , it's really for the scalp not the hair, so depending on the length of your hair, don't scrub . Scrub enough to lather the shampoo and let it rest a while so it does it's job.

I use Neutrogena T Gel, and it is not color friendly at all. It does work on scalp irritations though.

No the only shampoo that will is "Preal".
I have been doing hair for over 30 years. I think by now I know a few things about hair.

I would wait until you are done with your treatment, usually just any normal shampoo will fade hair dye overtime, and that T-Gel is so strong..I've used that before, so just try to hold out until you are done. :)
