A member asked:
Is it bad to wash my scalp and hair with dial white bar soap? i'm allergic to shampoos and conditioners.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
May not be best: Dial isn't the name most would recommend for sensitive skin, given its traditional product has scent and coloring additives. However a new line might prove itself. Less so for hair. Patch tests can identify allergy to chemicals in shampoos and conditioners, and may help you find hair products that don't trigger allergic contact dermatitis.
