I wear a Helmet (hello!!) alot and it causes me to break out around my forehead. This stuff works very well for me. I use both the shampoo and the conditioner. It's like a 1-2 punch. While nothing is perfect (read: cheap) this product has been quite good. Now you can buy it at Amazon as well. I use Clear Poreformance as well.

I tried the conditioner because I'm always looking for one that won't break my back out. They have a shampoo, conditioner, and shaving cream all for acne. Unfortunatley, the conditioner did break me out but many people seem to swear by it. There is also a natural brand called Kairos (also made my back break out). All expensive but they do have a return policy. Clear Poreformance is 60 days. All available online only. I tried something new called clear poreformance.

My beautician said I was using the wrong products. I was getting a white build-up, on my scalp and huge pimples, that would pop in my hair (nasty)! I've been using Aquage and I don't have the build-up, anymore, but I still am getting the pimples. However, I have found, it is less of a problem, if I shower, right after sweating and blow-dry my hair, instead of letting it air-dry. And, I don't use any products (gel, hairspray, mousse), so that cant be it. My beautician said my comb, brush, flat-iron, curling-iron, shampoo, conditioner, hair ties, bobbie pins, etc., might have become contaminated with bacteria and she suggested replacing them. I haven't, though. My boyfriend gets scalp acne, too, so I don't know if it's worth replacing all my stuff. I get acne on my scalp, but my hair usually covers it.

I knew someone whose scalp was so sensitive that even anti-dandruff shampoo irritated his skin, but the Neutrogena shampoo didn't b/c it has no coloring or fragrance.

I'm using styling wax for my hair and I'm not sure if it's giving me acne or not. I don't have any scalp acne but on my forhead it's really bad. Do you think it could be caused by hair products?

He is a doctor though so he just pours some prescription 10% BP wash all over his head to combat it. I guess that wouldn't work for most people though because he already had white hair.

I used to have some mild acne on my scalp in one area (close to the hairline). I started using an anti-dandruff shampoo (Nizoral) and it worked great. It cleared it up pretty quickly. I would recommend that option to people. Hey Dan. I used to have some mild acne on my scalp in one area (close to the hairline).
