This shampoo is for anyone who wants a deep, refreshing cleanse and a revitalized scalp. It suits all hair types and is an especially good match if you have an oily scalp, build-up from products, or simply love an invigorating tea tree, peppermint and lavender tingle. It's color-safe, so it works for color-treated hair, and it's gentle enough for regular use. Because it does contain sulfate surfactants for a thorough clean, those wanting a sulfate-free formula may prefer another option.

Use it when you want hair that feels genuinely clean and a scalp that feels awake. Paul Mitchell's signature Tingle Complex — tea tree, peppermint and lavender — creates a cooling, invigorating sensation while the formula washes away impurities, excess oil and build-up, leaving hair full of vitality and luster.

It's color-safe, vegan, paraben-free and cruelty-free, made with 100% Australian tea tree, and suitable for all hair types — a reliable everyday cleanser with an aromatherapy-inspired scent.

Using Paul Mitchell Tea Tree Special Shampoo is easy!

1. Start by wetting your hair in the shower.
2. Apply a generous amount of the shampoo to your scalp and massage it in with your fingertips.
3. Work the shampoo through the ends of your hair.
4. Rinse the shampoo out thoroughly.
5. Apply a conditioner if desired and rinse out.
6. Style your hair as usual.

Pros

• Deep-cleanses and removes excess oil and product build-up.
• Cooling tea tree, peppermint and lavender tingle that refreshes the scalp.
• Color-safe, vegan, paraben-free and cruelty-free.
• Made with 100% Australian tea tree; suitable for all hair types.
• A little goes a long way, and it's available in large salon sizes.

Cons

• Contains sulfates (SLS/SLES), so it isn't a sulfate-free formula.
• The strong tea tree scent and tingle aren't for everyone.
• Can feel clarifying, so very dry hair may want to follow with a conditioner or mask.
