KEUNE
Care Scalp Sensitive Soothing Shampoo
Cleanse sensitive, reactive or easily irritated scalps without compromising comfort with Keune Care Scalp Sensitive Soothing Shampoo, an ultra-gentle, sulfate-free and fragrance-free shampoo specifically formulated for delicate and allergy-prone scalps.
When a scalp is sensitive, stronger cleansing isn't necessarily better. Scalp Sensitive uses an ultra-mild, non-irritating cleansing formula to remove impurities while maintaining the scalp's essential moisture and natural balance. It is designed to help calm itching, redness, tightness and discomfort rather than leaving the scalp feeling stripped after washing.
The updated Scalp Sensitive range is enriched with Boswellia Serrata and prebiotic Inulin. Boswellia Serrata is highlighted by Keune for its soothing properties, helping reduce redness, sensitivity and discomfort while supporting the scalp's natural barrier. Inulin helps maintain the balance of the scalp microbiome, supporting hydration, protection and a healthier scalp environment.
Importantly for reactive scalps, the new formula is fragrance-free, dermatologically tested and remains sulfate-free. Keune specifically recommends it for sensitive, allergy-prone and reactive skin, including people experiencing scalp redness or irritation associated with hair and scalp-care products.
Keune's independent clinical study found that after just one use, 100% noticed a soothed scalp, 100% saw maintenance of moisture balance and 100% observed softer, more manageable hair.
The result? A gently cleansed, calmer and more comfortable scalp with maintained moisture balance and soft, manageable hair.

Scalp Sensitive Technology
Boswellia Serrata
Boswellia Serrata is the key botanical highlighted by Keune within the Scalp Sensitive range.
Keune describes it as having powerful soothing properties that help reduce redness, sensitivity and discomfort. It also helps reinforce the skin's natural barrier, supporting a healthier and more resilient scalp foundation.
Prebiotic Inulin
Inulin is a natural prebiotic that helps maintain balance within the scalp microbiome.
A balanced microbiome supports optimal hydration and protection, can help reduce scalp discomfort and supports the scalp's natural barrier function.
Gentle Cleansing System
The shampoo uses a combination of gentle cleansing agents including Sodium Lauroyl Methyl Isethionate, Sodium Cocoyl Isethionate and Sodium Cocoyl Glutamate rather than traditional sulfate cleansers.
This supports the product's role as an ultra-mild shampoo for delicate and reactive scalps.
Sensitive Scalp or Dandruff?
These are not necessarily the same concern, and choosing the right scalp shampoo matters.
Choose Scalp Sensitive if:
Your primary concerns are sensitivity, redness, itching, tightness or irritation, particularly if your scalp reacts to haircare products. It is fragrance-free and designed to gently cleanse while maintaining moisture balance.
Choose Dandruff Detox if:
Your primary concern is dandruff and visible flaking. Dandruff Detox contains the targeted anti-dandruff active Piroctone Olamine and is specifically designed to remove dandruff and soothe associated irritation.
Not every itchy scalp is dandruff, so treating the actual scalp concern rather than simply choosing the strongest cleanser is important.
How to Use
Apply to damp hair.
Lather gently through the scalp and hair.
Rinse thoroughly.
Repeat if necessary.
Follow with Scalp Sensitive Soothing Conditioner.
The Scalp Sensitive Routine

Scalp Sensitive Results
From an independent clinical study, Keune reports that after one use:
100% saw maintenance of moisture balance
100% noticed a soothed scalp
100% observed softer, more manageable hair
Keune also reports:
• Scalp tightness and discomfort is reduced
• Itchy scalp is soothed
• Visible redness is reduced
• Deep hydration
• Hair is left soft and more manageable
With Continued Use
Keune reports that after one week, when used at least three times per week, Scalp Sensitive:
• Enhances comfort after every use
• Reduces irritation
• Provides up to 48 hours of scalp comfort
• Provides up to 48 hours of hydration
Why Fragrance-Free Matters
Fragrance can be part of the luxurious experience of haircare, but when your scalp is particularly reactive, reducing unnecessary potential irritants can be valuable.
Keune has specifically reformulated Scalp Sensitive Soothing Shampoo to be fragrance-free, while remaining sulfate-free and adding microbiome-supporting care.
That makes it particularly useful for clients who know their scalp doesn't tolerate heavily fragranced or more active haircare formulas.
Pro Tip from About Face
If your scalp is itchy or uncomfortable, don't automatically assume you have dandruff.
Look at what else is happening. Redness, tightness, sensitivity after washing or reactions to particular products may point towards a sensitive scalp rather than a dandruff concern.
Scalp Sensitive is our gentler option when comfort and reactivity are the priority. Pair the shampoo with the Soothing Conditioner and Soothing Serum so you're not introducing a potentially unsuitable product again at the next step of your routine.
Persistent, severe or unexplained scalp symptoms should be appropriately assessed rather than continually managed by changing cosmetic haircare.
Care & Storage
Keep the bottle securely closed when not in use.
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and excessive heat.
Avoid allowing water to remain around the bottle opening between uses.
