What is an example of a product used to treat loose dandruff?

  1. Hair tonic

  2. Styling gel

  3. Shampoo

  4. Moisturizer

The correct answer is: Hair tonic

A product used to treat loose dandruff is typically a specialized shampoo. These shampoos contain active ingredients designed to help reduce and eliminate flakes and soothe the scalp. For example, shampoos with salicylic acid or pyrithione zinc can effectively address the underlying causes of dandruff, such as excess oil or fungal growth. While hair tonics, styling gels, and moisturizers may offer benefits for hair styling or scalp hydration, they do not specifically target dandruff treatment. Hair tonics are generally used to promote hair health, styling gels are mainly for hold and shape, and moisturizers are focused on hydrating the hair or scalp but lack the necessary therapeutic ingredients for dandruff control.
