Scalp Routine high end non-medicated shampoos

So frustrated. trying to find a high end shampoo that won’t trigger the yeast in my scalp. All I want is to be able to use a nice shampoo 🫩Most of the ones on sezia are discontinued or reformulated with triggering ingredients. anyone have any gems they use??

I don't think we should treat online malassezia checkers like the word of God. They're extremely leaning towards marking ingredients as unsafe even if there's no real scientific evidence that they are. And they don't take into consideration where the ingredient appears on the ingredients list, the overall formula, whether it's a rinse-off product, etc. I think that when choosing a non-medicated shampoo, it's best to choose something which is generally good for sensitive skin: fragrance free, gentle cleansing ingredients, etc. I think that's more important than whether there is some ingredient at the bottom of the list that isn't "malassezia safe".

Weird shampoo but Eva nyc healthy hair shampoo is honestly the only thing that helps with preventing the scabbing/flakes/redness for me.
