Real stories from our first testers
Before Calmbay launched, we worked with a group of pre-launch testers who used the final treatment formula and shared their experiences. The stories below are from those testers: in their own words.
Some had been struggling with dandruff for years. Others dealt with recurring scalp irritation. All of them gave us honest feedback that helped shape how we talk about Calmbay today.
We share their first names only and have kept their stories exactly as they wrote them.

RESULTS IN 2 WEEKS
What I notice most is that before using this product, it would really “snow” from my scalp whenever I ran my hand through my hair. And now that no longer happens.
I notice that I find it difficult to use the product twice a day consistently. In the beginning it was a bit irregular, but over the past month I have used it properly.
At first I noticed some irritation on my scalp, but after about two weeks I started to see results.

Less itch
I suffered a lot from bumps and scabs on my scalp. This has significantly decreased since using this product. My scalp also itches much less.

Unmatched, best results
What I notice most is that the itching and redness of my scalp become much less severe. As a result, I scratch less myself, which also means fewer flakes come loose.
The product also does not dry out the scalp, unlike many other shampoos and treatments. For my psoriasis, this is not a cure, but it is definitely a relief in terms of comfort and eventually also appearance because of the reduction in skin flakes.
This product reduces itching, redness and dryness of the scalp and cannot be compared to other products that promise the same. As someone who has dealt with psoriasis my entire life, this has given me by far the best results.

Even good for psoriasis
I do not have dandruff, but I do have psoriasis. Another anti-dandruff shampoo also worked, but it did not combine very well with my dyed red hair. This serum came my way and the spray application really felt like an addition to my routine.
After trying it for a very short time, I already noticed a difference on my scalp. Less itching, fewer flakes, less scratching and therefore fewer scabs. And gentle on coloured hair.
For me, it is definitely a keeper!

After 20 days, less dandruff and very pleasant to use!
The product is very easy to use, and the bottle lasts a long time. I used it twice a day for 40 days and then daily after that, while also skipping one or two days occasionally. The bottle is still not empty.
I am curious to see whether the results will remain once I stop using it as well.

The product feels natural and my scalp feels calm.
I found it difficult to apply the product twice a day. I would think that once a day might also be sufficient and more manageable, for example only in the evening.
The issue was not the product itself. The product is pleasant to use.
Despite using it irregularly during the test period, I do feel that it worked. My scalp feels calmer.

An easy-to-use, non-aggressive product that improves my flaky scalp.
I personally suffer from seborrheic dermatitis on my scalp and in my beard. The condition sometimes flares up. The product seems to work better on my scalp than in my beard, where the dermatitis is often a bit more persistent.

The product is pleasant to use
Especially the spray nozzle, which makes it easy to apply directly onto the scalp.
No longer having to worry about flakes on my clothes.

It really calms the scalp!
It was great to be able to test this product, I am very enthusiastic about it. I do not have dandruff, but psoriasis, and the flakes became slightly less with use, but it works especially well against the itching. I am still eagerly waiting for a miracle cure for psoriasis.

Seems to work
The product seems to help. I mainly find it difficult to use it really consistently. Like with everything, as soon as I have less trouble for a day or two, I forget to use the product. Being truly consistent is difficult. I would also personally prefer the scent to be a bit more subtle.

Very pleasant experience.
After about 7 days, fewer flakes/dandruff thanks to a good spray applicator. The scent is still a bit difficult to describe.
