Damatol Medicated Hair, Scalp & Skin Treatment is a multi‑purpose antiseptic cream for hair, scalp, and skin. It’s formulated to address scalp and skin issues such as dandruff, itching, fungal infections (like ringworm), eczema, pimples, razor bumps, and after‑shave irritation — while also claiming to support hair health and growth.
Key Ingredients & Their Purported Benefits
The cream’s ingredients often include petroleum jelly, mineral oil, lanolin, coconut oil, peppermint oil, menthol, sulphur, and the brand’s “Damatol concentrate.”
-
Mineral oils / emollients (petroleum jelly, mineral oil, lanolin, coconut oil): Serve to moisturize the scalp and skin, soften dryness, and help lock in moisture — useful if skin or scalp is dry or flaky.
-
Peppermint oil + Menthol: Known for their antiseptic and cooling properties; these can help soothe itching, irritation, and may provide relief to itchy or inflamed scalp/skin.
-
Sulphur: Historically used in treatments for fungal and seborrheic‑type scalp conditions, dandruff, and to help reduce itch or flaking.
Main Benefits & Uses
-
Treats scalp issues: Helps combat dandruff, dry flakes, ringworm, scalp itching, eczema, bumps from shaving/barbering — useful for people with sensitive or troubled scalp.
-
Skin treatment: Can be applied to skin (not only scalp) to address rashes, pimples, irritation, or after‑shave bumps.
-
Moisturizes & softens scalp/skin: The emollient base helps relieve dryness, reduce flaking, and restore softness.

Supports hair health: Some users report reduction in breakage or hair shedding, and improvements in hair strength or scalp condition when used appropriately.
How to Use
-
Apply a small amount directly to the scalp (or skin area concerned), then gently massage with fingertips until absorbed.
-
Use regularly — often recommended a few times per week, depending on scalp/skin needs.
-
After application, you may follow with your usual hair-care routine (oil, leave‑in conditioner, protective style) — many use it before braiding, weaves, or after barber shaving.
