Hi - I can't find this anymore (Prell). May I ask where on earth or in what stire it lives these days? It is such a useful product for oily hair and is also useful for removing excess color deposits when tint comes out a little too strong. Thanks in advance and no hurry, but I have the car warming up! To the original poster, go to the store and buy small bottles of several shampoos and see which one works on your hair. Regrowth that needs touchup always makes your hair oily fast, so you might want to take care of that. If money is an issue, you don't have to spend a fortune. There is are excellent products out there for a good price including my favorite (hard to find sometimes so I buy many at a time) Squeaky Clean (in an orange bottle made by Got2B. All the stores listed on the internet that are supposed to have it only have their other products in my area and it ticks me off. It is wonderful. One of my daughters uses the old standby called Alberto VO5 the one that smells like vanilla-mint and it is only 99 cents at the grocery store. I tried them all out and the scent in that brand does make a difference in the texture of the hair after shampooing. The vanilla-mint one makes the hair silkier and curbs oiliness pretty well. If we have a favorite shampoo that is good sometimes we use it "too long" and it causes buildup on the hair shaft. The answer is to strip it off and Prell or Got2B Squeaky Clean is great for that. Sometimes just use another brand a couple of times and that works too.

I'm waiting for the location of Prell! Hope my town has some that I haven't found!

Paul Mitchel and Prell
I have same problem. I like to use Paul Mitchel's Tea Tree Oil Shampoo, cuts down on the itching, can sometimes go an extra day. Once in a while I use a clarifying/chelating shampoo that I get from my son's salon. Also, I agree that color treated hair helps. As for where to buy Prell, try the dollar store. Comes in a different style bottle than the old days, now is in light green plastic bottle, probably about 12 oz or so. My mom recently gave me a bottle after cleaning things out and I used it to shave my legs and shampoo my hair.

Prell - I buy it at Wal-Mart in Athens, Alabama.
I have also found it at Dollar General.
