You should avoid getting Selsun in your eyes or letting it come into contact with broken skin or inflamed areas. Selsun should be thoroughly rinsed from the hair before dyeing, tinting or perming. It should not be used for two days before or after any of these hair treatments. Take out hairgrips and remove jewellery. Avoid contact with metal surfaces.

If this occurs, stop using. Increased hair loss may occur when using Selsun. Dryness or greasiness of the hair or scalp may increase after using Selsun. Discoloration of the hair may occur when using Selsun. This can be avoided or minimised by thorough rinsing of the hair after treatment.
