Hello jashnimal-ga,

I have managed to find resources that jointly answer your question.

Neutrogena (the company that makes this shampoo) states the following
on the product details page:

"How to use: Wet hair thoroughly. Massage shampoo into scalp. Lather,
leaving on hair and scalp for several minutes. Rinse and repeat. For
best results, use at least twice a week or as directed by a doctor."

http://www.neutrogena.com/ProductsDetails.asp?ID=62

An importer of Neutrogena products also has additional information
regarding the maximum number of times that this shampoo can be used:

"How to Use:

1 - Do not use more than four times a week.
2 - Massage into wet hair and scalp. Leave lather on for several
minutes, and then rinse thoroughly."

Note that this applies for both Neutrogena T/Gel Shampoo as well as
Neutrogena T/Gel Extra Strength Shampoo.

http://www.iws.bz/neutrogena/haircare.htm

So to summarize the results founds above, the acceptable range of use
for Neutrogena's T/Gel Shampoo is between 2 and 4 times per week. Due
to the nature of the active ingredient in this product (Neutar
Solubilized Coal – Tar extract), it would not be safe to use this
product daily as you stated in your question.

Hope this helps :)

Cheers!

Hello again,

I would not use another shampoo while using the T-Gel - the reason for
this is that there is an active chemical in this product, so it could
be harmful if you mix that with another shampoo. Just use the T-Gel
between 2 and 4 times a week and nothing else in between :)
