Curl friendly alternatives to Head and Shoulders? (self.curlyhair)

Due to my skin condition, if I go too long without using H&S my scalp health really starts to really suffer. I don't find H&S to be as harsh as people say but I wonder if there's a better shampoo out there with the same active ingredient (zinc pyrithione). Does anyone else here suffer with eczema, dermatitis, psoriasis, or other skin conditions linked to inflammation on the scalp? What do you use to balance scalp health and maintain beautiful curls?

thanks ahead of time!

That's a good idea. I have been using a root-comb bottle to apply the shampoo directly to the scalp and avoid as much contact with the hair. Then I can use a gentler shampoo on the mid-section and the ends. But as you can imagine this processes can be a pain :)
