Definitely. You can think of our products as anti-dandruff shampoos and conditioners that give you beautiful hair. Or as superb shampoos and conditioners that happen to clear – and fight – dandruff. Whether you use a shampoo alone or with one of our conditioners, you’ll have hair that’s soft, manageable, and shiny – and which smells gorgeous, too.
No, you'll enjoy the same dandruff protection from head & shoulders for as long as you use it. You won't become unresponsive to the active dandruff-fighting ingredients, nor will the effectiveness of the dandruff-fighting agents decline.
Not at all – quite the opposite, Actually, the dandruff condition is harsh on hair. Scientific discoveries have shown that a scalp that is itchy or dry with dandruff has a negative effect on your hair’s shine. The itching and scratching that can accompany dandruff can also increase hair damage due to scratching. Our shampoo formulas are gentle and pHs balanced, and have six times the moisturisers of most non-conditioning shampoos so they always leave hair soft and manageable. All our shampoos are gentle enough for daily use – even on colour-treated hair. Plus, our conditioners are rich in intensive moisturisers that leave hair feeling silky and soft.
Simple: regular use will ease flakes and itching. Ideally, you should wash with head & shoulders at least three times a week for visibly flake-free hair... All head & shoulders shampoos are gentle enough to use every time you shampoo. If you use a conditioner, ensure it’s an anti-dandruff one. Doing so increases the effectiveness (vs. cosmetic conditioner). If you use an ordinary conditioner, you rinse away up to 70% of the dandruff-fighting ingredient, ZPT, which is deposited by head & shoulders Shampoo, and lessen your chances of fighting dandruff. By replacing your conditioner with head & shoulders conditioner, you could increase dandruff-fighting effectiveness by up to 78%.
head & shoulders is harsh on dandruff, but not on hair – as head & shoulders is carefully designed to take care of hair while delivering potent anti-dandruff efficacy.
