How to Remove Dandruff Effectively
REMOVE DANDRUFF BY TACKLING THE ROOT CAUSE
The right way to get rid of dandruff is to use an anti-dandruff shampoo that’s been proven to work against flakes, itching, redness and a dry scalp.
To do that, you need one with the right active ingredient, like zinc pyrithione which you’ll find in all of Head & Shoulders’ anti-dandruff shampoos.
It works to tackle the root cause – the microbe Malassezia globosa which is present on everyone’s scalp.
By tackling the root cause of the issue, it breaks the cycle of dandruff irritation rather than just treating the symptoms like other shampoos.
But we’ve gone further than that. We also include a second zinc compound, zinc carbonate, to maximise the bioactivity of the zinc pyrithione, making it even more effective against dandruff.
