FAQ: DOES HEAD & SHOULDERS DAMAGE YOUR SCALP?

No – in fact, Head & Shoulders has been proven to take care of your scalp and keep it – and your hair – healthy.

Dandruff is a sign that your scalp isn’t at full health. As well as flakes, you can also experience itching and dryness as dandruff causes damage to the scalp’s outer layer of skin cells.

Head & Shoulders doesn’t just remove flakes, it helps to eliminate the irritants that were bothering the scalp.

This allows the skin to regain its natural, healthy balance, relieving dryness and itch.

Our shampoos and conditioners also provide ongoing protection against the daily stresses like pollution, heat or sweat that can aggravate dandruff. Used regularly, they give your scalp an invisible, protective shield that helps to keep your scalp healthy.

If you have a sensitive scalp, we also have a super-gentle range, Head & Shoulders Purely Gentle that’s been designed to be tough on dandruff but kind on gentle skin.
