Think you might have dandruff – when should you intervene with an anti-dandruff shampoo?
Don’t wait. As soon as you notice any signs of dandruff, you should begin to use an anti-dandruff shampoo.
Use a Head & Shoulders anti-dandruff shampoo when you start to see the symptoms of dandruff. It’ll help stop it fast, and give you long-lasting protection from flakes and irritation.
So, what symptoms should I look out for? Flakes are the most obvious sign of dandruff, as they’re the most visible. However, they’re not usually the first sign of dandruff.
Itchiness can be a sign that dandruff is starting to appear. Redness and dryness are also symptoms to look out for, which can be harder to spot.
When might I experience dandruff? Roughly half of people are susceptible to dandruff, but studies show it’s more likely to occur at particular times.
Hormonal changes can trigger a dandruff flare-up, so teenagers are especially prone to it. You might also find yourself with flare-ups of dandruff when you’re stressed.
Other external factors could also contribute to dandruff appearing, such as heat, perspiration, and pollution.
So, use Head & Shoulders as soon as you notice any of these symptoms to help stop dandruff fast. Use it every time you wash your hair for clinically proven relief that most dermatologists recommend¹.
