The moment you swap your anti-dandruff shampoo for a cosmetic one, you wash away the active ingredients that fight dandruff. Learn how to ensure maximum effectiveness from your shampoo.
When you think about treating dandruff, you probably think of the shower, but almost all the anti-dandruff action of your shampoo happens outside of the shower.
Indeed, after anti-dandruff shampoo has removed flakes, microscopic active ingredients fighting dandruff remain on the scalp surface to protect your skin from the factors that trigger dandruff.
Beware of cosmetic shampoos
A common myth is that anti-dandruff shampoos are harsh on your hair. Some people therefore use two shampoos: one to treat dandruff, the other to beautify their hair.
But this method is problematic: The cosmetic shampoo will make the anti-dandruff shampoo less effective, as it washes away most of the dandruff-fighting active ingredients, as well as the protection they provide.
Moreover, Head & Shoulders is absolutely not harsh on your hair.
We enrich each of our shampoos with essential cosmetic elements, such as rich moisturizing agents and nourishing ingredients. So, in addition to treating dandruff, you keep your hair soft and silky.
For even more hydration, discover our Smooth & Silky shampoo.
Check that your conditioner also works against dandruff
The same goes for conditioners. That's why we developed anti-dandruff conditioners that work in synergy with our anti-dandruff shampoos, to protect you long after your shower.
