[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] i love these products especially since I struggle with dandruff and hair loss. this has definitely helped with that and i enjoy the smell. i just use it on my scalp let it sit and my scalp is dandruff free for about a week but does not dry my hair out at all! ive been using this brand for years but this product was a nice moisturizing addition to the line

New scent is so strong it'll gag you
I have used this brand for years, but now it smells SO strong. Guess I'll have to find a new brand because I popped open a new bottle of the smooth and silky that used to have a mild scent, it was so strong I gagged. I couldn't believe how strong it smelled. I don't want to put toxic fragrance on my head daily and I think it's a bad move overall for the brand. From what I understand, they increased scents on the others they make too, but don't quote me.

Great for frizz & smells great
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] You know those people that can just walk by & they smell so good because of their hair? This will be you if you use this shampoo. Smells amazing, the smell lasts a long time, and it really improved my frizziness. My hair all the way down to the scalp felt cleaner, and my dry scalp / itchiness is much better. I do recommend.

Smells great, leaves hair silky soft
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Smells really nice, but isn't overpowering. Definitely leaves my hair feeling silky, but this doesn't have as much dandruff fighting power as the original formula.

Wonderful shampoo
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This shampoo is wonderful. It is a great bang for your buck compared to other brands. It works very well keeping the dancers. The smell is amazing and it allows me to go at least one to two weeks without washing application is as expected and the smell lasts.

Love it
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really like this shampoo. The scent is pleasant and fresh, and it easily creates a rich foam. I have an oily scalp, and it cleans my hair and scalp well without feeling too harsh. My hair feels clean and refreshed, but not squeaky or overly stripped of its natural oils. It is such a nice balance between cleansing and being gentle.

Not for me
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I know this product has worked well for others, but what I thought was dandruff apparently isn’t because this made my scalp so much worse. My husband uses this brand and it works very well for him, but for me not so much I unfortunately will not be buying this again for myself.

Smells great
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love the smell of this but not so fond of how my hair feels after. My scalp is fine but my hair just feels rough. Great absorption and consistency I feel like you could get more volume but overall it was a good shampoo

Works!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great quality, has a similar appearance to the normal head and shoulders but smells much better. My hair definitely has less dandruff but unfortunately it did leave my hair getting greasy much faster.

Less frizz, less dandruff & softer, but greasier
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall I like this product, but it has some pitfalls unfortunately. My hair has felt softer and less frizzy since I started using this, but also gets greasier sooner than it used to. It’s easy to use and has helped with my dandruff though so I’ll take it! The scent is quite subtle.

Great for frizz control and curly hair
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I tried the Head & Shoulders Smooth & Silky Dandruff Shampoo and was pleasantly surprised by how well it controlled flakes while still leaving my hair feeling soft and manageable. It has a clean, fresh scent and gives a good lather without feeling too harsh on the scalp. I did notice it leans more cleansing than moisturizing, so I paired it with a richer conditioner to keep my curls hydrated. Overall, it’s a reliable dandruff shampoo that helps with frizz control and leaves your hair looking smoother with consistent use.

A dependable anti-dandruff shampoo that cleans tho
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] If you want a shampoo that targets flakes/itchy scalp while still leaving hair silky and manageable, this is a solid everyday option — though effectiveness can depend on your scalp/hair type (especially dryness or sensitivity).

Not my favorite head and shoulders
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have used head and shoulders in the past with improvement of my scalp, so I was happy to be given the change to try a new scent. It is floral and feminine-IMO. Given how strong this smells in the bottle, I was surprised to find that it doesn’t linger in my hair. This may be a benefit for those who are sensitive to smells, or annoying for those who love smelling their hair throughout the day. It lathers, but I need to add a good amount to get it through my waist length hair. Overall, it get’s the job done, and it does seem to smooth my hair a bit as well. The only issue I’ve noticed, is that it can also be a bit heavy, and my scalp tends to get greasy more quickly than with some other shampoos. I So, this isn’t my favorite head and shoulders, but it isn’t bad either. I’m grateful to have been given the chance to try it

Leaves hair feeling clean and dandruff free
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Silky Smooth and Flake-Free Perfection! I have been searching for years for a dandruff shampoo that actually works without leaving my hair feeling dry, stripped, or straw-like, and I finally found it! Head & Shoulders Smooth & Silky is an absolute game-changer, and it deserves every one of its five stars. Right from the first wash, I noticed a difference. The Pyrithione Zinc does its job flawlessly—my scalp is calm, healthy, and I am completely flake-free. But the true miracle is how it treats the rest of my hair. incredible Softness: My hair has never felt this soft or looked this healthy while using a medicated shampoo. It truly lives up to the "Smooth & Silky" name All-Day Frizz Control: The claim of "24 hour frizz control" is completely accurate. Even in high humidity, my hair is manageable, smooth, and has a beautiful, natural shine. Color Safe Confidence: As someone with color-treated hair, I was hesitant, but the CLINICALLY PROVEN COLOR SAFE formula gave me peace of mind, and my color looks as vibrant as ever. This is the perfect shampoo for ALL HAIR TYPES that struggle with dandruff but don't want to compromise on hair health and style. It's the only bottle you need in your shower. Highly, highly recommend!

Good Shampoo
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This shampoo works great. Cleanses my hair nicely and it seems to be helping with buildup and itchiness. Pairs well with the conditioner and leaves my hair feeling clean.

Yes
Apparently the "fragrance" contained in these bottles is one of life's great mysteries. I've searched everywhere and all I get is fruit and floral. Not complaining at all as I absolutely love it ..before during and after. Also love how light and full my hair looks and how soft and manageable it is after usage. A little high on price but one of my go to shower choices especially in the winter.
