Best one by far.
I don’t have dandruff, but I have a dry scout flakes and out the head and shoulders that I’ve tried. This is the best one my far and it smells amazing compared to the others. It doesn’t leave my hair feeling classified stripped, and we don’t need to use as much as the others as well so that’s a huge plus.

Horrible.
It’s so bad. I used hair oil before washing my hair with this shampoo and it washed out nothing. It made my hair look very oily when I dried it. It also gave me even more dandruff. Would not recommend if you want a product that removes dandruff and cleans good.

Thank you for your feedback on Head & Shoulders Dry Scalp Care Anti-Dandruff Shampoo. We are sorry to hear about your experience. Your report is unexpected and we are sharing your comments with the rest of our team. As you likely already know, hair can feel dirty, oily, or greasy if the product used is more moisturizing than what is needed for your hair’s texture or condition. We would recommend using a less moisturizing shampoo and on occasion using a clarifying shampoo to remove product buildup to restore hair cleanliness. We’d also like to let you know that none of our products can cause dandruff or make it worse. Some things that can cause dandruff are changes in diet, hormonal changes, stress, and changing your hairstyle without changing your shampoo. Also, a flaky, itchy scalp may not always be dandruff. Flaking could be residue from a build-up of hairsprays or other grooming products. If you have a dry, itchy, flaking scalp that does not improve after using anti-dandruff shampoo/conditioner for six weeks you should speak to your doctor. Please feel free to call us at (800) 723-9569 or email us through our Contact Us page for further assistance.

Makes hair greasy
No more dandruff but now I have to retrain my hair. I use to go 5-6 days between washes and now it’s greasy on day 2, even though I stopped using this shampoo.
1 reply from Head & Shoulders team - 8 months ago
We appreciate you for sharing your encounter with our Head and Shoulders Dry Scalp Care Shampoo with Almond Oil. We're sorry to hear that your hair was left a bit greasy after only two days. That's not the experience we want our consumers to have and you can be sure that we are addressing this with the rest of our team. In the meantime, to get rid of any excess grease, we recommend washing your hair with a clarifying shampoo. Hair being greasy can be sometimes caused by the product not being fully rinsed out. Be sure you have completely rinsed out your shampoo or conditioner or the problem may stay. Also, greasiness can also be caused by using a product too rich for your hair type. Try using a shampoo with little to no hydrating benefits and see if that helps. We'd like to assist you further. When you have the time, please give us a call at (800) 723-9569 or send us an email through our Contact Us Page.

Types of head and shoulders
One word psoriasis. I have had psoriasis since a kid only in my hair, I’ve used steroids that bleach, shampoo that is chemical filled nothing kept it away. I used head and shoulders when they only had one kind and then kind of fell off using it because it wasn’t 100% helping. This specific one is the one that made the itchiness dryness and patches disappear! Highly recommend if you have the issues i have had

oily buildup
It works good for its purpose, getting rid of dandruff. However, I normally use the apple scented H&S but decided to give this one a try. Now every time I use this and go to blow dry my hair, I can feel oil buildup on my fingers. Id say if your scalp is more on the drier side then this might work better for you.

Product Quality Changed
I’m using this product more than 5 years. It gives me a good result. But recently purchased one has no same quality as before. Before shampoo was thick now it is loose and looks like normal shampoo. It’s doesn’t work like previous dandruff are coming back soon after using.

Smells like a wet dog
I’m not a big fan of this. It smells like wet dog and leaves my hair dry and feeling like it has residue on it. It doesn’t lather up very well no matter how many times I wash and it never feels like it’s rinsed out completely. I end up using my husbands head and shoulders with old spice. It’s smells better, rinses out better and leaves my hair feeling better.

Don't buy almond oil sku
Hate this! Hair feels gummy after washing. Makes it harder to style/blow dry because of the gummy texture! Don’t buy this almond oil version.

Great brand, bad scent
I switched to this scent from the original scent and this is nauseating. Sickeningly sweet, kind of old-ladyish, and it's been hours since I showered, my hair is dry, and the smell coming from my hair is so strong I've got a migraine.

Hello Karter, thank you for taking the time to let us know about your encounter with our Head & Shoulders Dry Scalp Care with Almond Oil Shampoo. Our apologies you became nauseated from the scent and that the scent is still present after hours since showering which has now caused you to have a migraine.

Because we want to ensure your comments get the attention they deserve, we’d like to collect some additional information.

Great for Natural hair
I tend to have not only dry hair, but low porosity type 4c hair. Therefore moisture is something that my hair craves, but has a hard time holding onto. I love this shampoo because my hair never feels overly dry, but it does a great job of keeping my dandruff at bay, and also keeping my hair mositurized. I've tried other brands but I always go back to Head and shoulders. This one and the tea tree oil are great for me because I have locs. Hope this helps someone make a choice for their hair. I also have a 2 and 1 that I use for travel, and it works well, but I prefer separate, because I use a different type of conditioner.
