WHAT CAUSES DANDRUFF & HOW HEAD & SHOULDERS HAS THE EFFECTIVE SOLUTION

In order to fully understand the extent of Head & Shoulders’ effectiveness and explore better how it works to your benefit, one must first gain clear insight on what exactly dandruff is, how it is formed, and what it takes to eliminate it fully.
Malassezia globosa is a fungus that lives on all of our scalps, and survives by consuming the natural oils produced by our scalps. It is effectively harmless to most people.Unfortunately, though, many are sensitive to one of the main by-products of Malassezia globosa: oleic acid. For those who are sensitive, Malassezia globosa will lead to symptoms that include itchiness, white flakes in the hair and redness/dryness in the scalp, leaving the scalp to be inflamed and sensitive. This is precisely what dandruff is.

As all shampoos do, Head & Shoulders works to rid your hair of any accumulated sweat, dirt and skin cells that have formed. But what separates it from ordinary shampoos & non anti-dandruff shampoos is the addition of an active ingredient – piroctone olamine – to effectively and swiftly fight dandruff, from the very first use. This active compound is scientifically proven to successfully prevent and remove dandruff, as its antifungal properties help control the spread of Malassezia globosa. We choose to use piroctone olamine because it targets both the symptoms and the root cause of dandruff, all at once. Apart from piroctone olamine that helps to fight against dandruff,  Heads & Shoulders Shampoo formula contains nourishing ingredients such as silicone that helps in repairing your hair, leaving your hair soft and smooth.
