Q: What conditioner goes with this?

submitted by KaleidoscopeEyes8 - 5 months ago
  • A: Our Head and Shoulders BARE collection does not have a conditioner quite yet. However, users can use an anti-dandruff conditioner choice that contains an active ingredient, like zinc pyrithione, that is found in all Head & Shoulders conditioners. Head & Shoulders offers a variety of conditioner options to best suit the hair and scalp needs of the user – such as Head & Shoulders Supreme Detox and Hydrate conditioner.

Q: Can This product be used for cradle cap removal for a baby

submitted by Kgrover13 - 5 months ago
  • A: We do not recommend using adult shampoos on infants, as their formulas may contain ingredients that could irritate your baby's sensitive skin. For cradle cap, we suggest consulting your pediatrician for safe and effective treatment options tailored to your little one’s needs. Your baby's comfort and safety are our top priority.

    Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts about our Head and Shoulders Bare Pure Clean Shampoo! We're really sorry to hear that it left your hair feeling greasy and a bit weighed down. That's definitely not the experience we want for you, and we appreciate you bringing it to our attention. We’ll make sure to share your feedback with our Quality Assurance and Head and Shoulders Teams. Greasy hair can be a bit tricky and can happen for a few reasons. Sometimes, it’s just a matter of using a little too much product or choosing a shampoo that might not be the best fit for your hair type. We recommend starting with a smaller amount to see if that helps. If you’re still having trouble, doing a double wash can really help reset your hair. If your usual shampoo isn’t doing the trick, try a clarifying shampoo. Oh, and just a reminder to rinse really well—leftover product can definitely contribute to that greasy feeling! We’d love to hear more about your experience and help you out further. When you get a moment, feel free to give us a call at (800) 723-9569 or drop us a message through the Contact Us page on our website. We’re here for you!

    A few weeks ago, I discovered that the tiny little grains in my hair that I've had my whole life are dandruff. The dermatologist said it's mild and recommended Head and Shoulders and that'd I'd be fine. I have wavy hair, so I stick to sulfate-free products and was happy to see this option. It took me 3 weeks, but I finally put together that this was causing hair loss - including the chunk of about 45 strands that came out togeter while showering today. It also dries my hair out a ton and makes it very frizzy. I will not be continuing my use of this product, though I'm not sure where to go from here.

    Thank you for reaching out about our Head and Shoulders BARE Pure Clean Shampoo. It disappoints us greatly to hear that you experienced some hair loss and that your hair was left feeling dry and frizzy. That's definitely not the kind of news we want to hear from any of our consumers and we understand how devastating this may be. We appreciate your concern and want to assure you that our hair care products do not cause or speed up hair loss. It's important to know that losing between 50 and 100 hairs a day is considered normal. A great deal of work has gone into the development and testing of all our products to ensure they are safe for use. Additionally, we have extensive quality controls in place and our products are used by millions of people every year. Hair loss is normal and is a continuous process. Hair goes through a natural cycle of growth where each hair grows long, falls out, and is replaced by a new hair. If you are noticing a significant amount of hair loss, we recommend speaking to your doctor. Also, hair being dry and frizzy is usually a sign of it not being conditioned well enough. For a better experience you may consider using a rich conditioner after you shampoo and you may want to consider using a conditioning treatment to help with any excess dryness. 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.

    It did seem to help my scalp but it seriously killed my waves/curls. The light scent was tolerable. Rich lather. Not sure if I'll but it again. Ended up using some of it as body wash.

    Felicia - 4 months ago, Verified purchaser
    Wanted to like this, but it makes my hair feel like it's coated with something. It cleans my hair, but my hair feels like I added styling product to it. Used it without a conditioner. Didn't make my hair feel dry. Helped some with my dandruff and dry scalp, but hasn't eliminated either. Scent isn't very pleasant. Doesn't smell clean though. Smells like unpleasant, annoying perfume/soap. I'll stick with Head & Shoulders 2 in 1. I do like the eco bottle, this shampoo isn't for me. I have thick, short hair. People with fine, thin hair would probably not like having their hair feel coated and weighed down by whatever chemical makes this shampoo cling to your hair.

    My husband always uses head and shoulders or else his head gets itchy. This one works well for him. I like that the ingredients are cleaner than the traditional head and shoulder and that the packaging is less plastic.

    1 reply from Head & Shoulders team - 9 months ago
    Thank you for sharing your experience with our Head and Shoulders BARE Pure Clean Shampoo. While we are glad that you originally loved the product, it does sadden us to hear that your dandruff seemed to become worse. Please know that this isn't the kind of experience we expect any of our consumers to have and we understand how it can be upsetting. We want to assure you that none of our products can cause dandruff or make it worse. Causes of dandruff include changes in your diet, hormonal changes, stress, and more. To effectively control symptoms, it's crucial to use Head & Shoulders a minimum of 2 days a week for at least 6 weeks. For optimal results, we recommend using it every time you shampoo. It's important to continue using the product even after your symptoms have disappeared to ensure a dandruff and itch-free scalp. If you have a dry, itchy, flaking scalp, that does not improve after using an anti-dandruff shampoo or conditioner after 6 weeks, you may want to speak to your doctor. We'd like to gather more information so we can better assist you. Please give us a call at (800) 723-9569 or send us an email through our Contact Us Page so we may do so.

    Bill in Savage - 11 months ago, Verified purchaser
    The “less plastic” bit makes the bottle far too easy to squeeze, which pops open the top at the wrong times. Our first bottle was open in the grocery bag when we got home, creating a huge mess on the other items in the same bag. The other items were very light (band aids) so no significant weight on the bottle. As a shampoo it leaves hair very dry and flyaway. Won’t buy again.

    Thank you for providing feedback on our Head and Shoulders BARE Pure Clean Shampoo. It disappoints us to hear that you were dissatisfied with our product's packaging and that your hair was left dry with flyaways. This isn't the kind of experience we want you to have and we understand that this can be frustrating.
