Q: Is this a color protect product

my favorite out of all the h&s bare shampoos

5 out of 5 stars

HZ - 2 months ago, Verified purchaser
out of all the head and shoulders bare shampoos, this one smells the best. It smells like candy canes but without being cloyingly sweet. The peppermint oil feels super relaxing on my scalp. It gently cleanses and makes my hair feel great. I can use it daily without any problems. Be sure to shake the bottle before using. the people complaining about this shampoo leaving a weird film/residue on their hair likely forgot to do so. I never write reviews but i just really like this shampoo and I would hate it if it got discontinued.

I had seen this product on social media and was skeptical. Decided to try it and glad I did. It resolves itchy scalp issues due to water and dry air. Very gentle and hydrating for fragile hair

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product has a nice smell that I wouldn’t normally associate with dandruff shampoos. It is thick in consistency and nice for getting up a lather. It rinses out easily. It reduces the itch very nicely.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Scent: The scent of this shampoo is straight up mint candy! The scent is strong but the mint does not feel strong on the scalp, quickly gone. Packaging: The bottle is ECO but very flimsy. The bottle has four lines on the back to indicate the product is a shampoo for the visually impaired. Texture: The texture is a little thick but it feels like candy thick. Effectiveness: You need to double shampoo wash. Like I said, it has a strong candy mint scent but is not strong on the scalp. I did not enjoyed this shampoo because after my hair was dry, I had intense dry scalp. This happened after every hair wash. Head and shoulder usually gives me dry scalp and I tend to avoid it. Since this product was aimed at for dandruff I decided to give it a go. I won’t purchase this product in the near future and I don’t recommend it. P.S: please excuse my weird video.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I liked the scent it smelled good but wasn’t too strong. I also love the eco friendly packaging. The shampoo left my hair feeling soft but a little dry. I think it’s a good value for your money & it has cleaner ingredients than other dandruff shampoos.

We appreciate you for providing feedback on our Head and Shoulders Bare Itchy Scalp Relief. We're so glad that you had such a positive experience with our product, that you enjoyed the scent, it's packaging, and that your hair was left feeling soft. Still, it is disappointing that you felt your hair feeling a bit dry. This isn't the kind of results we want for our consumers but just know that we are reporting this to the rest of our team. As you may already know, hair being dry is usually a sign of it not being conditioned well enough. For a better experience, we recommend using an anti-dandruff conditioner along side your shampoo so your hair gets the moisturization benefits it needs. We'd love to assist you further. When you have the time, feel free to write to us through our Contact Us page so we may do so.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was just ok. I really liked the scent but the shampoo itself didn’t do much for my itchy scalp. I liked the packaging and the attempt at making it clean but looking at the ingredients it’s not actually clean.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts on our Head and Shoulders Bare Itch Relief Shampoo. It's always a great thing when we hear how neat our packages are or how great our product smells, yet it's disheartening to find that it did not give you the relief from dandruff that you had expected. Our mission is to craft products that not only make our consumers feel great when using them but also deliver the results they need, so to hear that we fell short of this is a disappointment. You can be confident that we are sharing this information with our Quality Assurance Team as well as with the rest of the Head and Shoulders Team. It's important to understand that dandruff is caused by a sensitivity to a microbe found on the scalp that can lead to flaking, itching, and redness. For optimal results and long-term efficacy, we recommend using Head and Shoulders every time you wash. At a minimum, twice a week for the next six weeks, and continuing its use even after your symptoms have subsided. For even more effectiveness, you may want to consider pairing our shampoo with a Head and Shoulders conditioner. Please know that the safety of our products remains a top priority. We can assure you that all of our ingredients have been carefully assessed for their safety and effectiveness when used as directed. We would love the opportunity to learn more from your experience and assist you with finding the best product for your hair care needs. Please don't hesitate to give us a call at (800) 723-9569 or send us an email through the Contact Us page on our website. We're here to help!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve had success hydrating my scalp and losing any dandruff with this product. Usually in the cold weather my scalp dries out and I have flakes in my hair. When trying this product, I’ve seen a large reduction in flakes. The scent is nice and natural. It’s a thick texture that lathers up well. I really enjoy this product and it’s a great affordable option to try.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have a really dry scalp and normally use Head & Shoulders. I don’t think this one is as effective as the original, but it still works really well. I noticed that it just took longer to see the results this time. However, I HATE the mint smell. I don’t think mint scent belongs in a shampoo. I struggle because I really want to continue buying this as it’s priced well and works, but the scent…I don’t know if I can continue using it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been using Head & Shoulders Anti-Dandruff Shampoo for a while, and overall, I like it. The fact that the bottle is eco-friendly is a big plus for me. It does help reduce dandruff, and I noticed a difference after a few uses. However, I did find that my hair feels a bit dry if I don't use conditioner afterward. It’s definitely a good shampoo, but pairing it with a conditioner is a must for smoother hair. I received this product for free from Influenster in exchange for my honest review.

Smells phenomenal!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The smell is phenomenal! It has a sweet mint scent to it. I love the scent! I noticed the bottle was a different type of plastic and had a uniquefeelto it. Upon reading the back, it is an ecobottle with 45% less plastic. You can reshape the bottle with a hand. You can also squeeze and roll to get every last drop. The bottom of the bottle says it is a recycling number 2, I believe in my area that is actually recyclable. The shampoo itself contains minimal ingredients, which I love. I counted, and it's 9. Several are plant derived ingredients. I highly recommend people try this. It might be my new go-to for anti-dandruff.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Before using this I had consistent dry areas around my temples that would flake off. I have very dark hair so it was really noticeable and bothered me a lot. Now that I’ve been trying this shampoo for a couple weeks my scalp looks so good and there are no more flakes!!! I couldn’t be happier and WILL repurchase this product.
