Overview
A clinical-strength anti-dandruff shampoo from Head and Shoulders formulated with 1 percent selenium sulfide, sold as a twin pack of 13.5 fl oz bottles for people whose everyday dandruff shampoo is not keeping flakes and oil under control.
This sits above the standard Head and Shoulders lineup as a step-up formula, aimed at scalps where regular anti-dandruff shampoo has stopped being enough. The twin pack format suggests it is meant for sustained use rather than a one-off trial.
- Twin pack of two 13.5 fl oz bottles
- 1 percent selenium sulfide formula
- Cited as starting to work twice as fast as standard formulas
- Advanced oil control for oily, flaking scalps
Who it's for
Suited to people with stubborn dandruff and oily scalps who have already tried standard anti-dandruff shampoo without success. Not needed for mild, occasional flaking that everyday formulas already handle.
Pros and cons
- Twin pack keeps a stronger routine stocked
- 1 percent selenium sulfide active ingredient
- Also targets scalp oil, not just flakes
- Can be used with every wash as directed
- No review text available in this listing to confirm results
- Stronger formula may be more than mild dandruff needs
Performance notes
The formula is built around 1 percent selenium sulfide, which the brand says works by reducing Malassezia, the scalp fungus linked to dandruff, along with inflammatory factors after about three weeks of consistent use. It is also positioned for oil control, addressing flaking and excess scalp oil together rather than treating dryness alone.
