The product

Done with symptoms of a sensitive scalp like dryness, itchiness, and dandruff?

Boy, do we have a product recommendation for you.

Head & Shoulders Sensitive Scalp Shampoo deals with all of the above, plus, it improves shine and softness thanks to a pH-balanced formula that's infused with aloe vera. Another bonus? It’s free from added parabens, phosphates and paraffins.

If you don’t believe the hype, maybe our Review Crew’s® co-sign will be the seal of approval you need to snag a bottle for $15 on your next supermarket shop.

Here’s what our panel of Review Crew® testers thought about this dandruff-banishing and budget-friendly shampoo.

The panel

Beauty Crew sent the Head & Shoulders Sensitive Scalp Shampoo to a panel of women aged 18 to 50 with scalp concerns such as a sensitive scalp, dry scalp, itchy scalp and dandruff.

The lowdown

Here’s what the Review Crew® loved about the Head & Shoulders Sensitive Scalp Shampoo.

It minimised their dandruff: Our Review Crew® members that had an issue with persistent dandruff said they noticed a minimisation of flakiness immediately after using the shampoo. Their dandruff didn’t come back following use of the shampoo either.

It helped to rebalance their scalps: Reviewers with sensitive scalps said that the shampoo helped to effectively cleanse their hair without stripping it of natural oils and drying it out.

It left their hair soft and shiny: After using the shampoo Review Crew® members said they noticed that their hair looked more shiny and felt softer than usual.

The verdict

“This shampoo really works. I tried it on myself and my son and it helped so much. Both of us have a very dry scalp and we get a lot of flakes. After one wash we hardly had any flakes left in our hair and they didn't come back again. I loved the smell, very fresh and almost like an apple, but not at all overpowering. It also cleaned my hair really well, and left it feeling soft and shiny. I will definitely be getting this again. If you have struggled with dandruff you have to give this shampoo a try.”

“I've tried many different shampoos and treatments for dandruff but this one stands out. This smells really pleasant and leaves my hair feeling clean and refreshed. After only using it for a few weeks, I noticed my dandruff had decreased heaps. Another great thing about this shampoo is that it doesn't leave my hair feeling dry or stripped of its natural oils. It's gentle enough to use daily and has helped to improve the overall health of my hair and scalp.”

“I loved this product, it left my hair feeling silky and smooth and my scalp has honestly never felt better. I’d never considered using a head and shoulders product as I don’t suffer from dandruff, just some itchiness and sensitivity. I’m so glad I tried it because it’s been amazing for my scalp, and my hair has also benefited, feeling so clean and fresh after each wash. I double shampoo at each wash, just a small amount goes such a long way, and then condition the ends with my normal salon condition and my hair is left smelling great, feeling clean and super shiny! I’d recommend this product to anyone with a sensitive scalp. The smell is also lovely and not at all overpowering which is great as I can be quite sensitive to smell.”
