Many people have tried to get rid of dandruff using mouthwash– but does it really work?

It is claimed that alcohol in mouthwash – much like in antiseptic treatments – kills off the dandruff-causing microbe, Malessezia Globosa.

But despite being tried and tested by regulatory bodies around the world, it’s never been proven to work.

Strong alcohols can also have a negative effect on the scalp and cause irritation and redness.

Instead, choose a shampoo that contains a proven, active ingredient in zinc pyrithione.

You’ll find it in all Head & Shoulders shampoos and it’s been proven to get rid of dandruff fast and with regular use, keep you flake free.

And if you want a fresh, minty scent that lasts all day, try our Menthol Refresh Shampoo for great-smelling, beautiful-looking and flake free hair.
