Head & Shoulders is a well-known brand under the P&G umbrella and has been researched since 1950. The brand successfully incorporated the ZPT anti-dandruff drug into its products. After almost a decade, Head & Shoulders officially launched in the US market and was recognized for its effective cleansing, anti-dandruff, and scalp-soothing properties.
The brand has been available in Vietnam for a long time and is trusted by many consumers. However, recently, some people have claimed that the US version is superior to the Vietnamese one. So, what is the truth? Let’s find out!
1 Features of Head & Shoulders Shampoo from the US
The most popular Head & Shoulders product in Vietnam is the “Head & Shoulders Clinical Strength Anti-Dandruff Shampoo”. This particular variant is specially formulated with anti-dandruff and anti-fungal agents imported from the US and is suitable for both men and women.
Firstly, it contains citrus extracts that effectively remove excess oil from the hair and scalp while preventing the buildup of oil that can cause discomfort and a greasy feel. This ingredient is also present in the Vietnamese version of Head & Shoulders products.
The key differentiator is the presence of Selenium Sulfide, an anti-dandruff and anti-seborrheic dermatitis agent primarily found in the US version. Even in small amounts, it can effectively tackle severe dandruff and scalp issues.
Thus, Head & Shoulders from the US is highly effective for severe dandruff and seborrheic dermatitis. It soothes itching, prevents dandruff, and controls flaking. Additionally, it maintains the scalp’s moisture balance and pH level during use.
However, this product can dry out the hair because dandruff-prone hair is often oily, with damaged and flaky skin. By controlling moisture, it can further dry out your hair compared to regular shampoos.
As a result, it is recommended to use the US version only about 3 times a week and always follow up with a conditioner. If you have severe dandruff and need to use it more frequently, be sure to deep condition and oil your hair regularly to combat dryness.
2 Features of Head & Shoulders Shampoo from Vietnam
Although produced in Vietnam, the manufacturing process adheres to strict international standards and utilizes advanced equipment.
Moreover, Head & Shoulders Vietnam shares the same formula as its US counterpart, delivering excellent results for consumers.
Notably, all Head & Shoulders Vietnam products contain Zinc Pyrithione (ZPT), a dermatologist-approved ingredient that prevents dandruff, breaks the cycle of irritation, and stops its recurrence.
Furthermore, the Vietnamese version is enriched with essential nutrients that nourish the hair from within, reducing breakage and promoting soft, strong, and healthy hair, suitable for all scalp types.
Head & Shoulders Vietnam is widely available in supermarkets, grocery stores, and shopping malls, making it convenient for consumers to experience its superior qualities.
3 Which is Better, Head & Shoulders Shampoo from the US or Vietnam?
Overall, determining which is better depends on individual needs. Therefore, saying that the US version is superior to the Vietnamese one is not entirely accurate.
For those with severe dandruff and scalp issues, the US version may be more effective in addressing these concerns. On the other hand, using the US product may lead to drier hair for those with mild dandruff.
In contrast, Head & Shoulders Vietnam is gentle enough for daily use and is even milder than some children’s shampoos while still effectively combating dandruff and itching.
Additionally, a great anti-dandruff shampoo should offer more than just dandruff control. With the Vietnamese version, you can easily find any Head & Shoulders product in the market. Each product contains essential beauty ingredients, such as rich moisturizers and delightful fragrances.
On the other hand, Head & Shoulders from the US is not as widely available in Vietnam and is mostly sold through personal import channels. This situation can lead to consumers accidentally purchasing counterfeit products, and the price is usually higher than the Vietnamese version.
4 Conclusion
In summary, both Head & Shoulders US and Vietnam offer similar cooling sensations and benefits. Therefore, choose the one that suits your budget and specific needs without worrying about the country of origin.
