History of Head & Shoulders

Head & Shoulders is a renowned brand of anti-dandruff shampoo and hair care products that has become a household name globally. It was first introduced by Procter & Gamble in 1961, with its initial formula developed by a team led by a chemist named John Parran Jr. The name 'Head & Shoulders' originated from its dual purpose: effectively addressing both dandruff on the scalp and keeping the shoulders free from flakes.

Since its inception, Head & Shoulders has undergone continuous innovation and development to enhance its effectiveness and appeal to consumers. Over the years, the brand has introduced various formulations tailored to different hair types and dandruff conditions, expanding its product line to include not only shampoos but also conditioners, 2-in-1 products, and treatments. Its success can be attributed not only to its efficacy in combating dandruff but also to its marketing campaigns featuring celebrities, dermatologist endorsements, and catchy slogans such as 'You never get a second chance to make a first impression,' which have helped solidify its position as a trusted leader in the anti-dandruff hair care market. Today, Head & Shoulders remains one of the most recognizable and widely used brands in the industry, continuing to evolve and innovate to meet the changing needs of consumers worldwide.
