Don't use harsh shampoos like Head and Shoulders if you want a shot at keeping your hair.

Curse you, Head and Shoulders! fist shaking

Citation needed (grew up on those shampoos, thick as ever in my 40s). I think genetics plays the bigger.role here, right?

I second the request for a citation.

Feel free to refute this, but here’s an article I found that suggests there’s little evidence that Head and Shoulders is bad for your hair - at least the ones that aren’t Clinical Strength.

Minor anecdote: I used to have severe dandruff, then I started using Aveeno’s Apple Cider Vinegar products and that helped a LOT, but now I use the ACV H&S and I haven’t had any real complaints since the switch.

I've been using it for twenty years and have just the slightest thinning in one small spot. You can't even tell when my hair dries.
