A few years ago I went from rarely having a flake to suddenly being back from my recent operation and on harp*

Only H&S "Itchy Scalp" version seems to work getting at rid of it, no other dandruff shampoos do the job. Thing is it works perfectly and my hair is lush and flake free and I'm beautiful and confident as a result.

Wish Vosene worked, loved the smell of it although they've probably changed it now like everything else. I hate them.

Na I went through a phase of buying womens deodorant and moisturiser as I found at the time it smelt alot nicer

See I actually prefer the scent of lots of "for men" cosmetics - not so much the ones with that rank stale "inside of a car" smell but the musky woody type ones, better than the synthetic talc nappy bag vapours you get with lots of women's deodorants.

Marner and Me

The woody stuff is decent, however I did like the flowery stuff women use, have to use womens conditioner as men aren't meant to use it. My other favourite is bald men telling you what you should and shouldn't use in your hair, I'm thinking why should I take your advice, you fucking lost yours

I was buying some hair dye FOR MY WIFE a few weeks back, browsing the shelves for the right colour and a woman walking past commented to her friend "oh look ! a MAN buying HAIR DYE !" as if that was really weird.

I know nobody on here even needs hair dye, but you don't see much of that for MEN do you ? Or do you ?

I was in Boots the other day and they has a MENS hair section with Schwartzkopf Live dyes, except instead of the smiling ladies with red and purple hair they had moodsome looking men.

Men usually dye their hair cos they're going grey.  Women dye their hair cos they like the bright colours.

Ah, no, they were the same colours as the women's range...  https://www.livecolour.com/our-products/live-men

I bought some Bulldog razors a while ago (I get through razors pretty rapidly, and feel quite bad when I think about the amount of plastic I must've binned over the years) and they're just so obviously clunkingly marketed to be 'blokey', and are inevitably positioned with all the "male grooming" stuff in shops. I don't feel weird browsing that aisle personally, but some women might be put off by it and go back to the disposable plastic pink "for her" version instead.

Are those the bamboo ones? I like the look of them, but I already have a perfectly serviceable razor (and a cut-throat too now I think of it [nb]now there's a MENS razor[/nb]) I like browsing that aisle, all the expensive shaving brushes and oils and whatnot, but I rarely buy anything. Similar to enjoying perusing the stationary section though I already own far too many pens.

Surely H&S is already a brand for MENS?

Claudia Winkleman uses Head and Shoulders. She really does. It's on the telly.

Icehaven

I hope they still make that shampoo I like.

Yep, those are the ones (and with the ad campaign featuring a bulldog saying "global warming tho, bruv" or something). I'm sure there are other eco-friendly razors out there that aren't specifically aimed at men, but "green" brands do often tend to be on the pricier side which probably puts lots of people off unfortunately.

It's because it stops dandruff from falling on your shoulders. H&S is a specific anti-dandruffgravity shampoo.

Fixed that for SCIENCE.

willbo

I think, Dr Professor Jordan Petersen's day job, is sniffing the vats of H&S Men's, to confirm it is masculine enough. They just tip moose sweat and bulls piss into the vat, while he hovers his nose over it with nostrils flared. When it smells manly enough, he gives a thumbs up, and they start putting it in masculine bottles.

Q: How did they know Lord Mountbatten had dandruff?
A: They found his Head and Shoulders on the beach.

One of the first jokes I can remember my mum telling me, that.

This is related to the thread because: Louis Mountbatten was a man, and he left his head and shoulders on the beach after being blown up by the Provisional IRA.

alright cheers

I told that joke to my cousin while horribly pissed, forgetting momentarily that I was in the Comrades Club in Romsey, Hampshire, where Mountbatten had his ancestral home. We left soon afterwards.

Once they put a few drops of cider in it and he had to go in a coma in Russia for a month. They didn't go with that formula!

I get this product (the one with caffeine) and have found I get far less hair in the shower afterwards. Noticeably so in fact.

Which is bugging me. Shouldn't it read "Part of me is a recycled milk bottle", not "was"?

Making stuff unnecessarily gendered is fairly standard grooming industry practice, like those disposable razors they make pink and say they're women's when they're exactly the same as the other ones. The point is usually to charge more though, was the MENS more expensive?

My wife's razor blades (Gillette Venus) and mine (Gillette Mach 3) are pretty much the same price - but mine are matt black, and hers are encased in a block of some soluble substance I presume is for lubrication.

Shampoo is bad for your hair. I just use conditioner

take 2 bottles into the shower, not me


One for the getting old thread

I splashed out for some apple flavour head&shoulders last week (I usually just grab whichever shampoo is cheapest) and I have to say, my scalp feels great.
