1. First off, I actually ordered this stuff by accident. I thought that it was for oily hair, but I am glad I didn’t send it back.

   I’ve been battling dandruff since middle school, which would be about 15 years now. I’ve used head and shoulders, 3 varieties of selsun blue, nizoral and 2 kinds of tea tree oil shampoo. The selsun was prescribed by a doctor for treating dandruff and the tea tree oil was suggested by a beautician. Each would work for a while and then whatever effect they gave me would wear off. I actaully was starting to think that the dandruff, which I believe is bacteria (I could be wrong) was becoming resistant. I even once shaved my head thinking that that might be the answer.

   About 2 months after I ordered this American Crew shampoo, in the dry hair/scalp variety, I did some more research on dandruff, this time in regards to why the tea tree oil shampoo stopped working for me. I found a couple of websites that said that people misdiagnose dandruff for severely damaged scalp. What the human scalp wants to do is produce oil to protect itself, the oil being transferred to the hair. But since people in general do not want oily hair, we use shampoos to strip the oil. Stripping the oil causes the scalp to produce oil in greater quantities. This causes the scalp to dry out. Dry scalp gives a person the impression that they need dandruff shampoo, which dries out the scalp even worse. What a person should actually get is shampoo for dry scalp.

   After I found that bit of information out, low and behold, I had a bottle of this shampoo (dry scalp formula) in my bathroom. I’ve used it a couple of times and the flakes have almost entirely stopped, the itchy scalp is not anywhere close to as itchy and as long as I use it daily, the oil is manageable.

2. Being your Average Joe when it comes to hair care products (which means knowing pretty much NOTHING about them) I’ve spent my life using whatever was either handy, or cheap. A few weeks ago when I went for a haircut at my local barbershop, the lady who cut my hair asked what kind of shampoo I use as my scalp was drier than it should be. She recommended the American Crew brand that they had recently started carrying as their “preferred” shampoo in the shop. It wasn’t too pricey, so I figured why not, I’d give it a try. The stuff is amazing! My scalp has never been healthier, my hair is far more healthy, and the amount needed is far less than what I used to use. I typically have a civilian buzzcut most of the time (blame my Army years) so I don’t have a LOT of hair, but if it works this well on a very short haircut, I can only imagine what it does for guys with longer hair. Fantastic product, one that I’ll be buying for as long as they make the stuff.

3. I have been using American Crew shampoo and conditioner for 3 years now and my hair feels strong and healthy. I use them everyday and dont see hair falling during bath…which is a great feeling. Smells really nice too. Highly recommend this shampoo and conditioner.

4. I read the reviews for this shampoo before buying, and thought it sounded pretty good, but I think it’s just average. I would have given it 4 stars if it didn’t smell so bad.

5. The shampoo is great, it leave my hair nice, clean and not too dry, but perfume sensitive buyers be aware that this shampoo contains a strong men-style perfume.

   Other than that, it’s a great product.
