Head and Shoulders dandruff shampoo, but the best way to keep away dandruff is to wash your hair very well and keep your scalp moisturized, by conditioning with conditioner two times a week or ask your hair stylist!

I have to add again, that not all hair is created equal they are different as dandruff is. Hence everyone has to find out for themselves what works and what does not. My advise is to try different things one thing at a time and not if you have to look good on the following morning. So weekends and holidays are perfect. Also give the product some time to actually take action. No dandruff will disappear over night and some products like vitamins need weeks to adjust the whole system. Also take some rest between two testing episodes to be sure that you do not experience interactions between the two products. In addition the result of some products will wear off or work better or worse together with other products. Hence it is a big research by trial and error to find out what works best for your own hair and dandruffs.
