    Hims Dandruff Detox shampoo

    Hims & Hers is launching a new product as part of its Hims portfolio.

    The company said the Dandruff Detox shampoo, formulated with doctors' assistance, fights dandruff and supports scalp health.

    “Our Hims & Hers customers continue to demand more products that address hair health right at the source. Due to dandruff’s follicle-clogging impact and inflammation, dandruff and hair loss often go hand in hand—and with about half of people facing dandruff at some point in their life, we’re proud to serve customers with this addition to our portfolio,” said Dr. Pat Carroll, chief medical officer at Hims & Hers. “We set out to create an effective dandruff shampoo that helps to remove flakes, itch and scalp irritation. By incorporating avocado oil to strengthen hair strands and a refreshing evergreen mint scent that doesn’t have a medicated fragrance, people can proudly display Dandruff Detox in their shower.”

    Featuring a combination of zinc pyrithione to fight flakes and itch; and argan oil to nourish the scalp, the shampoo is vegan, cruelty-free and free of parabens, phthalates, sulfates and dyes, the company said.

    Hims Dandruff Detox shampoo is available for purchase online and at such retailers as CVS Pharmacy, Amazon and Revolve.

    Available in two flavors, hickory barbecue and sour cream and onion, each portion-controlled serving contains 12 g of protein, the company said.

In fact, a recent consumer poll we conducted found that approximately half of consumers crave savory snacks over sweets. Pure Protein Popped Crisps are the first in a number of planned innovations we have in store for this growing category,” said Fishman.
