no flakin' way anti-dandruff shampoo

don't let dandruff drag you down. our shampoo's active ingredient helps eliminate itching, tightness, dryness and flakes. for you science types, it's called pyrithione zinc (no need to pronounce it). no more brushing the evidence off your shoulders. no more suffering from harsh shampoos. with our lightweight, volumizing formula, you can tell flakes to flake-off and leave a great scent in their place.

Made a 6 yr old's bath night happier
12/29/2009
"I was looking for a good "itchy head" (dandruff) shampoo for a 6 yr old girl. I bought this product hoping she would like it & she loved it. "It didn't smell 'stinky' like daddy's." It's no longer a fight to wash her hair because it smells "girlie". AND it's working for her!
The last time I found it, it was on clearance at Meijers. I've used the search function on this site & am unable to find it within 120 miles of my zip code. Please don't tell me that this product has been discontinued."

So far it's a good choice
12/02/2009
"When I saw HE no flakin' way I was skeptical because most anti-dangruff shampoos didn't work very well for me. But, I've had a good experience with every other product I've bought so I thought I would give it a try.
It didn't eliminate my dandruff, but it was the best at managing it. My hair and scalp also didn't get the oily or greasy feeling others left me with. I think if I can find it in stores again I would make this my regular shampoo because with prolonged use I think it will reduce my problem more.
Please bring it to more stores in Stl again!"

So happy it's back!!!
11/27/2009
"I was so happy to find this in the store the other day....I used Herbal Essences Anti-Dandruff about 10 years ago and LOVED it...it was the only thing that worked!!! Like many others, I have tried just about every anti-dandruff product on the market, even special medicated shampoos, and while some helped reduce the problem, none eliminated it, until Herbal Essences! But after using it for a few years, it disappeared - I was devastated! Back to flakes I went, but I never gave up - I'd still look for it at the store occasionally. And Herbal Essences didn't let me down, their anti-dandruff shampoo is BACK!
I bought it 2 days ago, and after only 1 use - no more flakes. I am going to go buy it in bulk now!! I have a friend who has the same problem, nothing works for her either, and I told her about it. If she doesn't go out and buy some, I will buy her a bottle for xmas!! Spread the work ladies, we want to make sure it stays on the market this time!!!
The product has changed from 10 years ago (different name, different packaging, different scent different color), but the end result is the same - clean, manageable, fresh-smelling (not chemical!) hair - NO FLAKIN' WAY!!"

Best Product EVER

"I have combination oily skin on my face, neck and back. But I also have dandruff. Go figure. I've used Head and Shoulders but saw this at Ulta and decided to give it a try because it smelled so good. Now I use it every single day and I absolutely love it! It takes care of my dandruff and it has no down points. Thanks Herbal Essences!!!"

Lovin' It
07/24/2009
"I have been suffering with limp, oily hair for years. I have used every "dandruff" shampoo out there. The problem is that most of them all have the same active ingredient (should have read the label years ago). It is the other ingredients that have either dried my hair out or made it limp and barely pony tail worthy. As a last ditch effort I grabbed a bottle of Herbal Essence during a run to the grocery store. I have been using it for about a month now.
The other morning my 12 year old daughter stopped and asked me what I had put on that smelled so good. I told her the only thing different was my Herbal Essence dandruff shampoo. She didn't believe me and went to the bathroom to smell for herself. I had to fall over laughing when she came out of the bathroom holding the bottle and exclaimed "No Flakin Way!"
I'll never go back to lifeless hair again!
Thank you Herbal Essence.

GREAT for dry scalps!

"Oh my goodness, I have never found a shampoo I love more then this! I have to use a anti-dandruff shampoo, otherwise my head starts to feel like I've gotten bit by skeeters or something all over and I itch it like crazy! So I have always used Head and Shoulders, but I loved Herbal Essences for a while, but never could use it for the fact of my head. Once I saw this product, I had to buy it and try it...best thing ever! It keeps my hair light and fluffy (unlike Head and shoulders) and I don't have to use alot of it becuase it lathers so well."

Great shampoo
07/10/2009
"Your dandruff shampoo is so hard to find but it does the job and is so very kind to my scalp. I've got a very dry, flaky and itchy scalp and have tried various shampoos. Many stink and dont do the job not to mention that they are not kind to your hair. My hats off to you for this treasure...thanks!"

Hard to find but worth the search!
03/16/2009
"I looked high and low and was finally able to find this at Kmart and Ultas but it was well worth the search! more people need to know about this head and shoulders makes your hair all greesy but this works very well im noticing much less flakes and its only my 3rd day a few more days and i should be flake free! The scent smells good but could be a iittle better i like more clean smell than flowery. but they really need to market this more and sell this at more stores i mean its much better than head and shoulers and all the other dandruff shampoos ive tried in the past. really you should def. try this. it doesnt leave your hair overdry or too greesy its JUST RIGHT"

"I'm so excited that the Herbal Essences line has made a shampoo for people with dry scalp. Many anti-dandruff shampoo lines are pricey, and don't perform as well as regular shampoos in helping with volume, silkiness, etc. I'm very pleased that Herbal Essences recognizes this, and has made a product for it. I only wish more stores carried No Flakin' Way!"

It's A Miracle!
11/29/2008
"I have had dranduff forever and have been using Head And Shoulders for awhile. Those didn't work well, and they made my hair very unmanageable! Well this shampoo smells great, makes my hair so shiny and smooth even after rinsing! I use this shampoo once a week to get rid of any flakes and product build-up. Also this shampoo gave me a little volume at the bottom. Nice, weightless, thickness that's not big but makes your hair feel so much more alive!"

Good performance, strong scent
11/20/2008
"Someone in my house has dandruff (I'm not allowed to say who it is) and they thought this would be harsh like Head and Shoulders, but it's very light and volumizing. I use it sometimes, too, to protect my hair from winter elements. The only problem, though, is that the fragrance is very strong, so I had bugs flying around me all day, which got really annoying. But overall, this is a good product."
