    Here's how to find the right product for your type of dandruff!

  • Split depiction of different types of dandruff: on the right side, oily dandruff that looks large and yellowish; on the left side, dry dandruff that appears small and white.

    Recognise the difference

    • Oily dandruff is yellowish, large, and plaque-like, often sticking to the hair and scalp
    • Dry dandruff is smaller, white, and often falls onto the shoulders

    Oily dandruff...

    ... can be treated with a traditional anti-dandruff shampoo.
    Antimicrobial ingredients inhibit the growth of germs and fungi and regulate sebum production.

    Dry dandruff...

    ... indicate that the scalp is lacking moisture. Instead of traditional anti-dandruff shampoos, shampoos for dry and sensitive scalp are better suited in this case.

FAQ: Answers to your questions

Yes, the shampoo is suitable for daily and long-term use. Dandruff and weak hair roots are the two most common scalp issues among men – and both problems are not temporary but persist over time. Thanks to the double effect of anti-dandruff ingredients and Caffeine, the shampoo works simultaneously to get rid of dandruff while also strengthening the hair roots.

By massaging the scalp with Alpecin Double Effect Caffeine Shampoo, the active ingredients are absorbed more effectively into the skin and hair roots, creating a supply that remains active over time. In addition, the gentle pressure helps remove the top layer of dead skin cells more effectively.
