Q: Head & Shoulders quality?

Does anyone else feel the quality of Head & Shoulders shampoo here is disgraceful when being compared to their home country?  I brought a bottle from home, it was great, lathered into the scalp, had a nice texture, was pleasant to look at, however the same version in China was chalky, thick and didn't lather into the scalp at all.  I complained to P&G they told me, that maybe different countries use slightly different ingredients.  Anyone else share my opinion?

I was advised to use 'L'Oreal' hair products if I had to buy here in China, and buy only from Watson's or an international supermarket.

As i have 0% trust in China cosmetic products, this move was the lesser of two evils.

There is so much s*** in the air here, I have to wash my hair more regularly than at home.

 

You could have bought a fake product - this is China after all

It is "addicting".... the more you use it the more you have to use it, to relieve the scalp itch, it causes.....Head & Shoulders is not a good product, in my humble opinion.

i also have an issue with Gillette shaving gel, (foam has been OK)  I know I got some fake stuff, one time...reported to Gillette and never heard anything from them. Got 10 half-assed shaves out of that tube.

If you buy it in any Chinese supermarket, even the biggest chains, there's a very high chance that your H&D product is a fake.

I always use that shampoo that Jackie Chan advertises for. It exists in an anti dandruff version if that is what floats your boat.

Short selling? Watch for H&S setup. It's time to run for an exit, and keep some of your money

My Dove, shampoo & conditioner, turned simply toxic to my skin, after an excessive use of it, more than a year. I ended with a sort of burning my scalp and had to leave it. I had to buy one from Europe that now it's great. I heard, although I am not sure about its science, that the shampoo in Asia it's adapted to a different ph skin very much incompatible to the skin ph of Europeans and other non Asian Countries. Again, I am not sure about such thing. It's true, that in China, anything could be very well faked and what you've used may have been fakes as well.

There are some natural solutions I use when any cosmetics fails: sometimes olive oil, sometimes vinaigrette, depending on whether it goes too dried or too fat.

Add to it the water that is so contaminated in China and you have a multiple sources of endangering your hair and scalp.

A:I had a similar experience in HK. If I recall correctly, before or at the Z visa application, I had to submit ME from the ordinary HK clinic, where I explained why I need ME and I asked them to examine only necessary things (I don't remember the cost ...), and then ... I got Z stamp and when back in China, I had to complete another RP ME, which was on the employer, i.e. included in the Contract ...We've never discussed refund of payment for HK ME with my employer. Year 2013 ...I'd say, that is a regular thingy embassies around the world require, before issuing visas for LT stay in the country. "Vladimir Vladimiro-Witch ras-Putin" (LOL@your pronunciation ..) demands the same thingy before granting LT stay in Ruski.  ... Haa, 2013 was the Snowden's year. I was in Kowloon at the time of his landing .. with all these files ... I'm-Still-in-LMAO-State ... Cost for the ME in HK was around HK$ 2000/200 EUR, and ME was kind of swift, quicker and way shorter than on the mainland ... -- icnif77
