 Posted: 07/04/06 - 23:00 Post subject: Back acne - Head and Shoulders |
  |
|
Have you tried to use head and shoulders on your skin? I have heard that it can be from help in curing acne on neck and back. As I have problem with bad looking acne not only on my face, I’m ready to try this. I just wondered if there is anyone with this kind of experience. I believe that it can not make them worse, can it?

I tried it once and it worked! As I can not say that it has to work in everybody, but I was pleased with the effects. Head and shoulders contains zinc and some other astringent substances and also has antibacterial effects. I had no side effects. I mean you can make shampoo not to get in contact with your skin when you wash your hair, can you? It healed acne on my back. But, I would not use it on my face.

I tried regular Head and Shoulders (with pyrithione zinc) and not only did it make my acne worse, soon after using it I noticed a red splotch of what looks like eczema near the hairline. I've never had something like that before, and my skin is usually clear.
I only used it because my hair was dried out (though I did not have dandruff).
Obviously, I would recommend NOT USING IT. |

| Why would you use Head and Shoulders on your skin if you don't usually have acne? |

| Head and Shoulders definitely helps out with back acne. Make sure you get the classic clean one with pyrithione zinc as the main ingredient. Give it time to work and only use it once a day (preferably at night). It took about 2-3 months until i started noticing results. The zinc is good for your skin and it has helped out with my dandruff as well! |
