According to Arab Times:
Head & Shoulders in danger’
The Ministry of Health (MoH) might get the ‘Head and Shoulders’ shampoo removed from the market, in case it is proven that the shampoo contains carcinogenic substances, reports Al-Hurriya daily. A Qatari newspaper, Al Sahrq, recently published a report stating that research revealed the presence of ‘Deuxan’, which causes cancer, cirrhosis and kidney fibrosis, in the shampoo. The newspaper had warned the general public against using the shampoo and indicated that it will be withdrawn from the markets.
I’ve actually been using Head & Shoulders for years but just yesterday for some odd reason I decided to try Clear (pictured above). It’s actually pretty good, smells great and instead of burning your eyes like Head & Shoulders, Clear actually has this strange cooling effect.
Thanks xboclibe

clear is not bad , solved my d problem , h&s never worked….
i don’t use any “Arabized” shampoo
Sh*t! I just bought a new big one last night, what a waste… maybe I’ll try the one with 2 horses printed on the bottle (sorry, I forgot the name)… 🙂
I never knew bald people use shampoo. LMAO.
i Use AXE Shampoo they are the best You should check em out in Sultan Center
So what about parabens?
Check your gels and lotions for those (e.g. methylparabens).
I don’t hear the MoH banning them.
I use Johnson’s baby shampoo, best out there imo
head and shoulders thins ur hair..in other words it makes u bald
clear actually burns my eyes and makes my hair greasy :/
FFFF Been using Head and shoulders all my life.
I must have like 5KG of cancer in me.
Clear is actually rly gud……smells gr8 too…..definitely 4 men!!!
i have been using head shoulders since i tsarted using it i m 14 now i still use it i just threw the bottle 😛 gonna go get clear now!
and your welcome mark ^^
Smoking shisha is a greater cause for concern.
2 of ma friends started using clear, and he has become bald and it took him like 6 years to grow his air back and still there r bald patches, not cool
OMG Cristiano Ronaldo uses it…. Oh noooooooooooooooooooooooo… Ronnnieeeeee
i got an email saying Clear is the one with carcinogenic stuff, all rumors, nothing true.
AXE!!
i am using it for 13 year . mint or lemon .
You know what else contains carcinogens? Cigarettes. How about we ban those instead?
Use Pantene and you’ll be safe.
BTW Head & Shoulders should now be called Head, Shoulders & Kidneys.
This might be another business conspiracy to destroy a product. Its only a search engine away to balance issues and lead you to a decision….
how about just shaving your head and rubbing i with soap instead??!! thats what i do
I only use H&S when my hair color has come out too dark. It is really good for stripping your hair of color.
Wait a minute… bigger picture… why is the MOH concerned with little issues like banning Head & Shoulders when
– they are still building government homes next to/under high voltage wires?
– the air we breathe is so polluted?
– pollutants and raw sewage contaminates the bay
– there aren’t enough food/restaurant inspectors in the country
– there are no laws against smoking in the workplace (carcinogens)
– etc etc etc
Shampoo? Puhleeeeeze.
My friend’s gna be so disappointed!
He’s in LOVE with clear!
Lol, might as well ban laundry softeners and scents they contain carcinogens as well. Hell, ban peanuts they have one of the most potent carcinogens known in their powder
It is extremely funny that the MoH bans something for potential health issues. More like its cutting into the market share of a competing shampoo product and its owner is not too happy, now thats sounds more plausible
I read that clear war banned from the UAE market for the same reason it had carcinogenic chemicals, if u have dandruff I suggest u try 25 tea try oil drops in 2 spoons olive oil twice a week before taking a bath it really works I tried it on my husband.
Its so true, one year back i stopped using Head & Shoulders cos i found i have been loosing hair a lot. Now i use Nivea Hair raising shampoo.
Insted of using head and shoulder to get rid of dandruf use vineger with water and rinse hair after 5 minute and rinse hair @ use that three times in aweek and see the result
clear is really good gives your head a coolong effect.
Note to those with burnt eyes: Put shampoo on top of head, not on front of face.
it true this is good shampoo
I used my husbands head and shoulder’s it was empty so I added water. I pured the diluted shampoo on my hair I barely open my eye and it burned my eyes so badly. I have a BLOOD SPOT on my eyes. It is big I took photos my husband couldn’t believe it could do what it did to my eyes.
I hope they ban it!!!!
Been using Head and Shoulders for more than 10 years….no hair loss, no burning eyes and best of all no bloody dandruff or dry scalp. I use both the shampoo and the conditioner twice daily.
