This is one of the best shampoos I've used. It cleans your hair well yet doesn't dry it out. My hair is normal to slightly oily. I use it daily with no issues whatsoever. My hair combs smoothly and looks terrific. Shampoo companies are great marketers and it's difficult to choose a good one. At one point I purchased over 10 shampoos from Wal-Mart and gave them all a try to see how they actually performed. I found that shampoo makes a big difference in how your hair looks and feels after it dries. Surprisingly the best of these was Alberto VO5 Kiwi-Lime or Mango which are good choices if you are on a budget. Wal-Mart doesn't carry American Crew. This shampoo is much better than the Alberto VO5 and worth the extra money. Highly recommended! You will love it. Women like it too. I've shopped around and Amazon.com has an excellent price especially if you are an Amazon.com Prime member with free shipping.

First off, I actually ordered this stuff by accident. I thought that it was for oily hair, but I am glad I didn't send it back.

I've been battling dandruff since middle school, which would be about 15 years now. I've used head and shoulders, 3 varieties of selsun blue, nizoral and 2 kinds of tea tree oil shampoo. The selsun was prescribed by a doctor for treating dandruff and the tea tree oil was suggested by a beautician. Each would work for a while and then whatever effect they gave me would wear off. I actaully was starting to think that the dandruff, which I believe is bacteria (I could be wrong) was becoming resistant. I even once shaved my head thinking that that might be the answer.

About 2 months after I ordered this American Crew shampoo, in the dry hair/scalp variety, I did some more research on dandruff, this time in regards to why the tea tree oil shampoo stopped working for me. I found a couple of websites that said that people misdiagnose dandruff for severely damaged scalp. What the human scalp wants to do is produce oil to protect itself, the oil being transferred to the hair. But since people in general do not want oily hair, we use shampoos to strip the oil. Stripping the oil causes the scalp to produce oil in greater quantities. This causes the scalp to dry out. Dry scalp gives a person the impression that they need dandruff shampoo, which dries out the scalp even worse. What a person should actually get is shampoo for dry scalp.

After I found that bit of information out, low and behold, I had a bottle of this shampoo (dry scalp formula) in my bathroom. I've used it a couple of times and the flakes have almost entirely stopped, the itchy scalp is not anywhere close to as itchy and as long as I use it daily, the oil is manageable.

As others have written here, I have tried a variety of regular store-bought shampoos. And while there might be a confirmation bias in these purchases ("I spent more money therefore it must work!"), I can safely say that this product is the best men's shampoo I have tried. After a few weeks of use, my hair is much healthier and shinier looking. It feels light and clean after each use. My most recent shampoo was Pantene Pro-V, which was one of the better regular shampoos I have tried, however, the American Crew leaves that far behind. It has a great, masculine scent without being overpowering. One caveat, I do have nut allergies and this product does contain coconut oil (I am slightly allergic to coconut; can't eat Mounds bars or the like). However, I have not experienced any problems at all. I think if I avoid ingesting it, I should be fine. Overall, it's a fantastic daily shampoo on par with those you that are used in salons. The price per oz. makes it a very solid value as well. Would that the shampoo was packaged in a two pack as with the conditioner, however.

Live in a warm area (Florida) use 1 to 3 times a day and does not dry out my hair. Can't beat the price as compaired to other local stores in town.

Mmmm. Silky smooth hair.

This was my first foray into "good shampoo", as I've lived a lifetime of Herbal Essences and Suave products (not to say they are terrible). I read a lot about people saying how they love the smell of this shampoo, and I was surprised when it arrived at how subtle the scent is. I don't have the best nose in the world but I could barely notice it. It was good, just extremely subtle (which may be the appeal).

People also say that this soap does not lather (get all foamy) very well. I have noticed that upon first application it does not create a whole lot of foam... but if you wash, rinse and put a bit more on for a second quick scrub, you get great, thick suds. I have no idea what the science is behind that but I always wash my hair twice when using this product and it's done well for me.

Great product ,great price. Each bottle( I bought a 2 pack) packed separately. One was spilled and needed to be returned.My postmaster refused to take the leaking box back. I phoned the Amazon people with my story and they simply replaced the second bottle with no questions asked. Thanks Amazon!

If there is anything that initiates my memory of going to the barbershop back home it's this shampoo. The smell of it is remarkable. It's manly and the shampoo leaves my hair softer then before. And I have very dry hair, the kind that pokes your hand when you move your hand back against the grain. I am not saying that I am a cosmetologist or an expert in the field of shampoos, but from personal experience, it works great for me and my type of hair. I always recommend this to my friends and girls always complement the way this shampoo leaves my hair smelling.

I was amazed when I found American Crew on your sight for the price. I have been using this product for many years and it's great stuff. I can no longer find the large size around my area and the smaller sizes are twice the price of what I paid for this. The shampoo is great I would recommend to all. Thanks for having American Crew products. Much appreciated.

Very satisfied.
Third reorder.
I have also purchased the conditioner as well.
Crew makes grest products for men.
I recommend this priduct to friends.

The shampoo is great, it leave my hair nice, clean and not too dry, but perfume sensitive buyers be aware that this shampoo contains a strong men-style perfume.

Other than that, it's a great product.
