Recently moved to an area with hard water. Wife and I were noticing more hair loss while showering. Turns out an ingredient “EDTA” can help remove buildup from hard water that damages hair. This is a common ingredient in expensive shampoos but it’s also in Head and Shoulders. Wife started using expensive shampoos to help and I switched to Head and Shoulders. She just ended up using my shampoo(much cheaper) and it’s been working well for us. Hope this helps others.
We’ve got hard water and I’m trying to get my partner to try a chelating (mineral-removing) shampoo on his long, curly hair. His poor scalp is so itchy and I think it’s the hard water.

That’s because well know brands like head and shoulders are incentivized to make their product actually decent if not good.
In general, people aren’t dumb. They can tell if something is crap or something is good.
The real fact of the matter is making good shampoo or shower gel doesn’t cost a lot.
Personally for me Old spice with a hint of sandalwood, top notch.
