Higher cost, lower quality
I always considered this shampoo to be on the expensive side, but it was formulated to be highly concentrated and not much product was needed to clean my hair. That made it a reasonable value, IMO. However, as others have noted, the formula changed recently to make the product much less concentrated, meaning that considerably more product must be used to get the job done. Not only that, but the price has gone up. It is no longer a reasonable value. Far from it.

Same High Price for Worse Formulation
I've been using this for many years. It's pricy, but it didn't take a lot to get my hair clean, but it's main selling point for me is that it doesn't cause my scalp to itch. It's non-scented which is a big plus due to my asthma and sensitivity to certain smells.However, the recent change has meant that I need to use a much larger amount than I previously needed and it doesn't get my hair squeaky clean anymore. It feels like it has conditioner in it.Unfortunately, while it still is great for my skin, the price has now become ridiculous compared to the value. This certainly feels like shrinkflation and an attempt to increase the frequency of purchases. Not in my case, however. I'll be looking for a new shampoo. What a shame.

Recent change in product consistency and results : Update a day later
Update: They sent "Although the product formulation remains the same, these minor changes are due to slight differences in the raw material from one batch to another. These differences in physical characteristics do not alter the effectiveness of the products and are safe for use." Except, the product does not work like it used to...even a couple months ago. I guess I'll be switching shampoos after 9 years using all sorts of their products. Crud....Now, I have to find a new facial cream, toner, hair treatment. I hate changing brands after this much time.I've been using this product for 9 years now, and this is the first time I haven't been happy with the shampoo. I see that 2 others have had the same consistency issues and lack of suds producing effect. The lot on my bottle is H22T07. I've contacted MenScience via their website and will have to wait on a reply, but this has been really disappointing to see after using this product this long.I'm a QA/QC Chemist, and I know how sometimes, production lots are just poor....incorrect mix times, temps, raw materials, etc.....and sometimes those poor batches get out to customers. I will revise my review once/if I hear back from their customer service.

Formula changed.
The shampoo formulation changed without any notification or reason. Takes 2 or 3 times as much shampoo to lather up.

Good product
I find the shampoo to be a big improvement over the many store varieties that I have used over the years. My hair feels light and clean. I will continue using this!

Shampoo works well for treating scalp acne
I purchased this shampoo because it came up on a search for scalp acne treatment, which I suffer from periodically. It started working to clear my scalp almost right away and eventually, it was no longer breaking out. I can't find another shampoo that cleans my scalp as well yet does not dry out the hair, (and I have tried many). I even use it to wash my face when I shower! I am using this even though it is branded as a product for men, and I am a "girly girl" kind of woman. It does not have a masculine smell, like something my husband would use. It has a neutral smell. This product is worth the price.Update, 11/23/19: I have purchased this product a total of 12 times, according to Amazon! Obviously I am still very pleased. It really does a great job cleansing the scalp without overdrying your hair!

Change in Formula - Different Scent and Texture
I've been using Men's Science "Daily Shampoo" for over 5 years, I first tired it when I worked for Barneys New York. I am pretty well-versed in cosmetics and I have tried a lot of different products, from affordable to top of the line. This March, I purchased and received a bottle that had a much different scent, texture and viscosity. It was very slick and clumpy, often falling off my hand when I transferred it from the bottle. It didn't lather well and always requires 2 applications in order for my hair (which is very short) to feel clean. There is really no similarity to the Men's Science "Daily Shampoo" that I have used for the last 5 years.I reviewed my recent Orders just to make sure it wasn't sold by an unverified seller and found that the seller is Men's Science Androceuticals. If the formula has changed, please change it back or this is the last "Daily Shampoo" that I will ever purchase or use.

Helps treat scalp acne/folliculitis
The only shampoo out there that reliably treats my acne-prone scalp. Doesn't dry out my hair or scalp, but leaves it feeling clean and refreshed. No dandruff issues either. I used to wake up with greasy hair, but with this shampoo it's not as bad.It doesn't have a strong scent, just a very mild mint-like smell to it. You don't need to use much, even with medium length hair. A bottle usually lasts me 3 months.I've tried maybe six other shampoos, and nothing comes close. It's expensive, but completely worth it. If you suffer from scalp acne/folliculitis, or have greasy hair or scalp, this is the best product out there.
