Hair loss and dandruff, these are the two most frequent scalp problems to affect men. Alpecin Double-Effect Caffeine Shampoo especially for men is formulated to simultaneously counteract both problems.
First effect - Tough on dandruff: In the first step, this shampoo loosens scaly, keratinous cells and thoroughly removes dandruff from the scalp. From a dermatological standpoint, the combination of the two effective anti-dandruff substances, salicylic acid and piroctone olamine, is an ideal complex because it takes into account all dermatologically relevant aspects of cosmetic dandruff:
- Gentle dandruff removal
- Anti-inflammatory effect
- Antioxidant effect, i.e. improved resistance
- Antimicrobial properties
Up to now, this combination was exclusively used in pharmacy products as a dermatologically based anti-dandruff solution. It results in precise and gentle micro-peeling (micro-exfoliation) and relieves itching scalps.
Second effect - Prevents hereditary hair loss: The removal of dandruff from the scalp prepares the way for the caffeine complex. Alpecin Double-Effect Caffeine Shampoo contains highly dosed caffeine that penetrates into the hair roots when the hair is washed. It can be detected just 120 seconds after application. In the hair root, the active ingredient forms a 24-hour depot, thereby protecting the hair root from premature inactivity and, as such, hereditary hair loss is prevented.
Information for competitive athletes: Alpecin Caffeine can be detected in the hair follicles.

FAQs:
What are the ingredients of the Caffeine Complex?
The Caffeine Complex is an ingredient formula made up from caffeine, zinc and niacin.
Does drinking coffee promote natural hair growth?
Since you ingest coffee orally, it will first pass through the gastrointestinal organs to be absorbed by the organism at a later time. Subsequently, it is distributed throughout the body and only a tiny quantity reaches the scalp and the hair directly. As a result, a local and direct supply of caffeine to the hair is expedient and necessary. Even the consumption of 50 cups of coffee would not provide the hair with enough caffeine.
Are the Alpecin products also appropriate for women?
Alpecin products were specifically developed for the requirements of male scalps, which is also reflected by the fragrance and the masculine packaging. However, the caffeine-based ingredient is also appropriate in women.
