Spanish firm invents shampoo for bald people

A COMPANY based in León has launched the world's first-ever shampoo for bald people.
Chief executive officer of Carobels, Juan José Cabero – who describes himself as 'bald and proud' – says the shampoo is neither designed to prevent hair loss, nor to help regrowth, but merely to care for the scalp when it does not have hair to protect it.
He said people were surprised to see the new product when it hit the shelves, since 'nobody every thinks about things like that'.
“The scalp needs special care, and this need is heightened when it's exposed,” Cabero says.
Ordinary soap or shower gel does not provide this level of care, he explains, and he invented the shampoo called Doctor Bald, a line from his brand Beardbury's, when he realised there was nothing on the market anywhere to meet the 'cosmetic and dermatological needs' specific to people with no hair.
It is gradually being sold in barbershops in the provinces of León, Valencia and Madrid and across the region of Galicia, and may well hit the shelves in mainstream stores shortly.
