Why did Head & Shoulders Bare win the Best in Class PAC Global Inclusive Design Award? Touch is a very important sense we all rely on and use without thinking. When you can’t see, often we default to using touch. I can tell from touch if a pear is ripe and I can even feel the detail in the texture of my sofa. And now, I can feel the 4 tactile stripes on the bottle, which communicate to me that this is a shampoo bottle.  The new Head & Shoulders Bare is working a treat! The way it lathers and the refreshing scent it offers have transformed the simple act of washing my hair into a truly enjoyable experience. Watch this video to learn why?   To the incredible team at Head & Shoulders, I couldn't be prouder of your exceptional work in designing a product that is accessible, sustainable and offers a truly superior experience. And to PAC Global, I extend my heartfelt gratitude for hosting such a remarkable event.
