    Selsun…. that's a blast from the past! Mum made me use it regularly…. I guess she didn't want me to look like father.
    Back then selsun used to have claims to be effective against baldness. I was bald as a badger at 25, but didn't try to get her money back.

      From the Googles, 'It turned out that the expression “as bald as a badger” comes from Victorian times when the original expression was: “as bald as a badger's backside”. Badger's hair was used to make men's shaving brushes. Brush makers would trap badgers and take the hair from their derrieres and then set them free.'

      Looks like you had a close shave.

        Damn, imagine the poor Badgers.

        "Hey Jim, what's happened to your arse ? It looks bald and sore !!"
        "Hi Bob. Those damn humans again, every time I get caught in a trap those bastards pull out a few handfuls of hair, then just send me on my way. WTF is wrong with them"
        "That sucks man, humans are the worst."

          that leads me to try to travel back to my school years. I can't recall…. did badgers come from brazil originally?

      • @Daabido
        hmmmms… interesting info! I wonder if someone used to pluck out a handful each night as I slept. Though it would have to aliens, not family, as the condition continued when I lived alone.

    • Not baldness but I believe it still worked well for certain things that could cause hair to fall out.

      Active ingredient of selsun gold: Selenium sulfide:
      used to treat dandruff and a certain scalp infection (seborrheic dermatitis).
      It reduces itching, flaking, irritation, and redness of the scalp.
      Selenium sulfide is also used for a condition that causes discoloration of the skin (tinea versicolor).
      This medication belongs to a class of medications called anti-infectives. It works by slowing the growth of the yeast that causes the infection.

      • Looks like you've still got it Fred! No dancing around that topic!

    • Yeah wow I haven't heard that name in a long long time. It used to be in a mustard coloured rectangular bottle yeah?

      • mustardy yellow liquid…. and mustardy bottle I think…. but might have changed over 50 years… ahem.

      • Yes. The shape changed to match Selsun Blue 5 bottles years and years ago.

  • great price but OOS in the inner western suburbs of melbourne
