Head & Shoulders names Odell Beckham Jr. as hair ambassador

CINCINNATI — Head & Shoulders, the official shampoo of the NFL, announced on Friday that New York Giants wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. is the company’s newest hair ambassador.

“I’m honored to be chosen as the new Head & Shoulders hair ambassador,” Beckham Jr. said. “It’s an iconic brand that I trust to take care of my hair and scalp. Troy Polamalu and his legendary hair have left a big helmet to fill, but I’m ready to take on this role and join the Head & Shoulders family.”

Head & Shoulders chose Beckham Jr. for his football talent, “iconic hair” and sense of style, the brand said. Last season, Beckham Jr. won Offensive Rookie of the Year and an ESPN ESPY Award.
