10. You Want Breck Shampoo?

Fri Dec 28, 2018, 10:21 AM

Dec 2018

Buy the basic Dial. Dial bought Breck about 25 years ago. Because their basic brand was identical to the Breck you recall, they used the Breck name as more a boutique varietal.

This freed up the basic Dial product to be sold without them competing against themselves for the basic formula product.

Thought this might help ease your angst over losing your favorite shampoo.
