I think it's not so much the shampoo but a mix of most men using shorter haircuts and doing less damaging things to their hair, like hair colouring.

And it's not like there aren't specialized shampoos targeting primarily men. I think I never saw a dandruff shampoo marketed towards women.

Huh. Is dandruff not a thing that happens to women? I wouldn't know.

From what I could find, men are more likely to suffer from dandruff than women, so even though women can suffer from dandruff it makes sense from a marketing perspective to focus mostly on men, especially since men are still thought that anything even cosmetics adjacent is not manly.

Its my understanding it does, but is generally far less noticeable (gets caught and held in hair, then washed out when bathing) but is usually cared for / treated by using proper hair products.
