I'm analytically minded, and tend to favour a high standard of evidence. You can experiment for yourself pretty easily though, at least with deodorant. You do have two armpits that tend to sweat the same amount. Try two deodorants side by side and see what happens.

My own personal observations have led me to favour Mitchum; I've found it stops odor, keeps me reasonably dry and doesn't leave much in the way of residue. The deodorant stone was no better than the control, even after a week of 'normalization'.

I don't know how to do a comparable test for shampoo, but trust me, I'm working on it.
