How to Choose a Shampoo

Washing with the best ingredients to support your hair and scalp goals makes an incredible difference in your mane condition.

Hair needs vary as greatly as skin needs do, and so do lifestyle preferences. Hence the array of both solid and liquid shampoo options in our hair care range - shampooing has never been more fun!

Review the following statements and choose a shampoo based on what washes up.

  • B) Needy, it’s really an effort to get it looking good.
  • C) Dull and dry to the touch.
  • D) Oily and limp, lacking lustre.
  • E) My hair’s fine—but my scalp is troublesome.

My current routine is:

  • A) Washing when needed, and using a few other products here and there

  • C) Washing and/or conditioning 3 or 4 times a week
  • D) Washing hair every day.

  • B) Like starting from scratch on my overall look.
  • C) Thirsty for conditioner.
  • D) Less greasy than usual.
  • E) Healthy and clean.

More shampoo = cleaner hair

Don’t get yourself into an unnecessary lather and waste shampoo. Just a squirt (about the size of a quarter) is usually enough for long hair. Very long hair may take a little more.

The secret to clean, healthy hair is not the amount of lather your shampoo creates; it’s the ingredients in your shampoo. Read the labels, learn about the ingredients and know why they’re there.

 

You must shampoo every day

We sell shampoo so we could certainly benefit from keeping this one under wraps, but we believe in honesty. Shampooing too frequently can harm hair and lead to excess oil production.
