What Shampoo Should I Use?

If you've found yourself asking the question, what kind of shampoo should I use ? You're not alone. Using the right type of shampoo for your hair type and unique needs can be transformative, so knowing what to look for in a shampoo is worthwhile. The first thing to do is select a product that matches your hair type, whether it's straight, wavy, curly, or coiled. Next, consider whether you need a specialist product formulated for dry scalp, oily scalp, dry or damaged hair, fine hair, or thick hair. For example, sap moss™ weightless hydration shampoo is made from a blend containing Iceland moss and larch tree sap that hydrates without weighing down hair.

What Are The Different Types of Shampoos?

Every person has unique requirements, and using different types of shampoo depending on your needs is the best way to get results. For instance, thinning hair and hair loss are issues that affect millions of women. The invati advanced™ system contains a blend of Ayurvedic herbs including ginseng, turmeric, and organic amla to invigorate the scalp and thicken hair. If you regularly style your hair with heat, the botanical repair™ range contains ingredients that repair and revitalize the tresses. Finally, hair that's prone to frizz and split ends can benefit from the plant oil-enriched nutriplenish™ deep hydration range.

What Are Some of the Benefits of Shampoo?

The benefits of shampooing hair are practically endless, but there are three main reasons this should be the first step in every hair care routine: • Using a shampoo containing ingredients that complement your hair type is the best way to ensure it's smooth and soft. • The best shampoos contain an array of ingredients that nourish your hair. • Applying shampoo that's designed with your specific hair goals in mind can be beneficial. For example, if you have damaged hair, you could try out Aveda's botanical repair™ strengthening shampoo .

Should You Shampoo Every Day?

When it comes to a hair care regimen, there's no one-size-fits-all. Every person's scalp and hair is slightly different, and everyone has personal preferences. Shampooing every day isn't usually recommended because it removes protective oils, potentially damaging hair and leaving it brittle. Try to wash hair every other day at most, leaving two or three days between washes if you don't experience itchiness or discomfort. If there's a little oil in-between washes, try adding Aveda's shampowder™ dry shampoo to absorb grease while leaving hair feeling soft and looking healthy. If you prefer to use shampoo once or twice per week, add foam reset™ riseless hydrating hair cleanser for a hair cleanse that also cools and refreshes the scalp.
