The Best Hair Shampoo
How to choose it? |
|
The shampoo is a hair care product covered by the motto: "You can't not to buy." As it is quite indispensable, the correct choice is very important and largely determines its effectiveness. If the hair shampoo fulfills its function - to help us maintain clean hair without damaging, the rest of the hair care products we use will work better. |

Here comes the question: “Which is the best hair shampoo?”
It doesn't exist a simple answer to this question, though.
The better question is: “How to choose the best shampoo for my hair type?”
What type of hair cleansing product to choose and how to use it?
What to consider while selecting the best shampoo?
The most important thing to remember is that your best hair shampoo should comply first with your hair type /dry, damaged, oily, colored, curly, thin, etc./ and second with the effects you want to achieve - gloss, smoothness, color protection, volume etc.

Always read the ingredients. Note the main surfactant and avoid products containing sodium laureth sulfate, sodium and ammonium lauryl sulfate. Those ingredients are irritating and can cause hair damage and scalp itch. Prefer mild shampoos made with gentle surfactants. Those that make a lot of foam have a higher level of acidity that dries out and damages the strands. Look for sulfate free shampoos that are also free of parabens, synthetic dyes, fragrances petrochemicals, phthalates, DEA, MEA, TEA. If you are not sure about the ingredients, you can always check the product’s safety at Skin Deep. |
The color, the density and the smell of the product are not the criteria you should comply with. Unfortunately, a lot of people do the opposite and buy some hair shampoo because it smells nice or is attractively colored. These specifications are achievable by the addition of certain chemical substances and are intended only to improve the commercial appearance of the product.
Whether the shampoo is suitable or not for your mane you will be able to find out after a couple of weeks of use. Unless the product is of extremely poor quality, the first couple of washes always give good looking results.
How to wash your hair? Before washing, gently comb the hair. This will remove some residues of the styling products and dirt.

| Before applying shampoo, leave the water running onto your hair and scalp for about 50-60 seconds. Do not pour the product on the head directly from the bottle. Spill the required amount of hair shampoo in your palm and gently spread it on the scalp with fingertips, continue with light massaging movements to stimulate the blood circulation of the scalp without damaging the locks. Rinse thoroughly, otherwise the strands will lose their shine and volume, and the scalp may get irritated. At the end, pour the head with lukewarm water to invigorate the scalp and to add luster to the locks. |
