I have reviewed many shampoos in the past. That's why I figured, for the purpose of this review entry, to answer the 9 biggest shampoo questions that are asked.
HOW OFTEN SHOULD I SHAMPOO
There's no harm in washing your hair everyday, unless you start to see a lot of breakage. The whole process of wetting, drying your hair takes a lot of moisture out of it. So, here's a rule of thumb:
Wash your hair every day if you have oily hair, live in a polluted city, humid environment or work out every day.
Wash every other day if your hair is normal or combination.
Wash your hair every few days if your hair is on the dry side, you live in a rural environment or dry climate.
IS IT POSSIBLE TO USE TOO MUCH SHAMPOO
As long as you rinse it all out, you really can't use too much. A dollop the size of a quarter is usually enough, but hair length is also a factor. Lather can be drying, but since it only sits on your hair a few minutes, it's safe for all hair types.
WHAT IS THE IDEAL WATER TEMPERATURE
Warm water will work up a nice lather and help dissolve the soap so that your hair rinses clean. Avoid really hot water, which can make your hair limp. For the final rinse, cold water is best, it will help lock helpful ingredients into each strand and leave your hair shinier.
DOES SHAMPOO EXPIRE
Most shampoos have a shelf life of 2-3 years. A product that's older won't harm your hair, but it won't be as effective. A telltale sign is separation and/or a change in color or smell.
IF I PROTECT COLOR CAN I GET SHINE & VOLUME
Most shampoos that preserve color now include 'bonus' ingredients to promote volume and shine. If that's not enough for you, start a shampoo 'wardrobe'. Make the color protector your basic, but use the others on alternate days to get different benefits.
HOW OFTEN SHOULD I USE CLARIFYING SHAMPOO
If you use a lot of styling products, live in an area with mineral-rich water or swim a lot, you should use a clarifying shampoo twice a month. Oily types: Use a daily clarifying shampoo every time you wash. For the rest: Use a clarifying formula if your hair looks dull or has become resistant to your regular products.
ARE SALON SHAMPOOS BETTER THAN DRUGSTORE
Shampoo is not a 'you get what you pay for' product. There are a few factors you should know: Drugstore brands put a lot of money in their research and new technology. They keep their prices low because they manufacture mass quantities. Expensive shampoos have advantages of their own: They're gentler and contain a higher concentration of high-quality ingredients. So don't focus on the price tag, but on finding a formula that works for you.
WHEN IS IT BEST TO SWITCH SHAMPOO
Sometimes the same bottle can make your hair lackluster without warning. Unless the label alerts you to a 'new' or 'improved' formula it's the surface of your hair that's changed. First clarify your hair, then bring back your shampoo. No improvement? It may be time to switch for good. A simple test: Look at your nails. If they are ridged, peeling or break easily, you're just aging. This leads to water loss in your cells and tissues. Your hair may be dryer so buy a moisturizing version or ask your stylist to diagnose your new needs.
DO I NEED CONDITIONER
Conditioner is essential. It finishes what shampoo starts in terms or making your hair manageable and repairing split ends. You may go through many conditioners before you find the right one, but you'll know when you've met your match. When your hair is properly conditioned, it holds style better.
Now that I was able to answer some of the most frequently asked questions for you, I highly recommend this shampoo. It's great for all hair types, including color treated hair. I also enjoy their dedication to finding and researching the best ingredients to use in their products. For that reason, if you're ever unsatisfied, they'll make it right for you.
