Your Shampoo Choice Can Change Your Hair

We receive many questions from our clients every day about how to choose the right shampoo.

Shampoo is not just something to cleanse your hair.In fact, the shampoo you choose can make a significant difference in the future condition of your hair.

Today, we would like to share some tips on how to choose the right shampoo based on your specific hair concerns.

1. Identify Your Hair Concerns First

The first step in choosing a shampoo is understanding the condition of your hair and scalp.

• Concerned about dryness → You need more moisture• Lack of volume → You want more lift and body at the roots• Dandruff or itchiness → You need scalp care• Damage from coloring or perming → You need protection and repair

Once you clearly understand your concern, it becomes much easier to choose the right product.

2. Choose a Shampoo That Matches Your Needs

Shampoos should be selected based on the condition of both your hair and scalp. Here are some general guidelines:

• For Dry Hair: Focus on Moisture

If your hair feels dry, choose a moisturizing shampoo containing ingredients such as hyaluronic acid or amino acids.Using a scalp-cleansing shampoo with strong cleansing power on already dry hair may worsen the dryness.

• For Lack of Volume: Choose a Lightweight Formula

If your hair is fine and tends to fall flat, choose a lightweight volumizing shampoo.Heavy, moisturizing formulas may weigh your hair down even more.

For clients seeking more volume, the Adenovital series is also a popular option, designed to support fuller-looking hair from the roots.

• For Scalp Concerns: Gentle Scalp Care

If you experience dandruff or itchiness, choose a low-irritation shampoo that removes excess oil while maintaining proper moisture balance.Selecting a product only for its “refreshing” feeling can sometimes make the condition worse.

• For Damaged Hair: Focus on Repair Ingredients

If your hair is damaged from coloring or perming, choose shampoos containing repair ingredients such as keratin or collagen.Moisture alone may not be enough to restore weakened hair.

3. The Wrong Shampoo Can Have the Opposite Effect

Using a shampoo that does not match your needs can lead to unwanted results.

For example:

• Want moisture but use a strong cleansing shampoo → Dryness may increase• Want volume but use a heavy moisturizing shampoo → Hair may become even flatter

Shampoo is not about “good” or “bad.”It’s about whether it is right for you.

4. When in Doubt, Consult a Professional

There are so many shampoo options available that it can be overwhelming.

By considering your hair type, treatment history, and lifestyle, a professional can help you find the most suitable product.

If you are unsure which shampoo to choose, please feel free to ask us.

The right daily care can help you maintain beautiful hair for years to come.
