What shampoo and conditioner should I use?

Different hair types and textures have different needs, so finding the right shampoo and conditioner combo is key for achieving the locks of your dreams. Ahead, learn how to choose the perfect shampoo and conditioner for your unique hair.

If your hair is on the oily side, look for a clarifying shampoo that'll deep clean the scalp and leave your hair feeling fresh. Combine it with a lightweight conditioner that won’t make your hair greasy, and you’re good to go.

Thin and fine hair types will benefit from a gentle shampoo, paired with a lightweight conditioner that's specifically designed for fine hair. This means it won't weigh your hair down but instead give the appearance of natural-looking volume, while helping to strengthen and nourish those delicate strands.

For thick, curly or frizz-prone hair, you’ll want a moisturising shampoo that won’t strip your hair of its natural oils — sulphate-free formulas are a good choice. Follow up with a nourishing conditioner that's packed with ingredients like shea butter or coconut oil to help smooth, soften and tame those unruly strands.

For dry or damaged hair, go for a deeply moisturising shampoo that'll hydrate and nourish your locks, restoring their natural shine. As for conditioner, choose a rich, hydrating formula that contains keratin, argan oil or shea butter to help repair, moisturise and strengthen your hair.

And if you've got colour-treated hair, make sure to use shampoo and conditioner formulas that are specifically designed for dyed hair to protect your colour and keep it looking fresh.
