Shampoo

Shampoo for every hair type and scalp

Shampoo is the first step of hair care: it cleanses the hair and scalp and sets the foundation for everything that follows. Here you will find professional and pharmacy-brand shampoos for coloured, fine, dry, curly and oily hair, as well as for scalp care.

How to choose the right shampoo

Choose a shampoo by your hair type and what your scalp needs, not only by scent or packaging. These questions help.

• Coloured or lightened hair: colour-care and sulphate-free shampoos help colour stay vibrant for longer; for blondes there are silver shampoos that neutralise yellow tones.
• Fine hair that needs volume: volumising shampoos leave hair lighter and fuller-looking.
• Dry and damaged hair: hydrating and repairing shampoos soften and add shine.
• Oily or sensitive scalp: scalp shampoos, including anti-dandruff and gentle formulas, help keep the scalp balanced.

For the best result, pair your shampoo with a suitable conditioner and once a week use a hair mask for intensive care.

Popular brands

The shampoos include products from Wella Professionals, Joico and Schwarzkopf Professional, as well as Goldwell, Macadamia, R+Co, Vichy and L’Occitane.

How often should I wash my hair with shampoo?

It depends on your hair type and how oily your scalp is. Oily hair suits more frequent washing, while for dry and curly hair a couple of times a week is often enough.

Do I need a conditioner as well as a shampoo?

A conditioner smooths the surface of the hair, makes it easier to comb and adds shine. In most cases shampoo and conditioner work best together.

How much shampoo should I use?

A walnut-sized amount lathered on the scalp is usually enough. For long hair you can use a little more.
