FAQs
How often should I shampoo my hair?
Most people benefit from washing their hair two to three times per week, but it depends on your hair type, lifestyle, and scalp needs. If you have oily roots or work out regularly, you may need an everyday shampoo that won’t strip your scalp, such as one of our delicate daily products.
How much shampoo should I use per wash?
The amount of hair shampoo you need depends on hair length and thickness. Short hair usually needs a dime-sized amount, medium-length hair a nickel, and long hair about a quarter. Start small—you can always lather more with lather shampoo if needed.
Should I shampoo twice?
Most hair types can benefit from a double shampoo, especially those that accumulate excess buildup. The first round removes surface dirt, oil, and products, while the second round provides a deeper clean and maximizes the effectiveness of any treatment products applied afterward. However, this is not recommended for those who wash their hair every day, as it can strip the hair and scalp of natural oils.
What type of shampoo should I use?
This will depend on your hair type and condition. However, regardless of whether you're aiming to address dryness, frizz, color treatment, or want softer and more voluminous hair, the one you choose should cleanse your hair without stripping away its natural oils. For dry hair, a hydrating shampoo adds moisture without heaviness.
Are there ingredients I should avoid in shampoos?
Commonly avoided ingredients include sulfates, parabens, synthetic fragrances, and silicones. These ingredients may strip the hair of natural oils, cause irritation, or lead to build-up on the hair over time. Opting for a more natural or gentle shampoo may be preferable.
How do I know if I’m overwashing?
Frizz, dryness, split ends, and greasiness shortly after washing can all indicate overwashing. Additionally, redness, irritation, or itching on your scalp may also be signs of washing too frequently. If you’re experiencing any of these concerns, you may need to reduce your washing frequency and monitor the condition of your hair.
Can I use regular shampoo on colored or treated hair?
It’s generally recommended to use a shampoo specifically formulated for colored or treated hair. These shampoos typically contain gentler cleansers and ingredients that help to preserve the color and maintain the health of the hair. You can even opt for a color-enhancing shampoo for shades of brown, red, and blonde.
Can shampoo help with hair growth or prevent hair loss?
Shampoo alone doesn't generally make hair grow or prevent it from falling out. Yet, certain shampoos may contain ingredients that support scalp health, potentially improving hair growth.
