A practical guide to selecting shampoo based on your scalp condition, hair goals, and lifestyle.
The right shampoo is not the one with the best marketing — it is the one that solves your specific scalp and hair concerns. Here is how to choose.
Start With Your Scalp
Oily scalp: Use a gentle clarifying or balancing shampoo 3–4 times a week. Avoid heavy moisturising formulas that will weigh roots down further.
Dry or flaky scalp: Choose a sulfate-free formula with hydrating actives like panthenol or aloe. Wash 1–2 times per week maximum.
Normal scalp: Almost any quality formula will work — focus on your hair goals instead.
Then Consider Your Hair Goals
For colour-treated hair, always use a colour-safe, sulfate-free formula to preserve vibrancy and prevent fading.
For damaged or heat-styled hair, look for strengthening actives like keratin, biotin, or protein complexes.
Our Silk Repair Shampoo is designed to work across all hair types — it cleanses gently while infusing biotin and bamboo extract for strength and shine.
