Buying shampoo can be confusing and overwhelming. Hydrating, strengthening, smoothing, color-safe, volumizing—how do you what one to choose? Let's break it down by your hair type.
1.
Fine Hair
We recommend a daily or bodifying shampoo. One of our favorites is SACHAJUAN Normal Hair Shampoo. It is a gentle, every day shampoo that will leave your hair volumized, shiny, and conditioned.

Coarse + Curly Hair
We recommend a mosturizing and smoothing shampoo. We love the KEVIN.MURPHY SMOOTH.AGAIN.WASH. Another option for coarse and curly hair is Cove Hydrate Shampoo.

Flat, Limp Hair
We recommend a volumizing shampoo. THe Eleven I want Body Volume Shampoo is a perfect lightweight shampoo that creates body, volume, and shine.

4.
Fine + Thinning Hair
For fine and thinning hair, you should look for a plumping or thickening shampoo. RPM and KEVIN.MURPHY both offer wonderful shampoos that thicken your hair without weighing down it down.

5.
Chemically Damaged
If your hair is chemically damaged, we recommend investing in a reparative shampoo.

Dry + Thirsty Hair
Don't confuse chemically damaged hair with dry, thirsty hair! If you feel like your hair is dry and damaged but have never had it colored or chemically treated, it might just need some hydration!

To keep your blond looking fresh and free from brassy tones, we recommend using a purple shampoo!

Oily Scalp
If you struggle with an oily scalp, we recommend you try using a PH balancing shampoo. The KEVIN.MURPHY BALANCING.WASH gently and effectively cleanses your hair and scalp.

9.
Dry Scalp
If you have a dry scalp, we recommend an exfoliating, PH balancing, or stimulating shampoos. These will help to remove dandruff and soothe your irritated scalp.

Great post! Choosing the right shampoo really depends on understanding your specific hair type and needs. I used to buy whatever was on sale, but once I switched to the Best Shampoo for Your Hair Type from Uni ZXC, I saw a huge difference. Their options are tailored for dryness, damage, and even color-treated hair — plus the ingredients are natural and gentle. My hair feels healthier and more manageable now. Posts like this are a great reminder that one-size-fits-all doesn’t apply to hair care. Super helpful breakdown, thanks for sharing!
