At Salon HER, we’re all about transforming your hair. But sometimes that means nailing the basics: like shampoo. Each hair type has its own traits and they all need different care. Our team is here to guide you to your perfect match so you can get the gorgeous, healthy hair you deserve.
Fine or thin hair:
Those with fine hair will know all too well that volume is your best friend. Invest in a good-quality volumising shampoo which can give your hair a lift without weighing it down. Avoid heavy moisturising shampoos that can make fine hair look and feel greasy.

Thick hair:
Thick hair can handle richer shampoos, so look for products that add moisture and manageability.

Curly or coily hair:
This hair type can tend to be dry, so it needs shampoos that add moisture and definition. The perfect creamy, hydrating shampoo can help maintain the natural curl pattern and prevent frizz.

While the first step in getting your best hair ever is choosing the right shampoo for your hair type, it’s also worth picking a shampoo that matches your scalp type. Your scalp can be oily, dry, or a combination of both. An oily scalp produces excess sebum, which can make hair look greasy, while a dry scalp may flake and itch. To complicate things further, you may also have a combination scalp, meaning you may be oily in some areas and dry in others. Sound confusing? Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered. The Salon HER team can assess your hair to help you pick the best shampoo for your hair type and scalp.
