Salon Trusted’s Guide on How to Choose the Right Shampoo and Conditioner for Your Hair Type


Tired of trying out different shampoos and conditioners, only to find out that they don’t work for your hair type? At Salon Trusted, we cover a wide variety of hair products including shampoos and conditioners for all kinds of hair types. So here is our guide on How to Choose the Right Shampoo and Conditioner for Your Hair Type.

Here, we’re offering an extensive guide on how to choose the right shampoo and conditioner for your hair type. But first, we will discuss the different types of hair and some of the common hair problems faced by everyone.

In this handy guide, we will help you find the best shampoo for all hair types including specific shampoos for hair loss. Read on for a brief guide on how to know if a particular shampoo suits your hair. Keep on reading to see how the Just My Type Trial Boxes may be the right fit for you! 

Identify Your Hair Type 

There are four main natural hair types around the world. The most common of these is straight hair, the second is wavy hair, the third most common hair type is curly hair, and the fourth is kinky or coiled hair. Once you know your hair type, you can easily choose the right products to care for it. Whether you have fine, thick, curly, straight, dry, oily, or even coloured hair, there will always be a product that will suit your needs and preferences. At Salon Trusted, we focus on selling shampoos and conditioners that can help you choose the right shampoo and conditioners to take care of your specific hair type. 

The Most Common Hair Problems 

Some of the most common hair problems you may face are dandruff, hair loss, thinning of hair, dry hair, frizzy hair, fine hair, knots in hair, and split ends. Please note that wearing tight elastics or braids can also cause hair loss at your hairline. Other factors such as improper or poor diet, and even stress can cause temporary hair loss or affect the quality of your hair. So generally, eat well and properly. However, any of the common hair problems mentioned before can easily be fixed by using the right shampoo and conditioner for your specific hair type. A hair product tailored to your hair problem will fix your scalp, and in turn, help you grow the hair you have always dreamed of. This guide will help you choose the right shampoo and conditioner for your hair type to help combat these issues.

Understanding Your Scalp 

First off, it is important to identify your scalp type before choosing a shampoo. All shampoos have different cleansing capabilities; choose one that is perfect for your scalp type. 

After washing, if your scalp feels tight or dry (with or without flakes), you have a dry scalp.

After washing, if your scalp feels oily or shinier than usual, you have an oily scalp. Additionally, in an oily scalp, dandruff will appear as flakes that are clumped together. 

Finally, if your scalp gets oily two to three days after shampooing instead of the day after, then you have a combination or combo scalp. This one is neither dry nor oily immediately. 

Finding the Best Shampoo for All Hair Types 

The Best Products to Revive & Restore Damaged Hair
The Best Products to Revive & Restore Damaged Hair

The best shampoo for all hair types cleanses the scalp and hair without stripping it of its natural oils. It contains ingredients that nourish and protect the hair. Your scalp produces natural oils that keep your hair healthy and moisturised, but too much or too little of these oils can cause problems. 

If you have an oily scalp, you may want to use a clarifying shampoo that removes excess oil and dirt without stripping your hair of its natural moisture. 

If you have a dry scalp, you may want to use a hydrating shampoo that nourishes and soothes your scalp while adding moisture to your hair. Take a look at the Just My Type Trial Box for Dry Hair to see if these products work for you.

If you have a sensitive or damaged scalp, you may want to use a gentle shampoo free of harsh chemicals and fragrances that can irritate your skin. Browse the Just My Type Trial Box for Damaged Hair for an ideal fit.

If you have fine hair, you may want to use a shampoo that adds volume and body without weighing down your hair. 

For curly hair, you may want to use a shampoo that is free of sulphate and contains moisturising ingredients like shea butter or coconut oil. 

And if you have colour-treated hair, you may want to use a shampoo that is free of sulphate and contains UV filters to protect your colour from fading. Try out the Just My Type Trial Box for Coloured Hair for your hair. 

How to Choose a Shampoo for Hair Loss 

If you’re experiencing hair loss or thinning hair, look for shampoos that contain ingredients that stimulate hair growth. It is also important to avoid shampoos that contain harsh chemicals like sulphates or parabens that can damage your hair. Also, choose a shampoo that contains natural active ingredients such as biotin, caffeine, green tea, and saw palmetto. These ingredients have been shown to help reduce thinning hair and hair loss. 

At Salon Trusted, you can buy the following products that can help you with hair loss:

It is ideal for natural hair light thinning. The cleanser will deeply cleanse your scalp, the scalp revitaliser will rejuvenate your scalp, and the scalp treatment will help you easily style your hair. 

This product is ideal for natural hair thinning. Just shampoo with Cleanser Shampoo, then condition your hair with Scalp Therapy Revitalising Conditioner, and lastly, treat your hair with Scalp & Hair Treatment. 

How to Know If a Shampoo Suits Your Hair 

Try out a few shampoos before you settle for one. You will eventually find one that works perfectly for your hair type.

 Try out these tips: 

  • Check the ingredients list:
    Look for ingredients that match your hair type and avoid ingredients that can harm your hair. 
  • Do a patch test:
    Before using a new shampoo on your entire head, do a patch test on a small section of your hair. Apply the shampoo and rinse it off after a few minutes. Check how your hair feels and looks after drying. If it feels soft, smooth, and shiny, the shampoo is likely suitable for your hair. If it feels rough, dull, or tangled, the shampoo may not be suitable for your hair. 
  • Observe the results over time:
    Sometimes it takes a few washes to see the full effects of shampoo on your hair. Observe how your hair behaves over time after using a new shampoo. If it improves in texture, volume, shine, or manageability, the shampoo is likely suitable for your hair. If it worsens in any of these aspects or causes irritation or itching on your scalp, the shampoo may not be suitable for your hair.
