Picking the right shampoo and conditioner

Professional Hair Products at
Elite Hair Studio and Spa

Do you sometimes ask yourself what shampoo to pick and what conditioner?

There is a huge variety available in the market and every brand has its own marketing spin. They all claim to give you full, shiny and strong hair. However, not all shampoos and conditioners are the same. And picking the right ones makes a big difference for your individual skin and hair condition.

As a general rule, we advise our clients: Focus on the scalp when picking the shampoo and on the hair when picking the conditioner.

Shampooing your scalp will properly remove dirt, oil and hair products. For example, if you have a oily scalp, pick a shampoo that is best suited for this condition. We would recommend volumizing, strengthening, or balancing shampoos. They won't add as much moisture to your scalp as others.

Conditioning one the other hand focuses on the hair. It will replenish moisture, seal down the cuticle of your hair, and balance the pH value. It will also increase shine and decrease static and hence make your hair easier to manage. If, for example, you are having dry hair, pick a conditioner that is best suited to hydrate your dry ends.

Please ask one of our stylists with your next appointment for a free and individual consultation. We'd be happy to give you our professional advice for the best at-home-care for your hair & scalp.
