  • Understand your scalp too – your hair feeds off your scalp so it follows that if you have an unhealthy scalp you will have unhealthy hair. You should treat your scalp the same way you treat your skin – feed it with essential nutrients so that it can help support a head of beautiful hair. For many, the problem is a dry scalp which is characterized by itchiness, dryness and dandruff. There are many types of hair shampoo that are designed to fight these specific problems.
  • Many women resort to cheap shampoo because they don’t believe that more expensive brands have anything more to offer. This is not always the case. Sometimes you get what you pay for. Cheap shampoos are not formulated with the special ingredients that are required to give your hair a healthy shine and bounce. You should splurge a little and buy something a bit high end.
  • The common wisdom is to steer clear of dry shampoos especially for those who have thin and dry hair, but if you use lots of hair products it is important to use it from time to time. Every time you use a product it is deposited on your scalp and hair and over time it accumulates creating a dull and lifeless look. You can get rid of it using a good dry shampoo.

Lastly, and many people don’t know this, your shampoo and conditioner brands don’t necessarily have to be the same. You may find that one brand of shampoo does wonders for you while the conditioner doesn’t. You can mix products if your hair calls for it.
