Shampoos are important, but are very easy to choose because nearly all indicate the type of hair they are for. Shampoos that are labelled ‘pH balanced’ are designed to have the same pH as the oils in the hair (normally 4.5-5.5) and are designed for fragile, permed or coloured hair.
Medicated shampoos are pH 7.3, which is nearly neutral and are designed to be very gentle to the scalp. Your shampoo should be changed every now and then, as hair seems to develop a resistance to certain ingredients after a period of time.
Sometimes the hair can get congested with styling products, this is known as ‘product build-up’. When this happens the hair cannot be efficiently conditioned, coloured or permed. Luckily, there are special shampoos available that remove the residue that causes product build-up. These are recognised as stripping, chelating or clarifying shampoos.
A properly trained hairdresser will assess whether these shampoos need to be used before a perm, colour or intensive conditioning treatment.
