Stuck in a hair rut? How your hairstyle turns out depends on what you’re using to wash your mane. Finding the right shampoo for your hair type is the first step to beautiful hair. Nykaa’s Shampoo Masterclass will help you find the right formula to suds up.
1. Normal Hair
You’re lucky to have low maintenance strands. Look for a sulfate-free formula ‘suitable for all hair types’ that nourishes, smoothens and detangles without stripping natural oils and moisture from strands.

2. Dry Hair
Dry, brittle strands need a rich, creamy moisturizing shampoo and conditioner combo to restore bounce and gloss. Must-have ingredients include nourishing creams, oils and proteins.

3. Oily Hair
People with oily hair need a shampoo that cleanses oils from strands, tones the scalp and prevents clogged follicles. Look for formulations with higher levels of astringent, and thickening ingredients like Panthenol or Wheat Protein.

L'Oreal Professionnel Instant Clear Znpt+Citric Acid Anti Dandruff Shampoo
4. Curly/Frizzy Hair
You need a shampoo that restores bounciness minus the frizz. Look for nourishing, low-foaming, sulfate-free shampoos with added Silicones and Proteins to restore moisture to strands.

5. Rough Hair
Coarse hair needs frequent shampooing. Use super hydrating, creamy shampoos infused with Coconut, Olive or Shea Butter; and extra moisturizing conditioners that coat hair cuticles to trap moisture for extra softness.

Matrix Opti Smooth Straight Professional Ultra Smoothing Shampoo Shea Butter
6. Fine Hair
A full, voluminous head of hair is just a lather-rinse-repeat away. You need a formula that thickens strands but isn’t so creamy that it weighs hair down. Gentle shampoos marked for volume and daily or frequent washing are your best bets.

Garnier Ultra Blends Mythic Olive Shampoo
7. Colored Hair
Chemically treated hair needs extra loving! Pick a shampoo that preserves the luminosity of strands, sun protects and prevents the color from fading. Ideally, they should also be infused with UV filters that prevent color from fading.
