Shampoocan (literally) make or break your hair! Cleaning your hair and simultaneously caring for it with a good shampoo that suits your hair type is important to keep your hair in perfect condition. You use shampoo every week or even every day. That is why it is important to know what your hair type is and what your locks need. Haarspullen sells shampoos from various professional brands for all kinds of different hair types. The perfect match that makes your locks shine is guaranteed to be among them. Read on and find out which shampoo is right for you!
What exactly does shampoo do for your hair?
Basically, shampoo is a cleansing agent that removes grease and dirt from your hair. So a shampoo is similar to soap, but shampoo is a lot milder. Your hair and scalp are a lot more sensitive. Certain ingredients have a specific effect and therefore influence the condition, structure and health of your hair. To dive into that is a mega long and complicated process.
Fortunately, professional shampoo brands have made great progress in developing shampoos with exactly the right ingredients that meet a specific need. For example: shampoo for thin/fine hair, shampoo for colored hair, shampoo for thick hair, shampoo for sensitive scalp and so on. This development means that shampoo is now much more than a cleansing soap for your hair. Shampoo also cares for your hair, a restorative agent and thus the daily extra bit of love for your hair that makes your locks shine!
What kind of shampoo should I use?
This question is not easy to answer for everyone, because it depends on what your requirements are for a shampoo. For one person, a silver shampoo with a lot of violet pigment is the best shampoo, while another person is looking for a natural shampoo that is completely free of harmful ingredients. So before you continue, it is important for yourself to be clear about what the shampoo should do for your hair, what you find important with regard to ingredients and how much you want to spend on it. That is also important, because you can make it as expensive as you want...however, this does not always mean the right thing for your hair, while it is a good shampoo.
Look at your hair, and then look for a good shampoo. Below we have made an overview of all the different categories of shampoos that you can choose from:
- Shampoo for curly hair: Curls can hardly be compared to other hair types. In addition, each curl type needs different care.
- Shampoo for colored hair: A color treatment can affect the condition of your hair. That is why it is important that colored hair gets the right aftercare and a little extra love, so that it can recover again.
- Shampoo that refreshes and maintains your blonde color: Are you familiar with silver shampoo? A silver shampoo is a shampoo with violet pigment. Silver shampoo ensures that warm/yellow tones are neutralized.
- Shampoo for extra volume: A volumizing shampoo gives fine and lifeless hair a bouncy volume boost.
- Anti-dandruff shampoo: An anti-dandruff shampoo tackles the scalp and ensures that your scalp and sebum production are restored to balance.
- Shampoo for thin hair/hair loss: The scalp needs to be repaired. With a shampoo against hair loss you stimulate hair growth.
- Shampoo for oily hair: Do you suffer from hair that gets oily quickly? Then an intensely cleansing shampoo might be the solution!
- Shampoo for sensitive scalp : a mild cleanser specially developed for sensitive scalps and is often free from harsh ingredients such as harmful alcohol, sulphates, perfumes and dyes.
- Shampoo for long hair : If you have long hair, washing your hair always takes a lot of effort and time. In addition, you don't want your hair to hang down lifelessly. That's why this category contains all the must-haves for long hair!
- Shampoo Bars: Are you someone who really cares about sustainability? Then take another step towards a more sustainable world with Shampoo Bars! These Bars are a lot better for the environment, because of course there is no plastic bottle around it! Mega handy, compact and innovative!

What exactly does SLS (sulfates) do?
Shampoo is designed to remove dirt from your hair. A common misconception is that a foaming shampoo is effective and cleans extra well. However, foam has nothing to do with cleaning your locks. In other words, sometimes extra ingredients are added so that it foams. Nowadays, foam is linked to clean. Your hair naturally contains fat, too much natural fat makes your locks look greasy. Then comes shampoo. The shampoo washes the fat and dirt out of your hair. The fat ensures that the soap particles do not stick to each other, but to the fat. There is then no foam. If you wash your hair again, you will notice that more soap bubbles are created. This is because the fat content is now much lower, which creates many strong soap-soap bonds. These are strong enough to form soap bubbles.
The cleansing ingredient, the soap substances aka soap bubbles is usually SLS (sodium laureth sulfate).These soap substances are strongly degreasing and alkaline, and strip the scalp of its natural protective layer. That is why many people are now looking for shampoos free of SLS and parabens such as the shampoos fromAttitude. However, you see that it is becoming a trend, so many brands include a shampoo free of SLS and parabens in their range.
The alkaline substances ensure that your hair scales open up, which allows the dirt to be removed better and the nutrients to penetrate deeper into the hair. Although this is an advantage, you should be careful not to do this too often (wash less often) or use a milder shampoo. Another option is to give your locks extra nourishment usingtreatments.
Today's shampoos are becoming increasingly milder, which contributes to an improved condition of hair and scalp.
What is the best hairdressing shampoo?
A hairdresser's shampoo, is that really better than a 'regular' shampoo from Etos or Kruidvat or is that a nice marketing stunt? The price difference is really there, even if the well-known hairdresser's shampoo is on sale online. There is indeed a difference between a hairdresser's shampoo and a regular shampoo, namely the ingredients that are used. In other words, a price difference that can certainly be traced. A hairdresser's shampoo contains more qualitative ingredients that actually do something for your hair. Whether it is caring or neutralizing yellow tones, there is more of it present. You can often trace this back to the list of ingredients, the further up the ingredient is in the list of ingredients, the more of it is present.
In addition, a hairdresser's shampoo contains less junk, or less harmful substances. Think of oil-based silicones that are left behind, aggressive sulphates that are not good for your health or hormone disruptors or other carcinogenic substances that are very common to put in a shampoo. Often there is also an option for cruelty free or even vegan!
The results of long-term use of a hairdressing shampoo are certainly striking and therefore also require a higher price. The production costs are higher, so the sales price is higher :)

Does hair loss and dandruff occur due to overly aggressive shampoo?
If you use a shampoo that foams strongly, you are dealing with a strong soap substance, which strips your scalp and throws it out of balance. How do you know if this is also the case for you? If your scalp feels a bit tight, dry or itchy after washing with a shampoo, then the natural caring barrier of your skin has disappeared. Your scalp can start to flake and in the long run your hair can become thinner or fall out. Logical, because a healthy scalp is necessary for healthy and lush hair growth.

Wash colored locks with a good shampoo
If you have colored locks, you look beyond just removing dirt and grease. You want a shampoo that protects the color of your locks. It would be a shame if your beautiful color changed into a vague color that has become dull, due to the use of the wrong hair care products. Extra care is also required, because dyed locks become brittle faster, break faster and can feel dry. It is therefore a must that you choose a shampoo thatis really developed for colored hair .
Which shampoo is suitable if I don't wash my hair every day?
If you don't wash your beautiful locks every day, then a dry shampoo is an absolute must have. Nowadays, a dry shampoo is not only to freshen up your locks, you can also opt for a dry shampoo that gives volume. However, it is important that you do not use a dry shampoo as a replacement for a good shampoo. The fact is that a dry shampoo does not clean your hair, but degreases it. This allows you to create more time between your washing days. However, if you use too much dry shampoo, it can build up on your scalp. Let's just say that is exactly what you don't want! Of course, a shampoo is there for a reason ;)
