of the highest regarded names in the hair care and hairstyling industry, with decades of hairstyling experience between them and unrivalled knowledge about which hair care products are the best to buy, including shampoos.</strong></p><p><a href=\"https://www.instagram.com/richardwardhair/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Richard Ward</a> is an award-winning hairstylist who has styled the hair of top celebrities, including Elizabeth Hurley, Kim Cattrall and Poppy Delevingne, and even British Royalty, with Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge, and Sophie, Countess of Wessex, among his clients.</p><p><a href=\"https://www.instagram.com/laurarugetti\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Laura Rugetti</a> is one of the biggest names in celebrity hair in the US, styling the locks of some of the biggest celebrity names, like Paris Hilton, Kelly Osbourne and Amelia Gray Hamlin, as well as some of the biggest names in reality TV, including Selling Sunset’s Christine Quinn, The Hill’s Audrina Partridge and several cast members of the Real Housewives franchise.</p><p>We put three questions to both of them to understand precisely what you need to know when shopping for your new shampoo and got their expert recommendations of the best shampoos to buy and why.</p><h3 id=\"what-should-you-look-for-when-buying-shampoo-bc36f942\"><strong>What should you look for when buying shampoo?</strong></h3><p>“Depending on your hair type. Look for what’s best for you”, says Laura. The best shampoo will ultimately depend on your hair type, “if you need a volume shampoo for fine hair. Or a hydrating shampoo for dry hair.”</p><p>Richard agrees, “It really depends on their hair type, texture and density, as well as addressing any concerns like heat damage or scalp sensitivity.”</p><p>“In general, you get what you pay for, so more expensive brands will be more concentrated and with better ingredients.”, he adds, warning that “cheaper brands will have a higher detergent content. Look for something SLS and Paraben free.”</p><h3 id=\"what-should-you-avoid-when-looking-for-shampoo-e1e4db04\"><strong>What should you avoid when looking for shampoo?</strong></h3><p>When it comes to what you should avoid, Laura has one top tip, “avoid sulphates”. Sulphates are the additives that give shampoo formulas their thick lather and are designed to help strip the hair of oils and dirt.</p><p>However, when used too often, sulphates can strip away too much of the hair’s natural moisture, leaving it dry and unhealthy. They may also make the scalp dry and prone to irritation, so they’re best avoided when you’re looking for a shampoo that you’ll use regularly.</p><p>Similarly to sulphates, Richard warns against using strong anti-dandruff products. “Anti-dandruff shampoos are very strong, and most clients don’t actually have dandruff, just dry scalp which needs moisture not harsh stripping ingredients which will only serve to exacerbate the problem.”</p><h3 id=\"which-is-the-best-shampoo-14a2a8cc\"><strong>Which is the best shampoo?</strong></h3><p>“<a href=\"https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00KQXIJB8?tag=recommende0df-21&ascsubtag=therecommended-408\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"sponsored\">Kevin Murphy</a> line of shampoos are my go-to!” says Laura, “they have a different shampoo for every type of hair. My favourite for volume is the plumping shampoo.”</p><p>“<a href=\"https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07D3T2YPV?tag=recommende0df-21&ascsubtag=therecommended-408\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"sponsored\">Kerastase</a> is a great range which treats a variety of hair concerns and types”, says Richard, “<a href=\"https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0891843GC?tag=recommende0df-21&ascsubtag=therecommended-408\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"sponsored\">Pureology</a> and Shu Uemura are also our favourites.”</p><h2 id=\"shampoo-buyers-guide-fd203063\">Shampoo buyer's guide</h2>"}},{"@type":"Content","@id":"/v5/.well-known/genid/87b363c8c6e61611af7f","type":"image","data":{"url":"https://images.immediate.co.uk/production/volatile/sites/47/2022/02/GettyImages-1447509153-1-530242d.jpg","width":6000,"height":4000,"title":"Shampoo","alt":"Shampoo","aspectRatio":0.6661290322580645,"caption":null,"contain":"all","sourceName":null}},{"@type":"Content","@id":"/v5/.well-known/genid/b41ec181c10f6dbc78b7","type":"html","data":{"value":"<p>We've rounded up some of the most commonly asked questions about shampoo and done our research to answer them, so you can be sure you know everything you need to when buying your next bottle.</p><h3 id=\"how-to-choose-the-perfect-shampoo-737b7c7c\"><strong>How to choose the perfect shampoo</strong></h3><p>Choosing the right shampoo for your hair can make a big difference in achieving luscious locks.

Or a hydrating shampoo for dry hair.”\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRichard agrees, “It really depends on their hair type, texture and density, as well as addressing any concerns like heat damage or scalp sensitivity.”\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e“In general, you get what you pay for, so more expensive brands will be more concentrated and with better ingredients.”, he adds, warning that “cheaper brands will have a higher detergent content.

Sulphates are the additives that give shampoo formulas their thick lather and are designed to help strip the hair of oils and dirt.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHowever, when used too often, sulphates can strip away too much of the hair’s natural moisture, leaving it dry and unhealthy. They may also make the scalp dry and prone to irritation, so they’re best avoided when you’re looking for a shampoo that you’ll use regularly.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSimilarly to sulphates, Richard warns against using strong anti-dandruff products. “Anti-dandruff shampoos are very strong, and most clients don’t actually have dandruff, just dry scalp which needs moisture not harsh stripping ingredients which will only serve to exacerbate the problem.”\u003c/p\u003e\u003ch3 id=\"which-is-the-best-shampoo-14a2a8cc\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhich is the best shampoo?\u003c/strong\u003e\u003c/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e“\u003ca href=\"https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00KQXIJB8?tag=recommende0df-21\u0026amp;ascsubtag=therecommended-408\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"sponsored\"\u003eKevin Murphy\u003c/a\u003e line of shampoos are my go-to!” says Laura, “they have a different shampoo for every type of hair.
