The Professional's Guide to Shampoo and Conditioner

The Professional's Guide to Shampoo and Conditioner

Finding the best products on the market can often feel like a minefield, especially when so many options exist. Choosing a product which performs well and will leave your client's hair looking catwalk ready can be challenging. As a responsible salon, you may also wish to consider a product's impact on the environment and look for a more sustainable option.

With all this to consider, it could take you hours, if not days trialling and testing various shampoos and conditioners to find the perfect one for you and your salon. As a leader in providing professional hair products online, we supply only the best products for our clients, which have been put to the test by our experienced stylists.

Should Shampoo and Conditioner Match?

The biggest question from hair stylists and the general public is, "Should I buy the same brand and type of shampoo and conditioner?". Well, essentially, it will all depend on the type of hair and scalp your client has. Shampoos and conditioners do different jobs, therefore will need to be bought with that in mind. As a salon, you may have an extensive collection of various shampoos and conditioners which offer individual functions. For each client, you may find yourself mixing and matching based on their individual needs.

Shampoos concentrate on the roots and scalp of your client, whereas conditioner works on the mid-length and ends. So, while many products recommend using the same products, offering a client’s scalp a cocktail of shampoo and conditioner could provide the best results explicitly designed around their hair needs. In addition, you may wish to consider the finish of the hair to decide on the correct conditioner. For example, if you have a client who wishes for a straightened finish, you may want to consider a smooth and silky conditioner, but if your client would like a blowout with bounce, you may opt for a volumising vegan hair conditioner.

In conclusion, whilst matching your conditioner with your shampoo is not a flawed process, it also isn't a rule, and the condition of your client's hair and scalp should be considered when making your decision.
