Shampoocan make or break your hair (literally)! Cleaning your hair and caring for it at the same time 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. 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. A shampoo is therefore comparable 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. Diving into this is a very 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 therefore the daily extra bit of love for your hair that makes your locks shine!
What kind of shampoo should I use?
This question cannot be answered simply by everyone, because it depends on what requirements you place on a shampoo. For some, a silver shampoo with a lot of violet pigment is the best shampoo, while others are looking for a natural shampoo that is completely free of harmful ingredients. So before you go any further, it is important that you are clear about what shampoo you should do for your hair, what you find important with regard to ingredients and approximately what 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, even though it is a good shampoo.
Look at your hair, and only then start looking for a good shampoo. Below we have made an overview of all the different categories of shampoos you can choose from:
- Shampoo for curly hair: Curls can hardly be compared to other hair types. In addition, each curl type requires different care.
- Shampoo for colored hair: A color treatment can affect your hair condition. That is why it is important that dyed hair receives the right aftercare and a little extra love, so that it can recover.
- Shampoo that refreshes and maintains your blonde color: Are you already 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 volume 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. You can stimulate hair growth with a shampoo against hair loss.
- Shampoo for oily hair: Do you suffer from hair that quickly becomes greasy? Then an intensely cleansing shampoo might be the solution!
- Shampoo for a sensitive scalp : a mild cleanser specially developed for sensitive scalps and is often free of aggressive ingredients, such as harmful alcohol, sulphates, perfume 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!

What exactly does SLS (sulphates) do?
Shampoo has been developed to rid your hair of dirt. 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, extra ingredients are sometimes added to make it foam. Nowadays foam is linked to clean. Your hair naturally contains oil, too much natural oil causes strands to look greasy. Then the shampoo comes around the corner. The shampoo washes grease and dirt from your hair. The fat ensures that the soap particles do not stick to each other, but to the fat. Then there will be no foam. If you wash your hair again you will notice that more soap bubbles are formed. This is because the fat content is now much lower, which creates many strong soap-soap bonds. They 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 today are looking for shampoos free of SLS and parabens such asAttitude shampoos . However, nowadays 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 cause your hair cuticles to open, allowing dirt to be removed better and 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 provide your locks with extra nourishment usingtreatments.
Today's shampoos are becoming increasingly milder, which contributes to an improved condition for hair and scalp.
What is the best hairdressing shampoo?
A hairdressing shampoo, is that actually better than a 'normal' shampoo from Etos or Kruidvat or is that a nice marketing stunt? The price difference is really there, even if the well-known hairdressing shampoo is on offer online. There is indeed a difference between a hairdressing shampoo and a regular shampoo, namely the ingredients used. In other words, a price difference that can indeed be traced back. A hairdressing shampoo contains more high-quality ingredients that actually do something for your hair. Whether it is caring for or neutralizing yellow tones, there is more of it. You can often trace this back to the ingredients list, the further the ingredient is at the top of the ingredients list, the more of it is present.
In addition, a hairdressing 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. There is often also an option for cruelty free or even vegan!
The results of long-term use of a hairdressing shampoo are certainly striking and therefore require a higher price. The production costs are higher, so the sales price is higher :)

Is hair loss and flakes caused by overly aggressive shampoo?
If you use shampoo that foams strongly, you are dealing with a strong soap substance, which strips and unbalances your scalp. How do you know if this is also the case with you? If your scalp feels a bit tight, dry or itchy after washing with a shampoo, then your skin's natural nourishing barrier has disappeared. This can cause your scalp to flake and eventually your hair can become thinner or fall out. Logical, because healthy and lush hair growth requires a healthy scalp. If you recognize yourself in this, we recommend that yougo to the Shampoo for fine/thin hair or hair loss page. Here you will find mild shampoos for sensitive scalps.

Wash colored locks with a good shampoo
If you have colored locks, you look further than just removing dirt and grease. You want a shampoo that protects the color of your locks. It is of course a shame if your beautiful color changes into a faint color that has become dull due to the use of incorrect hair care. Extra care is also required, because dyed strands become brittle more quickly, break faster and can feel dry. It is therefore a must that you choose a shampoo that has really been developed forcolored hair.
Which shampoo is suitable if I don't wash my hair every day?
If you don't wash your beautiful locks every day, 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 dry shampoo as a substitute for a good shampoo. The fact is that 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's exactly what you don't want! Of course, a shampoo is there for a reason ;)
