I'm in search of a new shampoo. I've never been loyal to one particular shampoo, plus I know you have to switch between at least two to avoid build-up. I really don't think there is much difference between one and another, despite what they "claim" they can do. I use non-permanent hair color on my hair, and have most recently used the Loreal EverPure and EverStrong brands and now tend to prefer the more concentrated-type of shampoos that really lather up. Now my hair seems to be getting a build-up from it and I need another one to maybe alternate it with. Any suggestions??
Bumble & Bumble - expensive, but I don't wash my hair everyday, or every other day. I don't skimp on shampoo.
Try using either Nutrogena Clarifying Shampoo once, twice a month with your standard shampoo or you can try Wen ... I LOVE IT and I use the Nutrogena once or twice a month due to the products I use in my hair (curly needs help/control).
Love my Dove (sorry for the rhyme)
I used to work for a company that manufactured hair and skin products so I won't "sell" any brand to you. I will tell you most people wash their hair too much. Most of the time I wash my hair every other day and I think that is even too much sometimes. My scalp and hair both felt so much better once I switched from washing it every day.
I will also say, from my experience working at the hair care company the color treated shampoos have the least chemicals and are most gentle on your hair. I don't color my hair, but i still use the color treated shampoo. I don't use any conditioners.
Good Luck.
I LOVE Dove. It's my 'normal' shampoo, and I alternate it with either Pantene or Garnier Fructis. :)
I have been told by several stylist that, believe it or not, Suave and Dove are the best for hair and should not leave a build up. They are also incredibly cheap. Suave has a professional line and I think DOve and Suave both have shampoo for color treated hair
To remove the buildup, you could wash it every couple of weeks with a clarifying shampoo or maybe a swimmers shampoo. They strip the bad stuff, but redposit some good stuff.
Dove is a great alternative to your daily shampoo. Garnier Fructese is great too.
Try the solid bar shampoo from lush. Available at Macy's, downtown or online.
I used to use Neutregena as my "in between" shampoo. Now I use Fructose Garnier Basics in between Pantene .
I've been using Suave for color-treated hair for years and have never had build-up problems.
I use Suave and love it.
Biolage Color Care Shampoo and Conditioner. It seems to preserve the color and the conditioner makes my hair feel soft. I'm older and have aging dry hair. When I used Dove (cheaper) my hairdresser could tell because my hair was getting strawlike and brittle. The Biolage is more expensive but does make my hair smoother and less frizzy.
I don't color my hair bit I used to use Pantene (It's cheap!) till every hair person said I had a ton of build up. I tried Bed head, and I have noticed a difference surprisingly. I always figured they were the same, but my hair does feel smoother and nice now.
