Aussie Opposites Attract ShampooWhen Aussie celebrity stylist Sarah Potempa said Aussie Opposites Attract Protect and Soften Shampoo works for all hair types, I had my doubts. But after using it (with Opposites Attract Conditioner), I became a believer. Aussie seems to have foun...More |

Aveda Smooth Infusion Shampoo$20.00A shampoo that helps straighten hair seems like a hoax, but this one appears to work. It made blow-drying my long waves into a straight style easier, although I did use the coordinating Smooth Infusion Conditioner, which seems to be key to getting the full benefits. The shampoo contains luxurious smoothing and hydrating ing...More |

Aussie Moist Shampoo$3.99A classic, everyday shampoo. Hair feels full, soft and healthy -- whether it's due to jojoba oil and aloe, as the label claims, or moisture-binding dimethicone (which is higher up on the ingredient list) doesn't matter. It works. The excellent lather and fruity, edible scent of this bargain-priced shampoo make it more lovab...More |

Frederic Fekkai Technician Shampoo for Dry, Damaged HairBetween blow-drying, flat-ironing and highlighting, my hair is so very pissed off. It has even started fighting back. To combat the straw, I enlisted Fekkai's restorative fruit cocktail -- a gentle peach-apricot-avocado shampoo that promises "abused hair" will be strengthened, protected and moisturized. The rich p...More |

Aussie Moist 2 in 1 Shampoo$3.99A classic, everyday shampoo. Hair feels full, soft and healthy -- whether it's due to jojoba oil and aloe, as the label claims, or moisture-binding dimethicone (which is higher up on the ingredient list) doesn't matter.

Herbal Essences Hello Hydration Moisturizing Shampoo$3.89If you can get past the silly directives on the back ("Repeat after me: I'm so quenched"), this moisturizing shampoo will become your new standby. It's not the most hydrating on the market (that title belongs to the Infusium line), but it'll get your hair clean, and not dry or tangly. The flowery, coconut scent is...More |

John Frieda Brilliant Brunette Lustrous Touch Smoothing Shampoo$5.39John Frieda Brilliant Brunette Lustrous Touch Smoothing Shampoo is a little difficult to rinse out, doesn't add much shine and smells too artificially chocolate, but the creamy formula leaves hair smooth and soft. I was a bit concerned that the heavy product would weigh my fine hair down, but even used with the equally crea...More |

Suave Professionals Humectant Shampoo$2.99If you don't want to spring for Nexxus Therappe, this milky, pearlescent shampoo works almost as well (although the flip-cap bottle won't look as nice in the shower). Nexxus has a leg up with more fatty acids and avocado oil, but Suave contains many common or comparable ingredients like silk amino acids and honey that clean...More |

Redken Blonde Glam Shampoo$9.98Blonde hair gets a boost with this shampoo that leaves color brighter and hair softer. Don't expect a miracle but do expect it to work better than shampoos in John Frieda's Sheer Blonde line. The formula smells great -- like sunshine on wildflowers -- lathers easily, adds shine with crystal mica and protects with a UV filte...More |

Marc Anthony Aroma Organics Smoothing Shampoo$5.99Aveda lovers will adore the scent, but that could be where the love affair ends. It's jelly-like and doesn't yield a frothy lather. The word "organics" in the title will annoy true organic lovers since many of the ingredients on the label are three and four syllables long -- a good indication that they're not enti...More |
