In recent years, shampoo products have emerged in an endless stream, and the multifarious slogans and complex formula list are even more dazzling. Recently, the Japanese beauty and health network “wooris” has integrated the characteristics and main ingredients of common shampoos in the market to help you find suitable and safe shampoos according to your own situation.
Acetic acid series: suitable for hairy hair.
Key words of the formula: lauryl alcohol polyether-3 sodium acetate, dichlorobenzene acetate and biguanide hexane (chlorhexidine), etc.
This kind of shampoo is characterized by rich foam, but its decontamination and washing power are slightly poor. It is weakly acidic and has little irritation to the scalp. It can interact with the charge on the hair to keep the hair smooth and flat without being irritable.
Amino acid series: suitable for dry hair.
Keywords in the formula table: sodium lauroyl glutamine, sodium lauroyl ether sulfate, etc.
This kind of shampoo is naturally weak acidic and has a slightly low decontamination power. However, since hair and scalp are also weak acidic, it is less irritating and has strong moisturizing ability. Almost all shampoos used in hair salons belong to this department, which is conducive to the maintenance of scalp and hair, but the cost is high.
Betaine series: suitable for sensitive skin.
Key words of the formula table: sodium cocoyl glutamine, cocoamide propyl betaine, etc.
These ingredients are mostly extracted from beet. They are less irritating than amino acid shampoo and have better moisturizing effect. They are suitable for people with sensitive skin and are also beneficial to repairing damaged hair.
Glucoside series: suitable for daily washing and care.
Key words of the formula table: “a certain glucoside”, such as dodecyl glucoside.
The main component of this shampoo is extracted from glucose, which has a slightly weak decontamination power, but is less irritating, high safety and rich in foam. It is usually mixed with amino acids to enhance the decontamination effect without reducing the safety.
Protein system: suitable for damaged hair.
Key words of formula table: hydrolyzed collagen, milk, etc.
This kind of shampoo mainly contains protein components such as milk and collagen. Foam is less and the most expensive, but it can nourish hair and repair protein damaged hair.
In addition to the above five types of shampoos, there are two types of shampoos that may cause harm to hair. Consumers are advised to use them with caution.
Sulfuric acid series: relatively cheap.
Key words of the formula table: sodium dodecyl ether sulfate (sles), sodium dodecyl sulfate (SLS), etc.
This ingredient has low production cost and is usually used in cheap shampoo. This kind of shampoo has very strong decontamination and cleaning power, but it may also wash away the essential oils beneficial to the health of the scalp and hair.
Stone alkali system: it will dry hair.
Key words of formula table: fatty acid sodium salt, sodium hydroxide (caustic soda), etc.
The advantage of this kind of shampoo is that it has strong decontamination and cleaning power and superior biodegradability, so it is more environmentally friendly. However, because it is alkaline, it is easy to dry the scalp and hair, and too strong decontamination power can easily wash away the necessary sebum.
