FAQ
What does professional salon quality shampoo do?
L’Oréal Professionnel's salon quality shampoo works to clean your hair using the power of surfactants, which allow detergent in shampoo to bind oils like sebum and particles of dirt, then lift it away from the hair to be washed out. L’Oréal Professionnel has a wide range of multitasking salon quality shampoo to not only cleanse but also address additional hair needs such as adding volume or reducing fragility and breakage.
How often should you shampoo your hair?
There are multiple factors affecting how frequently you should shampoo your hair such as environmental pollutants, how often you work out, weather, and many more. At the end of the day, the frequency with which you wash your hair will be different to the next person. Even for just yourself, if you are producing more sweat during hotter seasons or you're increasing the amount of exercise you do, the frequency of shampooing your hair will fluctuate. If using one of L’Oréal Professionnel's expert quality hair salon shampoos, repeated shampooing in the same sitting isn't necessary and should be avoided to minimise drying out hair and irritating the scalp.
How much hair salon shampoo should you use?
When deciding how much shampoo to use, it will depend on the amount of buildup and also the density of your hair. Start small (think 5 cent coin) to avoid overdoing it and drying out your hair with excessive amounts of shampoo. A little will go a long way with L’Oréal Professionnel's range of high quality hair salon shampoo.
Do you shampoo the ends of your hair?
Sebum is produced by glands within the skin, so usually it's enough to focus on the buildup next to your scalp when you shampoo your hair. Hair at the lengths and tips tends to be drier, so focus conditioner on these areas instead.
Does L’Oréal Professionnel's shampoo for hair expire?
L’Oréal Professionnel's professional shampoo generally has a long shelf life with a recommended time to discard after opening indicated by a small image of an open jar and a number like 12M (meaning 12 months). However, storage factors such as temperature, exposure to UV, and contamination can affect its lifespan. If you use shampoo beyond the recommended period, it is unlikely to damage your hair, but may be less effective. If you notice any abnormal smells, discolouration, changes in appearance (such as turning cloudy if it was previously clear), then best to err on the side of caution and discard the shampoo product.
What is L’Oréal Professionnel's clarifying shampoo?
