Shampoo is the cleansing step that sets up the rest of your haircare routine. The right formula should remove excess oil, sweat, styling residue and everyday build-up while leaving both the scalp and lengths feeling comfortable.

At Vault, we curate shampoos across a range of hair and scalp needs, from gentle everyday cleansers to more targeted formulas for dryness, sensitivity, damage or build-up. Some are designed for frequent washing, while others focus more heavily on hydration, strengthening or scalp support.

Choosing the right shampoo comes down to how your hair behaves between washes and what your scalp needs most. If you wash often, a gentler formula may be a better fit. If your hair feels dry or processed, look for something more hydrating, while oilier scalps or heavy product users may prefer a cleanser with a fresher, more thorough finish.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I choose the right shampoo?

+

Start with your scalp and hair type. Dry or processed hair may suit a more hydrating formula, while oilier scalps can benefit from a cleanser that removes build-up effectively without feeling harsh.

How often should I wash my hair?

+

There is no single rule. How often you wash depends on your hair type, scalp, styling habits and lifestyle. Some people wash daily, while others prefer several days between washes.

Should shampoo only be applied to the scalp?

+

In most cases, shampoo is best focused on the scalp and roots, where oil and build-up tend to collect. The lather that runs through the lengths during rinsing is often enough to cleanse them.

Do I need to shampoo twice?

+

Not always. A second cleanse can be useful if your hair is very oily, has a lot of styling product or has gone several days between washes, but one thorough cleanse may be enough for everyday use.

What is the difference between hydrating and clarifying shampoo?

+

Hydrating shampoos focus on cleansing while helping hair feel softer and less dry, while clarifying shampoos are generally designed to remove heavier build-up more thoroughly. Clarifying formulas are often used less frequently.
