Davines Volu Volume Enhancing Shampoo, 250 ml

Product Information

What We Love: This shampoo is made with a wheat protein and organic aloe blend that tames frizz and adds shine. Because volumizing products can dry out hair, it’s important to use them sparingly. “To avoid dryness, it’s best to shampoo the hair twice or a maximum of three times a week, especially when using a volumizing shampoo,” says Valcin. If your hair is extremely dry, you can try using a moisturizing hair mask, a hydrating hair serum, or a deep conditioner to give it the moisture boost it needs after using a volumizing shampoo. Your Questions, Answered Is volumizing shampoo bad for hair? Volumizing shampoo gives hair lift and strengthens each strand to give hair the appearance of fullness and bounce," explain Jenny Cho, celebrity hairstylist and ambassador of Superzero. "Some shampoos do that with synthetic volumizing ingredients but I prefer clean shampoo that has the right balance between cleansing and conditioning agents to ensure hair health and natural volume without extra weight and unnecessary build-up." If you ask us, drugstore hair care products are just as worthy of praise as their more expensive counterparts. This Nioxin cleansing shampoo is part of a three-step regimen that is specially formulated to strengthen hair over time and reduce thinning. The shampoo works by removing dirt, excessive oil, and other residues from the scalp and hair, thus unclogging pores and promoting hair growth. After just a few washes, you’ll notice that your hair looks and feels fuller.

If you've sliced out the silicones and your hair still looks sad after washing, Garbutt recommends adding in a scalp scrub or clarifying shampoo once weekly to remove any build-up of product (especially that dry shampoo you love) and oil. After a recommendation? Living Proof's charcoal-based Triple Detox formula is the beauty team's unequivocal favourite.

I just make sure to coat my ends with the brand's lightweight conditioner before lathering up with the shampoo, which helps offset some of the potential dryness. But overall, it makes my hair look so full and lifted. I've been getting compliments on my hair since I started using the system—and I honestly think a lot of it is this ultra-simple yet effective shampoo. Out of all the clarifying shampoo I've ever tried, this is by far the best for my highlighted, oily hair. All the oil and buildup on my scalp can weigh my hair down and make it look like it's sitting flat against my head, which is why I massage this through my roots once a week and let the salicylic acid and charcoal help break down grime and product residue. And the best part? It does it all without sulfates that can fade my hair dye. What We Love: Infused with peppermint oil, this cleansing shampoo eliminates oil and dirt from the scalp. One thing that earns this shampoo a spot on this list is its ability to give hair noticeable bounce: It lifts at the roots while also adding texture to the tips, meaning your strands will look voluminous and full from the top to the bottom. And, it’s worth noting that this shampoo is free from sulfates and parabens — a major plus!

What We Don’t Love: The shampoo works best when it’s paired with the Aveda Pure Abundance Conditioner. Generally speaking, volumizing hair products are safe for hair. Just be sure they don’t contain sulfates or paraffin since these can dry out hair and ultimately make strands brittle and damaged. Aside from being mindful of your volumizing shampoo’s ingredients, it’s important to make sure you’re not overwashing your hair. “Shampooing twice a week is usually good,” Viola says. This ensures that the scalp is not stripped of its natural oils. What We Don’t Love: The scent is uniquely floral, making it smell very perfume-like (it takes a certain type of nose to appreciate it).
