But trying to replicate the same va-va-voom volume at home is a whole other story.
Of course, there are plenty of shampoo brands out on the market from salon staples to drugstore finds.
So without further ado, here are The List Beauty Awards: shampoo addition!
We found that the sulfate-free formula soothes the scalp and helps control dryness and itchiness.
This was especially impressive considering the sulfate-free formula.
This shampoo degreased our roots while imparting a healthy, hydrated shine that wasn’t oily.
Even though it’s hydrating, the shampoo gave us plenty of volume and lift at the roots.
This product also seemed to clear build-up from the scalp, as promised.
However, because this is an exfoliating formula, you may see small flakes of dead skin appear.
Fortunately, they’re easy to brush off.
The finished look is phenomenal, and even more impressive is its affordable price.
Unfortunately, this shampoo is not color-safe and we have pink ends.
The formula was slightly runny and smelled like a generic hotel shampoo.
The deep-cleansing claims checked out as it removed the build-up on our scalp and degreased our roots.
Our roots had plenty of volume and lift, and the finished look was stunning.
Biolage Colorlast Shampoo: Runner-up
Hairdresser Arnie Miller started Biolage back in 1990.
According to theBiolage website, the shampoo is designed to gently cleanse and maintain color saturation.
It contains exfoliating salicylic acid and wild orchid extract.
In our test, it rated high in tool, scalp build-up removal, degreasing capabilities, and volume.
The clean orchid scent was pleasing, and the shampoo removed all the scalp build-up we had.
Our hair sprung up slightly and felt lighter after use.
We triedNioxin’s System 4 shampoo($21) for color-treated hair with progressed thinning.
The shampoo contains exfoliating salicylic acid,peptides, and peppermint oil.
In the end, we rated it highly in formula, program, and scalp build-up removal.
The gel formula lathers well, covering the whole scalp easily.
Plus, it smells invigorating and feels refreshing.
It removes build-up without dehydrating the scalp or stripping hair color, which backs up the product’s claims.
However, this might be due to the “balanced moisture” the product offers.
The finished look was polished, but we wanted more oomph!
The sea minerals and white willow are supposed to revitalize hair and boost shine.
We rated this shampoo especially high in its degreasing capabilities and volume.
Our scalp did feel hydrated though, rather than itchy or dry.
The product also cleaned the roots well without drying them out.
The shampoo gave some volume and lift to our roots, and the finished look was pretty decent.
It’s a decent shampoo for its price point, but we still have our favorite!
