1. Garnier Ultimate Blends Almond Milk Normal Hair Shampoo

"Normal hair" is a very old term, but this shampoo works well if you wash your hair every day and want to clean your oily skin without drying out your hair.

2. ORS Olive Oil Creamy Aloe Shampoo

Aloe vera and panthenol in this recipe keep Afro-textured hair from getting dry, which can happen when you use shampoo. It's not quite a cleaning cream, but it's pretty smooth for a shampoo.

3. Monday Haircare Smooth Shampoo

I really enjoy this group of cleaning items. The vegan recipes are very easy to follow. This one uses vitamin E and coconut oil to smooth hair.

4. Noughty To The Rescue Shampoo

Since Noughty products don't contain silicones or sulfates, you can be sure that the soft feeling your hair has after washing is due to the ingredients, not a mask that makes it look like silk.

5. Cantu Shea Butter for Natural Hair Sulfate-Free Cleansing Cream Shampoo

The first thing is that this shampoo smells great if you like sweet scents like cocktails. Even though it's called a cleaning cream, I think it's more like a rich, thick shampoo.

6. The Ordinary 4% Sulphate Cleanser for Body and Hair

Like its skin care products, The Ordinary's hair care is very easy to use and works well. This has a mild amount of SLS in it, so it's great for washing roots that are oily a few times a week or cleaning wavy or Afro hair.

7. OGX Renewing + Argan Oil of Morocco Shampoo

Argan oil is known to help hair shine and feel soft, and both this shampoo and the conditioner that goes with it have a good amount of it.

8. John Frieda Vibrant Shine Clear Shine Shampoo

When it comes to high street hair care brands, John Frieda is one of the few that really talks about color. I don't believe this shampoo really lights up hair from the inside out, but it does clean color-treated hair.
