What is the difference between shampoo classifications? Normal hair, Volume, Breakage, treated hair?

which one is the the most gentle? I see shampoo brands have different shampoos for each like volume, normal hair, etc? which one is the most gentle?What is the difference between shampoo classifications? Normal hair, Volume, Breakage, treated hair?
The differences in shampoo classifications are typically a difference in ingredients. Shampoo for normal hair tends to be a balanced shampoo for hair with no dryness or breakage issues. Volumizing shampoo often contains polymers that temporarily bond to the hair shaft, giving it a plumper and more resilient feel, which aids in styling fine or thin hair. Anti-breakage shampoos typically contain proteins, keratin, and/or ceramides to help strengthen weak, stretchy, and damaged hair. Color treated shampoo often contains UV protectants to minimize color fading, and is formulated gentler to not strip the hair color. Moisturizing shampoo contains conditioning ingredients for hair that is brittle and has very little elasticity (stretch).


The best shampoo for your hair type is the one that fits your hair needs best. The ';gentlest'; shampoos, technically, are labeled pH neutral or gentle, but are often harder to find.What is the difference between shampoo classifications? Normal hair, Volume, Breakage, treated hair?
it depends what kind of hair you have. this is what those things mean.





normal: any hair. just cleans your hair, not specifically made for anything.


volume: for people with very thin flat hair this gives it more bounce and volume


breakage: for people with very dry hair that breaks it helps to make it not do this


treated hair: treated hair is also very dry so this shampoo will keep it hydrated as well keeping the treatment in good shape





if you are looking for gentle shampoo i would suggest kids shampoo it is very gentle. otherwise i dont really understand what you're asking.
Read the back of the shampoo bottles, they explain what hair the shampoo is good for. If you dye your hair - use the one for color treated hair, volume is for if your hair is flat and you want more volume, etc.





If all else fails, use Johnson's Baby Shampoo.
Actually, there's no difference. It's just a marketing trick to make you think you need a special shampoo.
Well, they are all for differnt types of hair. But they most gentle is breakage becuase it helps not to break adn when u break usually you have gentle hair.
