Identify your hair type. Is it oily? Normal? Consult your hairdresser if necessary.
Step2
Feel lucky if you have normal hair. Choose a shampoo that is made specifically for normal hair, and make sure it's meant for daily or every-other-day washes.
Step3
Choose a gentle shampoo that is made specifically for oily hair and/or for daily use, if your hair gets greasy. Make sure it has ingredients like tea tree oil, sage oil and chamomile.
Step4
Opt for a moisturizing shampoo for curly hair, and a protein-based shampoo for kinky hair.
Step5
Read the label on a protein-based shampoo and make sure that protein is listed as one of the first ingredients, followed by shea butter, glycerin, sulfur or carotene.
Step6
Use a color-safe shampoo and conditioner every day for hair that's been dyed, bleached or highlighted.
Tips & Warnings
Avoid conditioning shampoos if you have oily hair.

Use the correct amount of shampoo (if you have short hair, as little as possible if you have long hair at least a coin size should do). Use conditioner every day and leave on for 2 to 3 minutes after shampooing.

All shampoo has a different types of ingredients. The perfect shampoo is Cream Silk Black, because it contains the most vitamins with henna treatment and leaves hair soft, smooth and manageable. For me this is the only shampoo I use.
Take your favorite body lotion and put a dime drop amount in your palm and rub it though your hair. Be sure to get the ends. Also be sure the body lotion has a nice smell to it, like apple, strawberry or mango smell. Now blow dry hair fully. Once fully dry your hair should have a slight scent of the lotion you used. I don't recommend doing this every day, just once a week or once a month. The lotion can cause the scalp to itch.
When I do this, I use the 'Breath Delight Daily vitamin body lotion' 'uplifting tamarind nectar" Its a big bottle and available at Bath&Body Works. Be sure when you choose the lotion it has a nice smell to it. I think the best smell is a fruit smelling lotion.

Don't use the same shampoo all the time. Mix it up. After you run out of one bottle, buy a different kind. Your hair can become immune to the benefits of the same shampoo over time.

on 8/8/2006 The best way to maintain perfect shiny hair is to do a lemon juice rinse. Use this at least once a month.
