In the same way self-diagnosing yourself with a disorder can lead to mayhem, trying to fix your hair problems without first consulting an expert (or at least doing a ton of research on your own) can create more hair issues than you’ve already got.
For example, “a person who wants volume may just need an oil-balancing shampoo or an exfoliating shampoo to help give proper bounce and lift,” and not a volumizing product, explained Farel.
On that same note, just because a product says it’ll preserve your color — and you just dyed your hair a new gorgeous hue — doesn’t mean you should lather up with it. Silvestera explained that these color support shampoos and conditioners can “compromise the tone that you left with from the salon.”
