How to Select the Perfect Shampoo
Finding the perfect shampoo for your hair can feel confusing. The market is flooded with options – from anti-frizz to clarifying, keratin to color-protecting, sulfate-free to organic. But using the wrong shampoo can lead to major issues: dryness, dandruff, hair fall, or even chemical buildup.
As a cosmetologist with 16+ years of experience and the founder of Broveg Pvt. Ltd., I’ve seen how choosing the wrong shampoo can damage hair over time, while the right one can transform hair health in just weeks.
In this blog, I’ll help you:

Understand your hair type & scalp condition

Avoid common shampoo mistakes

Match the right ingredients to your concerns

Understanding the Role of Shampoo
Shampoo is not just for cleaning hair — it also affects:
-
Scalp health
-
Hair pH balance
-
Sebum production
-
Moisture retention
-
Hair texture & strength
A wrong formula can strip natural oils or cause buildup, while the right formula strengthens, hydrates, and protects your strands from within.
Step 1
Know Your Hair Type
Before picking a shampoo, ask yourself:
✅ Is your scalp oily, dry, or balanced?
✅ Is your hair curly, straight, frizzy, chemically treated, or colored?
✅ Are you facing dandruff, hair fall, or dullness?
Hair Types & Shampoo Characteristics
Hair Type | Shampoo Should Be | Broveg Suggests |
---|---|---|
Oily Scalp + Limp Hair | Clarifying, pH-balanced, gentle | Broveg Mild Shampoo 5.5pH |
Dry Scalp + Frizz | Moisturizing, sulfate-free, keratin-rich | Broveg Keratin Shampoo 5.5pH |
Color-Treated Hair | Color-safe, pH-balanced, low sulfate | Broveg Keratin Shampoo |
Dandruff or Itchy Scalp | Antifungal, pH-balanced, gentle exfoliation | (Coming Soon) Broveg Dandruff Control Shampoo |
Hair Fall or Weak Roots | Protein-enriched, lightweight, non-stripping | Broveg Shampoo + Serum Combo |
Step 2
Shampoo pH Level

Most commercial shampoos have a pH of 7.5-9, which is alkaline and harsh on hair cuticles. Healthy scalp pH is between 4.5 and 5.5.
Using high-pH shampoo disrupts the scalp barrier and causes:
-
Frizz
-
Split ends
-
Excess oil or dryness
-
Hair thinning
✅ Broveg pH Promise
All Broveg shampoos are lab-tested to maintain a pH of 5.5 – ideal for Indian hair and scalp, especially in humid or polluted environments.
Common Mistakes in Choosing Shampoo
-
Following Trends: Just because it’s “viral” doesn’t mean it’s right for your hair.
-
Ignoring Scalp Needs: Your scalp health = your hair health.
-
Over-cleansing: Clarifying shampoos used daily = disaster for dry or colored hair.
-
Fragrance Focused: A nice smell doesn’t mean clean or healthy.
-
Too Many Chemicals: Sulfates, parabens, silicones, and artificial dyes often damage hair long-term.
