2-in-1 Everyday Shampoo

Cheap and convenient, but a harsh sulfate base and silicone crutch hold it back.

What we like

  • Very affordable per ounce
  • Big lather most people expect
  • Detangles thanks to silicones

What to watch

  • Sodium lauryl sulfate is stripping over time
  • Conditioning is mostly silicone slip, not real repair
  • Heavy synthetic fragrance

Key ingredients

Sodium Lauryl SulfateDimethiconeFragrance (Parfum)

The classic budget 2-in-1. It cleans and gives instant slip, but that slip is a silicone coating rather than genuine conditioning, and the SLS base can leave hair dry and brittle with daily use. Fine in a pinch; not a long-term routine.
