How do I choose the right shampoo and conditioner?

Choose shampoo for your scalp and conditioner for your lengths and ends.

Your scalp type decides how you cleanse. Your hair's texture and condition decide how you condition.

• Oily scalp: a lightweight shampoo used as often as you need. A clarifying shampoo once in a while removes buildup. Learn more in clarifying shampoo 101.
• Dry or curly hair: moisturizing formulas, often sulfate-free. Read about the benefits of sulfate-free shampoo.
• Fine hair: volumizing formulas, with a light conditioner on the ends only.
• Color-treated hair: color-safe formulas help your shade last. Find out how to keep hair color from fading.

Does Ulta Beauty sell at-home hair color?

Yes. You'll find everything from all-over color to quick root touch-ups.

• All-over color: shop hair color for a new shade or a refresh.
• Root touch-up: root touch-up sprays, powders and kits cover regrowth between colorings.
• Bright shades: trend color covers pastels and bold tones.
• Lightening: hair color and bleach kits help you go lighter.

Always follow the package directions, including any allergy or strand test. Deciding between doing it yourself and seeing a stylist? Compare at-home vs. salon hair color.

What is hair gloss?

A hair gloss is a semi-permanent treatment that adds shine.

Clear glosses add shine only. Tinted glosses also add a sheer wash of color that can tone or refresh your shade. Results fade gradually with washing, so many people use a gloss between colorings. Shop hair gloss and shine products or read more about what hair gloss is.

Do I need a heat protectant before styling?

Yes. Use a heat protectant every time you style with heat.

A heat protectant helps shield your hair from hot tools.

• Apply it first: mist or smooth it through damp or dry hair before you blow-dry, curl or flat iron.
• Cover every section: work it from the middle of your hair to the ends, where hair is most fragile.
• Dry before you iron: let your hair dry completely before using a flat iron.
• Turn it down: use the lowest heat setting that still styles your hair.
