HOW TO FIND THE RIGHT AUSSIE SHAMPOO AND CONDITIONER FOR YOUR HAIR TYPE
If you’re ready to switch up your hair routine, or want to find a shampoo and conditioner combo that works for your unique hair type, you’ve come to the right place. With so many hair care products on the shelves, finding the right ones for your hair can be overwhelming. But worry not, mate! Aussie has got your back. Whether you've got bouncy coils, straight strands, or something in between, we've got the goods to help you build the ultimate hair care routine.
Why Your Hair Type Matters
Every head of hair is unique. The products that are good for someone in your friend group or even someone in your family might not bring out the best in your hair–and that’s okay! The key to gorgeous, Aussome hair is choosing products that cater to your specific needs.
How to Tell Your Hair Type
Understanding your hair type based on your curl pattern and texture is the first step to uncovering what your hair truly needs to thrive. Here’s a quick breakdown:
Straight Hair: Easy to manage but prone to oily buildup.
Wavy Hair: Falls somewhere between straight and curly, often needing a balance of moisture and volume.
Curly Hair: Spiraled or looped strands that thrive on hydration.
Coily Hair: Tightly coiled strands that love intense moisture and detangling power.

How to Choose Shampoo
Now that you’ve nailed down your hair type, let’s get to the foundation of any hair care routine–shampoo! Here’s how to pick the right one for your hair type:
- Straight Hair: Look for a gentle shampoo. Aussie’s Total miracle shampoo is perfect for this! If your straight hair is also fine or on the thin side, give it some body without weighing it down with Miracle volume shampoo.
- Wavy Hair: Are flyaways and frizz crashing your wave party? Miracle waves shampoo helps minimize frizz to give your waves the definition they crave. If your wavy hair shows signs of damage from heat tool use, opt for shampoos like Aussie’s Miracle repairer shampoo infused with hydrating aloe.
- Curly Hair: Hydration is your best friend. Try the Miracle curls shampoo to take your curly hair wash routine to the next level. The curl-specific formula is designed to gently cleanse and hydrate thirsty curls without stripping away their natural oils.
- Coily Hair: You’ll want something that cleanses your coils without drying them out. Aussie’s Miracle coils shampoo works wonders for keeping coils hydrated and soft.
How to Choose Conditioner
A good conditioner should address your hair wash needs while adding a touch of softness. While shampoo’s main job is to cleanse, conditioner is there to leave your hair feeling soft and manageable. Here’s what to look for:
- Straight Hair: A lightweight conditioner like the Miracle volume conditioner adds body without weighing down fine strands. If you’re seeing damage or fly aways, guard strands against breakage with a nourishing option like Miracle repairer conditioner.
- Wavy Hair: A texture-perfecting conditioner like the Miracle waves conditioner gives waves the moisture they need while keeping frizz at bay. If you heat style often and notice dry ends, reach for Aussie’s Total miracle 7n1 conditioner to moisturize, strengthen against damage, protect against split ends and more!
- Curly Hair: Gorgeous curls need to be nourished to keep their shape. The Miracle curls conditioner from Aussie delivers moisture and curl definition in one step.
- Coily Hair: Go for a coil-quenching conditioner like Miracle coils hydrating conditioner or a super-rich conditioner like Aussie’s 3 minute miracle moist deep conditioner to take those coils to hydration heaven! The rich, avocado-infused formula delivers a surge of moisture.
Perfect Your Hair Care Routine in 3 Easy Steps
Now that you’ve got the right products, it’s time to build your routine:
