Fear not—I found ’em all.

Let’s get something straight: There’s no one-size-fits-all when it comes to shampoo and conditioner. While, yes, any generic cleanser will probably clean your roots, and that regular ol’ conditioner might moisturize your hair, but if you aren’t using a formula that’s specifically made for your hair type or concerns, you not only missing out on killer-good hair but possibly causing major damage too. But, hey, it’s fine—I’m here for you (and your hair). I went ahead and rounded up the 13 best shampoos and conditioners—of, like, ever—for smoothing flyaways, moisturizing curls, enhancing color, and so much more.

Fact: If you’re looking for the best shampoo for curly hair, you *need* to find a formula that’s super hydrating, since the majority of cleansers are too harsh and drying for your texture. Cue this sulfate-free, vitamin E–infused shampoo that deeply conditions as it cleanses your curls. The result? Tangle-free, bouncy curls that look and feel moisturized AF.

This ultrarich conditioner from DevaCurl is an actual treat for curly hair, thanks to the olive oil and botanical-loaded formula. After you shampoo, work a dollop through your ends, leave on for a few minutes, then rinse and prepare for crazy-soft (and shiny!) texture.

Got damaged, dry-as-hell hair? Prepare to be obsessed with this lightweight, reparative shampoo from Virtue. A cocktail of shine-enhancing hydrolyzed quinoa, hydrating baobab-seed oil, and vitamin C–rich grapefruit extract work to smooth and hydrate even the most pissed-off of strands. 

PSA: If bleach or dye is to blame for your damaged hair, this miracle-working conditioner from Olaplex should be your go-to. In addition to leaving your strands soft and silky, the formula works to repair your hair—regardless of how fried it is—thanks to its keratin-based formula. BTW, Kim Kardashian is a huge fan, if that means anything to you.

Hate that your color dulls super fast? Same. Try swapping out your usual drying shampoo for a sulfate-free cleanser—like this one—that gently washes away buildup without stripping or fading your color.

This conditioner is such a cult classic, there’s a good chance your hairstylist has already used it on your hair post-shampoo. The formula helps lock in your color with goji-berry extract, while musk-rose oil soothes and hydrates your hair.

An itchy, flaky scalp needs special attention. This shampoo and conditioner duo features a blend of three actives (including the superhero dandruff destroyer, pyrithione zinc) that work to gently remove excess oil and dirt from your scalp. P.S.: Even if you don’t have an itchy scalp, you can totally use this shampoo—its scent alone is a good reason to give it a try.

Formulated with tamarind-seed extract—a natural equivalent of hyaluronic acid for your hair—this shampoo smooths flyaways and frizz, along with moisturizing dry ends every time you use it. Translation: Load up on this shampoo if you’re going for a smooth, sleek-as-hell look. 

Hate brushing or combing out your hair after the shower? Welp, this smoothing conditioner is here to help. After you shampoo, gently squish a dollop through your ends and let it sit for three minutes. When you rinse it out, you’ll be left with soft and manageable hair that’s so easy to detangle. 

This genius little jar is pretty much a two-in-one formula: Not only does it cleanse, but it also treats excess oil production on your scalp (thanks to clarifying ingredients like curbicia extract). 

The MVP ingredient in this drugstore conditioner is kaolin: a naturally occurring mineral that zaps excess oil. And unlike the majority of clarifying shampoos and conditioners—which can leave your hair super dry—this one won’t jeopardize your texture.

If you're fighting dry, brittle strands, your hair needs this hydrating shampoo from IGK. A combination of litchi extract and vitamin E make using this formula a super-moisturizing experience. Oh, and it’s safe for color-treated hair too. 

Other than the fact that this conditioner has very pretty packaging (which, like, it really does), its formula is loaded with a handful of hydrating oils (think: morete, rahua, and sacha oils) that not even your dry-AF ends can withstand.
