Not Just Any Shampoo

When you're wearing hair extensions, choosing the right shampoo matters. You need something that cleans your scalp and natural hair properly whilst helping to maintain the appearance and manageability of your extensions.

Our Hair Extension Shampoo has been developed with exactly that in mind. Formulated and manufactured in the UK, it combines effective cleansing agents with conditioning ingredients to leave hair feeling fresh, clean and ready for the next step in your aftercare routine.

One of Our Bestsellers

Alongside our Hair Extension Conditioner and Intense Damage Repair Mask, this shampoo is one of the most popular products in the Hair2Love haircare range.

It's a product we've developed specifically with extension wearers in mind, but it's equally suitable for washing natural hair. Whether your extensions are newly fitted or have been worn for several months, a consistent washing routine is an important part of looking after them.

Why We Use ALS

You might notice that our shampoo is free from Sodium Lauryl Sulphate (SLS) and Sodium Laureth Sulphate (SLES), but contains another cleansing ingredient called Ammonium Lauryl Sulphate (ALS).

There's a reason for that.

ALS is a surfactant that helps lift everyday oils, dirt and styling residue from the hair so they can be rinsed away.

It also produces a satisfying lather, making it easier to distribute the shampoo through the hair.

Our shampoo isn't sulphate-free, and we wouldn't describe it as such. Instead, we've chosen a formulation designed to balance effective cleansing with the conditioning needs of hair extension wearers.

Made for Your Aftercare Routine

Good hair extension aftercare doesn't need to be complicated.

Our Shampoo takes care of cleansing, whilst Hair2Love Hair Extension Conditioner helps maintain softness and manageability after washing.

For additional conditioning, our bestselling Intense Damage Repair Mask can be incorporated into your weekly routine.

A little attention to how you wash, brush and style your extensions can make a considerable difference to how they look and feel throughout their wear.

UK Made, Vegan-Friendly & Cruelty-Free

Hair2Love Hair Extension Shampoo is formulated and manufactured in the UK.

It's also vegan-friendly and cruelty-free, as confirmed on our product packaging.

How To Use
How to use

A little goes a long way.

  1. Thoroughly wet your hair with warm water.
  2. Apply a small amount of Hair2Love Hair Extension Shampoo.
  3. Gently massage into the scalp and through the hair, allowing the shampoo to cleanse without excessive rubbing or tangling.
  4. Rinse thoroughly.
  5. Repeat for a second cleanse, then rinse until all shampoo has been removed.

For hair extensions: Wash gently around the attachment points and work down the lengths without scrubbing or bunching the hair together.

Follow with Hair2Love Hair Extension Conditioner, applying from the mid-lengths to the ends and keeping it away from bonds or attachment points.

Effective Cleansing, Thoughtful Conditioning

Our Hair Extension Shampoo combines cleansing and conditioning ingredients to help keep natural hair and extensions feeling clean, soft and manageable.

Ammonium Lauryl Sulphate (ALS)

The main cleansing ingredient, responsible for lifting oils, dirt and everyday product residue from the hair. It also creates the lather that helps distribute shampoo during washing.

Cocamidopropyl Betaine

A secondary cleansing ingredient that works alongside ALS, supporting the shampoo's lather and overall cleansing performance.

Polyquaternium-7

A conditioning polymer that helps improve the feel of the hair, reduce static and make it easier to manage after washing.

Conditioning Ingredients

The formula also contains ingredients designed to support softness and manageability, helping the shampoo do more than simply cleanse.

Free from SLS and SLES. Vegan-friendly and cruelty-free.

FAQs

Please read our FAQs page to find out more.

Can I use Hair2Love haircare on natural hair and hair extensions?

Yes. Our Hair Extension Shampoo cleanses natural hair as well as extensions, while our Conditioner is designed with extension wearers in mind. Follow the directions on each product and keep conditioning products away from extension attachments.

How should I wash and condition my hair extensions?

Wash with your hair upright, gently cleansing the scalp without rubbing or twisting the extensions. After rinsing, apply Conditioner from around 10–15 cm below the bonds or tapes through to the ends, then rinse thoroughly.

How often should I wash hair extensions?

Our general aftercare guidance recommends washing hair extensions no more than twice a week. This helps reduce the wear caused by repeated washing and drying. Follow any different advice given by your extension stylist for your fitting method.

Should I use heat protection on hair extensions?

Yes. Before blow-drying or using heated styling tools, apply a small amount of Hair2Love Thermal Protection Serum to towel-dried or dry hair, concentrating on the mid-lengths and ends. Avoid the roots and extension attachments.

Is Hair2Love Hair Extension Shampoo sulphate-free?

No. It does not contain sodium lauryl sulphate (SLS) or sodium laureth sulphate (SLES), but it does contain ammonium lauryl sulphate (ALS). You can find the full ingredient list on the shampoo product page.
