Shampoo is a hair and scalp cleanser built to remove oil, product buildup and everyday impurities. Different formulas are designed around specific hair types, and scalp concerns like dandruff, hair fall, dryness or excess oil. Picking a shampoo that actually matches your hair and scalp condition, rather than whatever bottle catches your eye, makes a real difference over time. The UAE climate contains humidity, chlorinated pool water, and hard tap water that affects your scalp and hair. myAster's shampoo range covers everyday cleansing shampoos, anti-dandruff and medicated shampoos, hair fall shampoos, moisturizing formulas for dry or damaged hair, clarifying shampoos for oily scalps, and color-protect or sensitive-scalp options. Explore myAster’s main shampoo categories, the ingredients behind them, and how to select the one that suits your hair.
myAster's shampoo collection spans everyday shampoos, anti-dandruff and medicated shampoos, hair fall shampoos, moisturizing shampoos for dry and damaged hair, clarifying shampoos for oily scalps, and color-protect shampoos for treated hair. It's a full range built to match your specific hair care needs. Here's a closer look at what's on the shelf, grouped by concern:
Shampoos like ACM Novophane Energizing Shampoo, Hask Biotin Boost Thickening Shampoo are formulated to help reduce hair breakage. They generally work by strengthening the hair shaft and supporting a healthier scalp environment, often built around ingredients like caffeine, biotin or keratin.
Dandruff and an itchy, flaking scalp are commonly linked to a yeast called Malassezia. Anti-dandruff shampoos like, Nizoral 2% Anti Dandruff Shampoo and Migliorin Anti Dandruff Shampoo have antifungal ingredients that manage it. A placebo-controlled trial found 2% ketoconazole shampoo was highly effective at clearing scalp seborrhoeic dermatitis and dandruff, and it also helped prevent relapse when used periodically afterwards.
Nourishing shampoos like Garnier Ultra Doux Nurturing Almond Milk Daily Hydrating Shampoo and Alfaparf Semi Di Lino Moisture Nutritive Low Shampoo are usually built around moisture-retaining ingredients such as argan oil, keratin and aloe vera, and they tend to skip the harsher cleansing agents that can strip away natural oils even further.
Clarifying shampoos like Aromatica Rosemary Scalp Scaling Shampoo are designed to remove excess oil and product buildup without over-correcting and drying the scalp out, which can backfire and trigger even more oil production.
Color-treated hair does better with sulphate-free, gentle cleansing formulas like in Ego QV Gentle Hair Shampoo for Dry & Sensitive Scalp. They help the color stay vibrant for longer, while sensitive scalps generally respond better to fragrance-light, mild cleansers that cut down the chance of irritation.

Identify your main concern first, whether dandruff, hair fall, dryness or oiliness, then choose a shampoo formulated with ingredients that target that specific issue.
Ketoconazole shampoo is an antifungal formula commonly used to help manage dandruff and seborrheic dermatitis-related scalp flaking and itching.
Medicated shampoos containing active ingredients like ketoconazole are widely regarded as an effective, well-studied approach to managing dandruff.
Clarifying shampoos are best for oily hair, as they remove excess oil and buildup without over-drying the scalp.
Moisturizing shampoos with argan oil, keratin or aloe vera are commonly used to nourish dry, damaged or chemically treated hair.
This depends on hair type; oily scalps may need more frequent washing, while dry or curly hair often does well with two to three washes weekly.
