Sulfate-free shampoo is shampoo without traditional sulfates such as Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS) and Sodium Laureth Sulfate (SLES). Sulfates are effective washing active ingredients, but some prefer a shampoo based on other cleansing ingredients, especially if hair tends to feel dry or rough after washing.
Shampoo without sulfates is popular for dry, curly and wavy hair, where a gentle cleanse is often desired. It can also be relevant to colored or chemically treated hair. However, sulfate-free does not automatically mean that a shampoo is moisturizing, perfume-free or suitable for sensitive scalps - it depends on the overall formulation of the product.
A sulfate-free shampoo may foam differently or less than a traditional shampoo, but the amount of foam does not necessarily tell how effectively the hair is cleaned. If you use a lot of wax, clay, pomade or other styling products, however, a more deeply cleansing hair wash may be needed if necessary.
