We can't stop the sun from shining hard this summer, but we can use products to avoid smelling like sweat and pollution. We don't mean spraying your hair with perfume, though, because while that sounds easy, perfume can actually irritate or dry out your scalp! Instead, we suggest a fresh-smelling shampoo to keep you feeling fresh-off-the-shower.
Best Smelling Shampoos
Instead of spritzing alcohol-laden perfume on your hair, keep your locks' freshness in check with a scented shampoo that has your fragrance of choice. Choose from our curated summer-worthy product picks below!
1. The Body Shop Shea Butter Shampoo
This shea butter-infused shampoo doesn't just moisturize dry hair and give you that comforting shea scent the brand is known for. The Body Shop uses Community Trade shea butter to make it, paying for the ingredient at fair price to support the livelihood of Ghanaian communities.

2. Kérastase Discipline Oléo-Relax Shampoo
You can always count on Kérastase to make your hair smell like you just stepped out of the salon. That said, the Oléo-Relax does more than that, helping control frizz and protect your hair from the heat and humidity. It also softens your strands with shorea and palm oils, so you won't need to apply a hair serum after.

3. Aveda Rosemary Mint Purifying Shampoo
Nothing beats a minty fresh fragrance for the warmer temps, and that's exactly what this purifying shampoo from Aveda will give you. It also uses micelles (yes, like the ones in your micellar water) and white vinegar to achieve that squeaky clean feel while maintaining your hair's natural shine and bounce.
