Whether you are looking for Wella shampoo, conditioner or professional hair styling, the product ranges differ in more than just names such as Hydrate, LuxeOil or Color Save. Your hair type, scalp, desired conditioning effect, pack size and intended use are all important. If you focus solely on terms such as “Repair”, “Volume” or “Extra Strong”, you can easily end up buying a product that does not suit your needs in everyday use.
Dry, coloured, fine or bleached hair does not automatically require the same cleansing routine. A rich Wella LuxeOil shampoo may be appealing for stressed hair, while fine hair can quickly feel weighed down by too many conditioning ingredients. Conversely, a volumising product alone may not provide the desired level of conditioning for very dry hair.
Shampoo is mainly applied to the scalp, whereas conditioner is used primarily through the lengths and ends. A product for sensitive scalps is therefore not automatically the right choice for dry ends. If you have visible dandruff, persistent itching or irritated skin, the cause should be assessed medically. Cosmetics are not a substitute for dermatological advice.
A volumising hairspray and a strongly fixing EIMI hairspray serve different purposes. The fill size is also relevant: 200 to 300 ml is suitable for trying a product or for occasional use, while 500 to 1,000 ml can be more economical for frequent users and salons. Aerosols also require safe storage and use.
Start by identifying your main requirement:
Read the ingredients list carefully, especially if you have sensitive skin or known allergies. Fragrances such as Limonene and Linalool, as well as certain preservatives, may be relevant for some people. Stop using a product if irritation occurs. Correct dosage is also important for daily haircare: using more shampoo or styling product does not automatically produce better results.
For hairspray and styling mousse, hold level, spray distance and formulation are practical selection criteria. For example, EIMI Mistify Me Strong is sprayed from approximately arm’s length onto dry, styled hair. Aerosols are flammable and must not be stored above 50 °C or used near heat, sparks or naked flames. Salons should also consider product consumption, pack size and controlled dispensing.

We have put together a complete, regularly updated list of products that fully meet these strict selection criteria and the safety regulations applicable in the EU.
According to the product information, Wella Hydrate and Wella LuxeOil may be suitable for dry or stressed hair. The choice depends on whether your priority is moisture or an oil- and keratin-based conditioning formula. If you have fine hair, use the richer option sparingly.
The packaging, batch number and the best-before or use-by date stated there are decisive. Unopened products should be stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Once opened, follow the information on the packaging.
Wella EIMI is aimed more towards professional hair styling and offers different hold levels depending on the product, such as Mistify Me Strong or Super Set Extra Strong. Wellaflex also includes products for hold, volume and styling mousse. When choosing, consider the hold level, spray format, fragrance, pack size and the desired movement of your hairstyle.
