    Shampoo is a hair care product designed to clean the scalp and hair by removing dirt, oil, and other impurities. It typically contains surfactants, which are cleansing agents that help to emulsify and wash away these substances. Some shampoos also include additional ingredients like conditioners, vitamins, and botanical extracts to provide specific benefits such as moisturizing, strengthening, or treating dandruff.
