Are pricier salon shampoos worth it over drugstore options?

Across the verified-purchase ratings we read, several budget-friendly drugstore sets (L'Oreal Elvive, L'Oreal EverPure) post rating averages comparable to far pricier salon brands like Moroccanoil and Pureology. The premium picks often differentiate on scent, sulfate-free formulation, and concentration. Whether that justifies the price depends on your hair type and personal preference.
