About this product
Merit has been a Japanese family shampoo for clean scalps and healthy-looking hair since its launch in 1970, and the Regular formulation remains the cornerstone of the range. Developed by KAO with a focus on thorough yet gentle cleansing, Merit lifts sebum, styling residue, and environmental pollutants from both scalp and strands without stripping essential moisture. The light, refreshing lather rinses clean in seconds — leaving no heavy silicone residue — making it especially popular with families looking for a single shampoo that works for everyone from school-age children to adults.
How to use
- Wet hair and scalp thoroughly with warm water
- Dispense a palm-sized amount of shampoo (adjust for hair length and density)
- Lather between palms first, then work into the scalp with fingertip massage motions — avoid nails
- Work lather through the lengths to the ends
- Rinse completely until water runs clear; follow with Merit Conditioner if desired
Ingredients
- Sodium laureth sulfate — primary surfactant that produces a rich, quick-rinsing lather to remove sebum and product buildup
- Cocamidopropyl betaine — mild amphoteric co-surfactant that reduces irritation and improves foam stability
- Glycerin — humectant that draws moisture into the hair cortex and scalp, counteracting the drying effect of cleansing
- Citric acid — pH adjuster that closes the cuticle after washing for smoother, shinier strands
- Licorice extract (dipotassium glycyrrhizate) — plant-derived ingredient
- Fragrance — clean, light floral-fresh scent that dissipates on drying
FAQ
Is Merit suitable for colour-treated or permed hair?
Merit is a gentle daily shampoo; it is generally compatible with treated hair but may gradually affect colour vibrancy with very frequent washing.
How often should I use Merit?
It is formulated for daily use; use as often as needed to keep the scalp clean.
Is Merit safe for children?
Yes — Merit is a popular family shampoo used by adults and school-age children alike; keep away from eyes and rinse immediately if contact occurs.
What is the difference between Regular and other Merit variants?
Regular is the classic balanced formula; other variants target specific concerns such as scalp oil control or extra conditioning.
Can I use Merit without conditioner?
Yes — Merit is designed to leave hair manageable on its own, though pairing with Merit Conditioner gives additional softness.
🇺🇸 For US customers
Across the US, where heat, humidity, and indoor heating all stress the scalp and hair, many shoppers turn to Japanese scalp- and hair-care formulas as a fix, and American scalps contend with an unusual combination of stressors — daily washing (or near-daily) in a seasonal climate shifts, pollution from traffic, and sebum production that runs high in heat — making Merit's thorough-yet-gentle cleanse formula precisely what the American scalp needs.
A gateway product for US shoppers exploring Japanese beauty for the first time. A Japanese family shampoo since its launch in 1970, Merit lifts sebum, styling residue, and environmental pollutants from scalp and strands without stripping essential moisture — a lasting clean that doesn't rebound into extra oiliness within hours, available in 3 sizes.
