Shampoo recommendations- super fine hair

Looking for a shampoo rec- 20 years of buying my own shampoo and still haven’t found ‘the one’.
I have really fine hair, really fine. My whole head is covered so I have a ‘lot of hair’ but each hair is so fine you can barely seem them if you pulled one out. This lack of density means my hair sits flat to my scalp, no body at all. Hair greats greasy quickly,
I’ve tired OUAI clarifying shampoo, salicylic acid on my scalp etc. Hair feels clean but doesn’t last more than a day/ day and half.
Just want a shampoo that cleans my greasy hair, gives it some volume/body but doesn’t feel stiff, dry etc. my hair gets matted when washing, heard this is common with fine hair. I have balayage for colour so some parts of my hair are blonde with bleach, then other hairs are natural. Pony tail at the tie is about same diameter as 10p. Hair is long, below my bra line.
Anyone got similar hair and have found a shampoo that just works?!
TIA

Windle Lab Fortifying Shampoo & Conditioner gives my fine (and frankly, thinning) hair a bit of oomph.

I like the Aussie volume shampoo and conditioner

My hair is fine and shoulder length, like you I was searching for years. I found Alfaparf Milano last year, I use the Semi Di Lino Diamond (white bottle) shampoo and conditioner. I now use all of their hair products.
I purchase them from Justmylook who often send me discount codes.

Kerastase shampoo and conditioner is outstanding. By far the best I’ve ever used (and I’ve tried so many). There do a specific range for volume. Have a look on lookfantastic as they usually do a discount there.

Moroccanoil Dry Shampoo is great for adding volume at the roots (and getting rid of any greasiness). I swear by the stuff! Again, better than any other dry shampoo I’ve tried (the difference between the Moroccanoil one and something like Batiste is huge).

Manta hair brushes are also great for fine hair. I ‘upgraded’ from my Tangle Teezer for fine hair to a Manta brush and it really helps sort the matting.

Hope this helps! Us fine hair people need to stick together. 😀
