Critical reception
Paul Lester from Melody Maker wrote, "We Are Shampoo is very possibly the least emotional record of all time. It is hollow, it is calculated, it is a triumph of artifice over authenticity, and it is very nearly brilliant." Mark Sutherland from NME said, "Because, from the very first Uh-oh in the chart-eating slab of undiluted genius that is "Trouble", We Are Shampoo cavorts with the froth and vigour of only the very finest, most transiently pleasurable pop albums." Mark Frith from Smash Hits commented, "And don't you just know it! The shouting! The screeching guitar! Imagine having to sit through 12 tracks of that! Well, generally it's fab, especially the ultra-catchy "Delicious" and the Mariah and Whitney slag-off, "Dirty Old Love Song" and the ode to getting home after midnight, "Shiny Black Taxi Cab", which contains the greatest line to ever appear in a popular music song: When you throw-up/You feel bad/in a shiny black taxi cab. It goes a bit wrong halfway through the second half but these are no one-hit wonders."
