Tropes about Shampoo:
- Abhorrent Admirer:
- Shampoo no like Mousse! Shampoo no deny he love Shampoo too-too much, but Shampoo never like him back; him confusing other things for Shampoo all time because he too stupid-proud to wear glasses, and insult Shampoo by no respect her. Him blaming Ranma for Shampoo no loving him not help, either.
- Sometimes...Shampoo worry that Ranma not like her back. Shampoo love Ranma too-too much, but no matter how Shampoo try, Ranma always so cold to Shampoo. So Shampoo trick him into dates, or try use Love Potion on him, just to make Ranma admit he love Shampoo too.
- The Ace: Shampoo champion warrior of village, be strongest of all womans what seek Ranma's hand, but also have many other skills — Shampoo good at all traditional wifely duties, too.
- Accidental Marriage: Shampoo know that Ranma not intending to propose to Shampoo. But Chinese Amazon law be absolute; once he beat Shampoo, we be married. Ranma just need to accept that.
- Action Girl: Shampoo trained in martial arts techniques of Amazons since birth.
- Adaptational Nice Guy: Shampoo always nice! But... anime show Shampoo in much more positive light. Shampoo not so casual about threaten enemies with death there, and strength of Shampoo's love for Ranma is much more on show.
- All Amazons Want Hercules: My village say that women must marry men who beat them in battle. Ranma beat Shampoo — once before village as girl, then once by accident as boy — so Shampoo engaged to Ranma.
- Anime Chinese Girl: Shampoo is too-too cute Chinese girl from remote mountain village of Nyuchiezu, come to Japan with marriage on mind and set up Chinese restaurant to prove can provide for future husband.
- Animorphism: Shampoo turn into cat when soaked with cold water.
- Aren't You Going to Ravish Me?: Shampoo make no secret that Shampoo love Ranma and would give him body in heartbeat... but Ranma too-too shy, always reject Shampoo when she flirt.
- Arrogant Kung-Fu Guy: Shampoo is strongest martial artist of all Ranma supposed girlfriends! If Akane no want admit is weakling who not train right, or Ukyo and Kodachi no want admit they practice silly joke styles, that their problem, not Shampoo's!
- Aw, Look! They Really Do Love Each Other: Stupid peoples like Mousse believe Shampoo only chasing Ranma because Shampoo required to be village law. But Shampoo love Ranma, law or no!
- When first tricked that girl-type Ranma is "real" Ranma and boy-type Ranma is "fake", Shampoo run away crying rather than kill Ranma. Anime make this clearer, as Shampoo genuinely overpower Ranma with power of rage in that moment.
- Shampoo choose to help Ranma beat Great-Grandmother for Phoenix Pill because no could stand to see Ranma hurt no more.
- In anime, when stupid Akane try to fight Dojo Destroyer and Ranma be too worried about her to concentrate on date, Shampoo offer to give Ranma Instant Nanniichuan and let him go save her if he only give Shampoo kiss first. Despite Ranma be terrible date, Shampoo still ultimately give him Instant Nanniichuan, because at least he make attempt.
- Shampoo give little sisters Ling-Ling and Lung-Lung Kiss of Death when they no stop trying to kill Ranma.
- When placed under Reversal Jewel, Shampoo change from loving Ranma to hating Ranma, which prove Shampoo motivated by love.

- Best Her to Bed Her: As Chinese Amazon woman, Shampoo honor-bound by tribal law to marry any man who best Shampoo in combat. Shampoo too-too lucky that man is Ranma, who not only strong, but also cute and nice too.
- Betty and Veronica: Shampoo no understand why Ranma never look at Shampoo, only look at stupid Akane! Akane is cute enough, but Shampoo much more beautiful, and Akane is stupid tsundere type — always act like she hate Ranma, always cover up when she hint she like him. Shampoo no play stupid games; Shampoo love Ranma, tell Ranma this, and offer Ranma Shampoo's body... so why he no accept?!
- Beware the Silly Ones: Many peoples think Shampoo no threat because she look cute and no talk Japanese so good. Shampoo think they stupid ones for underestimate woman of Amazons tribe! Shampoo strong enough to tear through concrete, faster than untrained eye can follow, and trained to be ruthless in battle. When stupid Akane accept Shampoo's challenge when we first fight, only reason she live is because Shampoo no want kill her. When Pink and Link try for revenge, Shampoo beat them senseless.
- BFS: Shampoo not use it often, but Shampoo trained in use of dao — long, single-edged Chinese sword. Shampoo carry one easily as long as Shampoo is tall. Smart peoples take note that Shampoo swing it with one hand...
- Big Damn Heroes: Shampoo not often get chance to help Ranma, but when she can, she always give all she can to help! When Mousse return with cursed water from Yazunichuan and trick Ranma with stupid Akane as bait, Shampoo rescue Ranma before he get cursed again.
- Animated Adaptation give Shampoo more chances do this. Shampoo save Ranma (and also stupid Lychee) from being chopped up by Monlon's Razor Floss, help defeat evil ghostly girl-type Ranma made by stupid Happosai, distract giant thug Kin'nee from killing Ranma, and even save Akane from fatal fall during battle with giant phoenix.
- Blue-and-Orange Morality: Some stupid peoples say Shampoo have no morals. Shampoo have plenty morals! Shampoo just adherent to code of honor of Chinese Amazon tribe. No is Shampoo's fault that stupid Japanese no understand the rules that Shampoo must obey. Law say Shampoo marry Ranma, and punish Shampoo if she no do — what so hard understand about that?!
- The Bully: You be talking to stupid Pink and Link again? Yes, Shampoo smack them 100 times each whenever Shampoo see them — but they start it first! If Pink not poison Shampoo just to try out new Mandrake poisoning technique, then this never happen! ...Okay, maybe Shampoo no should have smacked Link for healing Shampoo, but how Shampoo know they identical twins?! Then they attack Shampoo for hit Link — Shampoo only defend self!
- But Not Too Evil: Who you calling evil?! Shampoo admit, Shampoo maybe do some not-nice things to make Ranma love Shampoo back. Love Potion no is something Shampoo like to mess with. But Shampoo just want Ranma to admit he love Shampoo back! Is that so wrong?! As for "obstacles is for killing"... despite Shampoo say that, Shampoo not really want kill anybody. Shampoo spare Akane for reason when first we fight... even if that come back to bite Shampoo in butt...
- Car Fu: In manga, Shampoo fond of hitting people with bike.

- Contrived Coincidence: ...Now Shampoo think about it, how in 108 hells Shampoo never see Ranma turn back into boy-type during time Shampoo chase Ranma around China?! How is it Shampoo not find out about boy-type Ranma until after he get back to Japan and spend weeks living with Akane, letting stupid Tendo girl dig claws into him? If Shampoo only find out about Ranma being boy sooner, Shampoo could have called off Kiss of Death sooner... with no Akane in way then, maybe Ranma like Shampoo better...
- Corrupted Character Copy: There is Oni girl in Tomobiki called Lum that very similar to Shampoo. We both exotic foreign cuties who fall in love with man who get engaged to us by accident. But people say Lum much more patient and nice-nice than Shampoo... hah! Shampoo like see how nice she be if she have to deal with stupid peoples trying to tear man she loved from her, instead of Ataru being stupid Harem Seeker who no want accept they married! Lum softie compared to Shampoo, though.
- Cursed with Awesome: Shampoo no go that far, but Shampoo have to admit, from where Shampoo stand, cat curse is not worst possible curse.

Shampoo still want to be cured, but can live with cure until then.
- Cute Bruiser: Shampoo cute, perky, and strong.

Shampoo not intentionally get into that mess, but no mind having Ranma saving her for once! ...Even if Shampoo not realize Shampoo really in danger until start turning into cat with no cold water. Stupid Mousse. Stupid Akane. Stupid Genma for make airen Ranma scared of cats...
- When Pink and Link capture Shampoo, Shampoo easily break free. Then they say that they already send challenge to airen to come rescue Shampoo, so Shampoo decide it bad to waste chance to have Ranma saving Shampoo for once over need beat up stupid twins. One of happiest moments in Shampoo life...
- Determinator: Shampoo never give up! Shampoo determined to make Ranma fall in love with me!
- Disappointed in You: Mousse is just walking disappointment.
