Why is it masculine?
Shampoo is masculine in Italian (lo shampoo) because it's a loanword from English that was borrowed in the 20th century, and Italian typically assigns masculine gender to foreign words that don't clearly fit feminine patterns. The word itself derives from Hindi "chāmpnā" (to press or knead), so there's no Latin root influencing its gender in Italian.
