TL;DR
Yes, it’s better to pack your own toiletries. Travelers report that hotel amenities are usually refilled daily, but the shampoo and conditioner can be poor quality, often as a 2-in-1 product with no separate hair conditioner.
The most recent review says not to rely on the hotel’s shampoo and conditioner: the quality was very poor, so it’s best to bring your own regular hair products.
An earlier traveler noted that bathroom amenities were refilled daily, but the shampoo and conditioner were not very usable and felt low quality. There was no separate hair conditioner, only a combined product.
Another review confirms that for an Egypt beach holiday it’s smart to pack your own toiletries: the hotel product did a poor job washing out salt and seawater, so travelers preferred to use only their own shampoo and conditioner.
