Being released in the shadow of Generation X, Shampoo Planet is considered another Zeitgeist catching novel. It’s depiction of the Global Teen generation has been remarked by many critics as close to Generation X. Yet, the novel suffers from comparison to Generation X. Coupland has claimed that the novel is too contrived. However, the novel has retained its individual sense, becoming a historical artifact of the times that brought about its creation.
