Cool girl hair requires skipping a day or two (or three) days of shampooing, plus loads of dry or texturizing spray. While the grit makes for perfectly piece-y waves, the resulting build-up leads to dull strands, cloudy color, and an unhealthy scalp, which is the literal root of most hair issues. You'll need a good detox to dislodge the gunk, so swap out your regular shampoo for a clarifying option once a week. Here are seven to give you fresh start.
7 clarifying shampoos you should try
Consider this lightening shampoo a luxe, healthier-for-hair version of Sun-in. In addition to gradually lifting color, the shampoo removes excess dye to help even out a spotty dye job. Citrus pulp provides a natural deep cleaning action and fights free radicals. Another good-hair-day-sabotaging variable is hard water, which is why this mild cleanser contains an ingredient to remove the metals and minerals your daily shower is depositing on your head, along with a cocktail of naturally purifying ingredients, like Tea Tree Oil, Witch Hazel, and Rosemary Leaf Extract. Think of your hair as a blank canvas for your colorist, or you if you're DIY'ing your dye job. As such, it needs to be completely clean and this build-up removing one is designed just for that while being gentle enough to use post-coloring. Besides ridding your scalp of all the products you've piled on it, this creamy shampoo is infused with a refreshing, microcirculation stimulating eucalyptus oil. Save your weary summer strands with this sulfate-free shampoo that revitalizes, repairs, and restores them with an ultra rich combination of Shea Butter, Quinoa, Sacha Inchi Seed Oil. A shot of foul-tasting apple cider vinegar detoxes your insides and has similarly purifying results on your hair and scalp. But rather than dump a bottle over your head, you can wash with this OG clarifying shampoo.
