Can anybody suggest a good clarifying shampoo...

[MissJ]

for me and the location I can find it, please?

 

[Allandra]

I use Giovanni Tea Tree Triple Treat Shampoo. It works well at clarifying my hair and scalp. I purchased it from The Vitamin Shoppe.

<font color="purple"> My favorites are L'anza deep cleansing shampoo because it doesn't leave my hair feeling stripped and Frederic Fekkai's Apple Cider rinse which makes my hair so soft and detangled. </font>

I use Elucence Volume Clarifying Shampoo. It has Sodium Myreth Sulfate in it (according to the bottle it's derived from coconut oil). It leaves my hair soft and clean feeling (not stripped). A little goes a long way since it's so concentrated. You can find it at pleasantimage.com.

pantene (of course

), it does the job and isn't too expensive.

I recommend Dax Vegetable Oil shampoo which is a gentle shampoo and really cleans the hair thoroughly. You can find this anywhere usually.

i LOVE the Elasta QP Bodiphying Shampoo! i hadn't owned a clarifying shampoo before this one. a sample of it came with something else i bought. i'm hooked! it doesn't strip your hair, and it's very reasonably priced (like $2.99 a bottle).

Thank you all so much for the suggestions!

Aloe Rid Gentle Clarifying Shampoo by Nexxus is my top choice.

It's the most gentle clarifying shampoo I've used and it doesn't contain any harsh ingredients.

I second the rec. for Lanza Deep Cleansing. It really clarifies without stripping. Love it

This is a question for all who use clarifying shampoos-

When you use it do you follow it with your moisturizing shampoo or follow it with your conditioner?

TIA

Sebastian Laminates Shampoo(cleansing polish)

 

[jazzyfunknastee]

When you use it do you follow it with your moisturizing shampoo or follow it with your conditioner?

Depends on how I feel. Usually I go straight to the conditioner.

 

[Paris Belle]

I usually only use it for the first wash and then follow with my normal (moisturizing) shampoo.

However if you really need a deep clarifying shampoo to get all of the dirt or grime out, you may want to use it more than once and then follow it with your conditioner or normal shampoo. It's really up to you.

 

[adrienne0914]

i usually always follow up with the Nizoral, and occasionally with the moisturizing shampoo then the Nizoral. it depends on how much time i have to work with.

 

[CynamonKis]

I like the ION Clarifying Shampoo because it isn't as harsh as I'd imagine a clarifying shampoo to be...

 

[OnlyChild]

How do you know when you need to use a clarifying shampoo?

 

[brownrelaxedhair]

As a rule of thumb I like to use it approx once a month.

It depends though. If you know you've used alot of stuff on your hair recently, oils,gels, whatever then that's a good time to use it. Afterwards you know it worked because your hair should look and feel lighter and 'cleaner' It makes your normal conditioners more effective too I've noticed. (At least when I use the clarifying poo I mentioned).

 

[Allandra]

I use my clarifying shampoo once a month.

Fantasia IC Tea Tree Shampoo is a good one. I've used it after taking down braids. Most of the time I use it to wash the combs and brushes.

Keracare 1st Lather is not so bad.. Clarifying but Gentle.

Mostly in Salons

Has anyone tried Paul Mitchel's Shampoo One?

Re: Can anybody suggest a good clarifying shampoo.

On the subject of clarifying shampoos I still use a tip I learned from one of the old hair boards. I simply add baking soda to my favorite shampoo. It cuts product residue from my hair, leaves it fresh and avoids me having to buy a seperate shampoo to use for clarifying.

Re: Can anybody suggest a good clarifying shampoo.

fletgee, that's a cool suggestion. You wouldn't happen to go bald after that, would you? lol How long have you been doing that, and does it make your hair feel icky afterward?
