Denorex
Since I wash my hair every week,I always have build-up by the end of the week. So I start out my wash with Denorex shampoo, its really for dandruff but works so well for clarifying. My scalp and hair feels so clean and it has a minty refereshing feeling. But sometimes I may use it every other wash. And then I proceed with a moisturizing shampoo.
Here are the ingredients for Denorex.
cocamidopropyl betaine
glycol distearate
menthol
panthenol
polyquaternium 10
hydroxyethyl cocamide
proplene glycol
purified water
sodium c14-c16 olefin sulfonate
sodium citrate
vitamin e acetate
Releives scaling, itching, flaking of dandruff, seborrheic dermatitis, psoriases

Re: Can anybody suggest a good clarifying shampoo.
Hi MissJ!
I wish I could take credit for this idea,but it came from an old board. I have been doing this for about 3 years now. This method dissolves the product buildup and rinses away clean. And my favorite shampoo does double duty as a clarifying shampoo.

Re: Can anybody suggest a good clarifying shampoo.
On an old thread I read someone asked about using neutralizing shampoo as a clarifier. The theory was that if it removed relaxer could it not be used to remove product build-up. Someone replied yes it could be used as a clarifier. This question didn't get many responses, so I quess I'm asking it again.

I thought neutralizing shampoos just "neutralized" the chemicals in relaxers and brought the pH back to normal. I don't think they clarify.

Hey D-,
That may have been my post. I started using my Motions Neutralizing shampoo, and I feel in love with it (thank God, because this $10 bottle is huge)....so now I use it as a regular shampoo, and I alternate it with the Creme of Nature Moisturing Shampoo. However, I may have to try adding a bit of baking soda once a month, and seeing if that makes any difference.
But in my case, my hair is pretty dry and it doesn't need much clarifying. I think just switching up on my two favorite shampoo is going to do it for me.
I actually posted my inquisitive thread on clarifiers because my scalp felt like it needed to be clarified moreso than my hair. So now, I occassionally use a cotton ball soaked with apple cidar vinegar to cleanse my scalp (by this time, olive oil is already on my hair as a pre-shampoo treatment) and then after 5 minutes, I shampoo. That has worked to get the build-up off my scalp.

I bought the Herbal Essence Clarifying Shampoo from Rite Aid.. They had a sale. But this was my first experience with a clarigying poo... I don't like it. It stripped everything out of my hair and it's taking me a minute to get the moisture back... Not sure how often I'll be using this. But it smells good though.

My favorite clarifying shampoo is Paul Mitchell Tea Tree Shampoo. It tingles my scalp and gets my hair very clean.
what's the difference between a clarifying shampoo and just any other shampoo that has a bunch of sulfates in it? And is one of the indications that you need to clarify is dry hair? I've noticed that lately when I wash my hair with my CON, it isnt as silky as it used to be...

Sassy Girl, here's a bump for you.
Hair Lady,
Shampoos that have these two ingredients:
(a) SLS (SODIUM LAURYL SULFATE);
(a) SLES (SODIUM LAURETH SULFATE).
If you use a clarifying shampoo every day, or any shampoo that has these two ingredients (referred to under a and b)
in them every day, you WILL LOOSE MOISTURE OF YOUR HAIR.
Hope this helps
