What are clarifing shampoo are you using?

[Lilmama1011]

I decided in my own little brain that a kids swimmer's shampoo would be a great gentle clarifying shampoo.

What do you think?

i always think that stuff made for babies are expected to be gentle LadyRaider

Giovanni 50:50. Cleanses my hair without stripping it.

thats what i was leaning towards but might want to try that VO5 kiwi just because its so cheap, but then again i'm scared because it will dread my hair up lol greenandchic

 

[Angelicus]

and these cheapies don't strip?! Angelicus

I always pre-poo with an oil and do a massage before I clarify. That may have something to do with it. My hair is never dry. Always feels great even before deep conditioning.

 

[divachyk]

with out you diluting it, did it strip your hair divachyk

Yes Lilmama1011, all cleansing shampoos strip my hair and make it tangly. I've tried a range of shampoos with the same result. I now dilute to save myself the hassle.

I use circle of friends swimmers shampoo. Its great. Gentle and very cleansing. I use it every wash on my sons locs

I really dont mind having my hair stripped by shampoo so I use neutrogena anti residue to clarify.

Lilmama1011, I've tried Quantum (stripped), Kenra Clarifying (stripped), ORS Aloe (stripped) to just name a few. I like HV Amala Deep because it's handmade although I must dilute it as well. A great cleanser that's a step down from clarifying that gets the hair nice & clean without stripping is HV Amala Cream Rinse. It's more of a co-cleanse. I do not dilute that one. Perfect, soft hair every time. I only use Amala Deep when I really need a deep cleansing. ETA: Hairitage Hydration's Dark Honey is a great cleanser that I don't dilute. I feel in order of cleansing between the 3 --- Amala Deep (diluted), HH Dark Honey (not diluted), HV Amala Cream (not diluted).

thanks so much, that was very helpful

anyone use Naturelle Grow lemon & Mint Detoxifying Cleansing conditioner?

 

[Angelicus]

I use clarifying shampoo to get all the crap out. Yes my hair feels a little rough (but never dry... I'm rinsing well with water, sometimes even prepping the DC by using a moisturizing shampoo). I make my deep conditioner do all the softening work, to be honest. It actually doesn't matter what clarifying shampoo I use... if my deep conditioner is garbage, my whole regimen falls apart. I hope that makes sense.

 

[myronnie]

Right now I use Suave Daily Clarifying because it's cheap. It dries my hair a bit though.

I use to use ORS Creamy Aloe and I loved it but it's a bit pricey.

 

[EnExitStageLeft]

[Lilmama1011]

[Poohbear]

I use Suave clarifying. Works great for me.

Same here. Plus it's cheap too!

 

[greenandchic]

thats what i was leaning towards but might want to try that VO5 kiwi just because its so cheap, but then again i'm scared because it will dread my hair up lol greenandchic

I only use it maybe once a month so my bottle lasts for about a year. I avoid sulfates for the most part.

ok, i only clarify only once a month as well

 

[Lilmama1011]

I'm leaning towards the VO5 kiwi, giovanni 50/50, Ion hardwater shampoo, and ORS Aloe(I never knew that clarified hair before, i think i used that a while back....)

 

[Kindheart]

ORS Creamy Aloe.I hate the smell but it does the job.

Lilmama1011 Hi! If you just apply on the roots & let the suds glid down no issues..When I wash with it,I use my rinse-out & still no issues...Some use a lot & get tangles,never happen to me.

Happy Hair Growing!
