OGX Apple Cider Vinegar Clarifying Shampoo for Oily and Greasy Hair, 385 ml

Product Information

Sulfates often get a bad rap for being harsh on the hair and scalp. Although there is no technical evidence that sulfate-free shampoo formulas are gentler and better for hair, the consumer demand for them remains strong among women with curly, natural, color-treated, and damaged hair.

On top of all that, the aesthetically pleasing bottle with its striking minimalist design will look great in your shower. A familiar drugstore brand with an accessible price point, Aveeno’s product is a genuine all-rounder that can be used by anyone due to its gentle composition. An accompanying conditioner is also available to complete your routine. Authentic Beauty Concept’s Deep Cleansing Shampoo can be used on any hair type and, with its floral scent, it’s a sumptuous choice, perfect for adding a splash of decadence to the mundanity of hair-wash night. It left hair feeling grease-free and uplifted even after a day spent out and about in a pollution-filled city, while its fragrant blend of rose, violet and freesias added an extra touch of luxury. Dandruff, resulting in flaky, dry, and itchy scalp, is always an annoying, embarrassing, and, unfortunately, pretty common skin condition. And whereas standard hair care products do nothing with that, the OGX Tea Tree Clarifying shampoo can work miracles for your scalp. Formulated with a powerful blend of tea tree oil, w itch hazel, and peppermint, it's able to help with such issues as an itchy scalp or eczema.Beautiful hair is something we all want and those who have it usually have to work hard to maintain it. Sometimes, working hard means using multiple products, which's fine if that is what you have to do. The issue here is that these products, even the best ones, leave a residue. This is where clarifying shampoos come in. Decided to use hair dye to colour your hair but instantly regret it? We've all been there. Or are you looking to prep your hair before an exciting trip to the hairdresser? Don't worry, we've got you covered with the best shampoo for stripping hair colour. A good clarifying shampoo can remove any unwanted residue and build-up from things like hard water, chlorine, salt, and styling products," explains Ami King, Signature Colourist at Gielly Green. "You might hear it being called a detox shampoo, too. Stylists can use stronger ones to help remove colour build-up." Can all hair types use a clarifying shampoo, and how often should I use one?

That said, the shampoo seems to strip your hair of everything, and accordingly can leave it a bit too dry once you rinse it out. Therefore, it works best when used 1-2 times per week and in conjunction with a simple conditioner or leave-in conditioner from the brand. After conditioning, your hair will become absolutely clean, beautiful, shiny, and extra-light. In short, yes. Ami warns though that the finer and weaker your hair, the less you should use them. "Clarifying shampoos can be used safely every couple of weeks on average," says Michele Antiga at Gielly Green. "They're great to use more often if you use plenty of styling product or are going swimming, used after to remove salt water or chlorine." Some shampoos with powerful formulas, like certain anti-dandruff shampoos, contain ingredients that are strong enough to strip hair colour. These ingredients such as zinc pyrithione or sulfates can fade hair colour faster. The likes of dyed red hair tend to fade the fastest out of all of the colours, which is why there are shampoos out there made especially to enhance coloured hair, (a bit like shampoo for red hair.) Since apple cider vinegar is good for rebalancing and strengthening the hair, I recommend this shampoo for anyone with greasy hair that has become brittle. If you have dry hair and are starting the Curly Girl Method, this also might be a good shampoo for your final wash. As well as Kukui oil, this shampo contains rosemary leaf extract. Rosemary has been shown in clinical trials to help stimulate hair growth and reduce hair loss. One study from 2015 showed that rosemary leaf extract was just as effective as Minoxidil for treating hair loss, and even more effective at soothing an itchy scalp.In between full shampoos with your OGX shampoo of choice, keep your scalp and hair refreshed with the brand’s cult-favorite dry shampoo. Unlike many dry shampoos out there, this leaves your hair feeling soft and moisturized — not dry and crispy — thanks to the addition of nourishing argan oil. But the lightweight mist will still give your hair plenty of texture and volume, all while sopping up excess oil and imparting your hair with a lovely, light scent. This is also available in a Tea Tree + Mint formula to refresh and soothe itchy scalps; and Biotin + Collagen for added volume.

Key Ingredients This clarifying shampoo is brimming over with goodness too – its ingredients are sustainably sourced, and it’s cruelty-free, PETA-approved, and vegan-friendly, as well as being free from sulphates, parabens and silicones. It’s also rich in Fair Trade Violet Rice Extract, which has been ethically sourced in South East Asia and helps to strip the hair and scalp of grease and dirt. I recommend the OGX Tea Tree Mint Shampoo as the best shampoo for reducing hair loss and promoting growth since peppermint oil has been proven in clinical trials to increase hair growth.
