How to get rid of product buildup in your hair

A clarifying shampoo is a hair cleanser that cleans deeper than a regular shampoo. Clarifying shampoos are often called “detoxifying” shampoos, or “ purifying” shampoos, and by using them, you can get a fresh start for cleaner, healthier hair. Many clarifying shampoos contain special ingredients that help to lift dirt and debris from the hair so that you can rinse it away.

Normal shampoos cleanse your hair, too, but they aren’t designed to deep-clean your hair. Instead, they clean your hair while also depositing conditioners and other ingredients. These shampoos work well for your everyday routine, but occasionally deep cleaning your hair can help to remove the build-up and give you a fresh start in your hair care routine.

If you have noticed that your conditioning and styling products don’t seem as effective, or if you have noticed that your hair seems dry and stiff, you may need to use a clarifying shampoo. When your hair has product build-up, your normal products can’t penetrate your hair strand to work effectively.

When you use products like hair gels, they tend to create product build-up over time. The tap water from the faucet can also lead to mineral deposit that cause dry, hard hair. Thankfully, clarifying shampoos help to deep cleanse your hair.

You can also use a clarifying shampoo before you do a deep conditioning treatment or hair mask. A clarifying shampoo is a great way to prepare your hair for a deep conditioning treatment. By removing any product build up, dirt, or mineral deposits, the conditioning treatment can penetrate the hair strands better.

Even if you haven’t yet noticed any hair care issues, it’s good to incorporate a clarifying shampoo into your hair care regimen to use on occasion to keep your hair thoroughly cleansed and refreshed. After you use a clarifying shampoo, you may notice that your hair is bouncier, feels lighter, and that your scalp is cleaner.

It’s easy to use a clarifying shampoo. Thoroughly wet your hair as you normally would. Next, take a small amount of the clarifying shampoo and apply it to your scalp and hair, working the product in and allowing it to loosen up the dirt and debris from your hair. Lastly, rinse thoroughly.
