Clarifying shampoos are taking the hair and beauty community by storm! There is an abundance of these shampoos available, so let’s start by exploring the definition of clarifying shampoo. We’ll also discuss the benefits of using this product.

What is a Clarifying Shampoo?
Product build up and environment can affect the look and feel of your natural hair. Product build up includes the use of shampoos and conditioners that contain parabens and silicones which coat the hair to make it appear shiny, as well as styling pomades and hair spray. Environmental factors include pollution, cigarette smoke and dust.
Every once in a while, it's recommended to bring your hair back to it's natural state by providing an intense clean. This can be achieved with a clarifying shampoo! A clarifying shampoo for product build up will get your hair and scalp free of residue and buildup, so your hair becomes silky-smooth and shiny again.

Benefits of a Clarifying Shampoo
#1: Intense Clean
A Sulphate free clarifying shampoo can provide an intense clean to hair that has oil and product built up throughout. Bear in mind that frequent use of such shampoos may dry out your hair, therefore we suggest using it once every 1-2 weeks.
#2: Pre-treatment step
Using a clarifying shampoo as a step before a deep conditioning mask will allow your hair to absorb the treatment in the most effective way as it will clear away any product build up or residue.
#3: Volume Booster
By removing grease and product build up from your hair, it will be lighter and appear more voluminous. This is great for people with naturally oily hair who want to achieve more volume.

Please note: Clarifying shampoos may be beneficial to your natural hair when used occasionally. If your hair is colour treated we would suggest a colour friendly shampoo as it may fade the colour much quicker. We always recommend washing hair extensions only when needed with a sulphate free shampoo and conditioner.
