Nice product
I have fine wavy hair that has a few ringlets here and there, I also color my hair often to color gray. I was looking for something to use in between shampoo days so I don't strip my hair color/ moisture. I have my hair pulled back in a bun with lots of gel and hairspray during the week. I don't min...

Changed Formula
I've used Buildup Buster for years and it was the best for clarifying my curly hair without stripping it.

The Build Up Buster cleans my scalp and hair really well. I am transitioning from relaxed to natural and both textures like this product. My hair wasn't too dry after use.

Great at really deeply cleaning my scalp and left me feeling fresh all day long. I guess I'm just not much of a treatment person so it's not something I reach for all that often. Would be better for someone with an oiler scalp or someone who perhaps uses more product than I do. Great product just maybe not for me!
So fresh and clean!

Doesn't NOT work

This shampoo didn't not work, but I don't think I have too much build up so it is difficult to say it does work also. I live in Miami so unfortunately, curls are destroyed by humidity here. I can confirm this made my hair squeaky clean though and similar to many detox shampoos, it doesn't create a large/frothy/soapy lather
