Hair Type Wavy Hair
I've been using this OUAI product for a bit now and I'm genuinely obsessed. My hair feels insanely refreshed and clean after every use, especially when I have a lot of product buildup in my hair. It leaves my scalp feeling super clarified without making my hair feel stripped or dry. I've even had my mom try it and now she keeps reaching for it too.
