When I tell you this shampoo changed my life
Ok when I tell you this shampoo changed my life it did. We have really hard water at my house and I've noticed that my fine hair has become unbrushable while wet. I've been trying all kinds of products to soften and moisturize my hair, but with no result. Someone suggested to me that it could be a r...

Turned my hair into a grease pot!
This product was recommended to me by the hair guru at my local Ulta store. I used it for over a month, thought it was fine but nothing great, and then I started noticing that with each wash, my hair was still greasy and oily. I actually spend over 20 minutes drying the same section of my hair wonde...

Perfect for my extensions
I love this shampoo! I use it once a week and it's so gentle on my extensions. I have been looking for a good shampoo to deep clean my scalp especially with the extensions and this one worked so well. Gifted by ouai
A nice shampoo
Hair Type Straight Hair
The OUAI Detox Shampoo has been a nice addition to my routine. The compact size makes it very travel friendly, which I appreciate since I am preparing for a trip and like packing smaller products that still feel high quality. The packaging is sleek with a shiny finish, and the shampoo itself smells really nice. It has a floral scent that is noticeable but not overpowering, though people sensitive to fragrance may want to note that. What drew me to this product is the detox claim. My hair often feels weighed down from styling products, so I like the idea of giving it a reset. The formula is made with apple cider vinegar, which helps exfoliate and remove product buildup, as well as chelating agents to get rid of impurities and hard water deposits. It also contains hydrolyzed keratin, which can soften hair, smooth frizz, and add shine. According to the description, it is designed to cleanse deeply without stripping, while restoring softness and shine. I like that it is meant for a once-a-week deeper clean, and I think it works well for anyone who uses a lot of products, deals with oil buildup, or just wants to refresh their scalp. While the "toxin removal" aspect is hard to measure, I do feel like this would be helpful to clarify and reset the hair so it looks cleaner and feels lighter. Gifted by Ouai.
Good
Hair Type Wavy Hair
I've been using this clarifying shampoo once a week and it has completely revived my hair. The apple cider vinegar really cuts through product buildup and excess oil, while the hydrolyzed keratin keeps my strands soft and smooth — no dryness or frizz. My curls look more defined, my scalp feels clean, and there's a noticeable shine that lasts for days. The fragrance is gorgeous too — a blend of rose, lychee, and musk that makes wash day feel like a little luxury. It's the perfect balance of deep cleanse and gentle care, even for color-treated hair.

My fav clarifying shampoo
Hair Type Straight Hair
I absolutely love this clarifying shampoo! It gives my scalp a really thorough reset and makes my hair feel so much lighter and cleaner. I like that it doesn't dry my hair out—just leaves it soft, refreshed, and shiny. The scent is super nice too, kind of fresh and clean without being overpowering. I only use it once a week, but it makes such a difference in how my hair looks and feels. Gifted by Ouai
