If you've been eyeing the Ouai Detox Shampoo, here's my honest take after receiving complimentary from ouai & putting it to the test. It definitely delivers on that deep clean moment.

If you use dry shampoo or a lot of styling products, this is gifted by ouai shampoo is 100% worth trying. A little goes a long way, it lathers beautifully, and my hair always feels softer, shinier, and lighter after using it. I only use it about once a week as a reset, and it's made such a difference in keeping my scalp feeling fresh.
Love this shampoo
My oily hair does great with this shampoo. It is able to really break down the oils and give me a great clean. It is color safe and I've never had an issue with that. I find I can usually get it on sale at some point in the year at Ulta. This is my go to clarifying shampoo

Super stripping
I bought this product in hopes it woild help clarify. Well.. it does but it leaves my (relaxed) hair super dry. I dont like the feel of my hair after rinsing this out. Although I bought the smallest size, its pricey. I would not recommend this product, too drying.
A must have

My hair looks instantly shinier, bouncier, and smells amazing. It is strong, so just make sure to use a good conditioner afterward. Perfect weekly reset! . gifted by ouai complimentary from ouaii

- Q
Does this product remove chlorine from pools?
- Asked by Missy
- Official Answer By OUAI - Brand EngageYes! Our Detox Shampoo is formulated with chelating agents that help remove chlorine, along with heavy metals and minerals that can build up from hard water. That makes it a great option for a deep cleanse after swimming. That said, while it can help remove chlorine from pool water, it's primarily designed to deep cleanse away product buildup, so we like to set the expectation that pool chlorine isn't its primary use case. For the best post-swim routine, we recommend following up with a good conditioner to help restore moisture after cleansing.Was this answer helpful to you
