Most Helpful Positive Review I would buy this product again and again I always switched salon brand shampoos, they would work great for that day of / next day hair when I chose to do some styling. However, my hair tends to go flat and greases end of day 2 and onto day 3.
I decided to keep a clarifying shampoo handy and ya'll.. when I tell you this is my HOLY GRAIL and it's all I'm using now. I don't even feel the need to style my hair, my natural hair feels so happy product free and silky. Both the scalp and the body of my hair are so happy!! I highly suggest this shampoo if 1. You use a lot of product that causes product build up such as shampoos hair sprays etc. or if you're like me and have finer straight hair that becomes flat and grimey quicker. I don't need a heavy product just something that clarifies and allows my natural straight hair to shine ☺️
Most Helpful Critical Review 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 wondering why it wasn't getting lighter, only to realize it was just all built up oil and grease. Ulta was great and set me up with better products (went to a different store), but it took two washes with a different clarifying shampoo to restore some amount of normalcy to my hair. I think this product is all hype and not worth the insane price.

I loved this detox shampoo. It was recommended by someone at the store and I must say I love it. Some people may not like the smell, but I most certainly did. Leaves my hair smelling great and I like how shiny and clean it feels afterwards. I don't use it everyday as it could dry out your hair. I recommend you do pair with conditioner.
JUST WOW 5
Cece from Texas
I usually don't write reviews but omg I really love this shampoo!! I received it in a sample pack first time, & I used it and loved it! My hair tends to get oily on the second day after washing it but with this detox it really helps my oily scalp. I do use it every two weeks bc I don't use a lot of spray/oil on my hair or use heat. so I don't get very much buildup! A bottle has last up to 6 months if I use it every two weeks! GREAT INVESTMENT!!! Hope this helps. :)
Omg yes 5
Madi from NYC
Im not one to splurge on shampoo - i care about my hair and have a routine ive taken years to build. But i think by reading ingredients on drugstore shampoos is fine. Ive been traveling a lot recently and my hair and scalp has been greasy and I usually get dandruff immediately after washing. I was 2x maybe 3x a week - and i borrowed this from a friend who graciously let me use it. Ive never noticed a difference in my hair after 1 use like this. Its like all the traveling was taken out of my hair, my hair seriously has never looked or felt this good and my scalp isnt itchy or flaky. Idk what is in this but im buying my own - im obsessed. I have shorter, healthy 1a/b hair and this has given it a shine and volume that ive never seen before, it literally looks like ive gotten a blowout or something!
black hair friendly!! 5
E. from st. louis
bought this shampoo to help with my dry, flaky scalp and finally found a product that works super well for me. i have 3c/4a hair and this makes my hair feel very clean and soft .this is great if you use a lot of edge control, hairspray, oils etc. because it really gets rid of everything for a clean scalp. would recommended you use a really hydrating conditioner afterwards but overall it's a good product!!
So right 5

I have type 1a color treated hair. I get such a wonderful lather from this and it smells great. I only use it every 2 or 3 washes. I'll definitely repurchase.

I live in New Mexico and the water is very hard here. This shampoo made my hair even greasier. Very disappointed.
Perfect hair detox 5
Jtricky from Georgia
This is a great detox shampoo but it doesn't have a lot of lather. I start with a little bit of my regular shampoo and add this on top to get the cleanest, best hair
Bought once months ago and a little goes a VERY Long way 5
Lili from Ventura, CA
I bought this product when I convinced myself I needed to invest in my hair as much as I invest in my face. I have a lot of hair but it is very thin and holds on to grease very easily. I bought this on a whim and use it every time I do hair days (1-2 times a week) and it truly gets my scalp clean with a dime-quarter sized amount! Now I can go longer in between wash days and it does not weigh down my hair. It is the only thing that makes my hair feel clean, and I've tried other shampoos after this and I keep going back to this one.

MStr7 from Madison, WI
I love this shampoo and it's my favorite one to use right now. It gives me so much volume even when I air dry my hair and it lathers A LOT so you don't need to have a big gob of it. Your hair really does feel different after using and I would definitely use this again.
Worth it 4
Tania from San Bernardino, CA
I religiously wear dry shampoo and skip washing my hair as much as possible. This shampoo removes all the residue and whatever other dirt my regular shampoo might miss. The bottle is tiny but using it once a week, it will definitely last. The one thing I wasn't too happy about is that there is hardly any lather. However it does it's job regardless.
Greasy head? Build up head? Get it right now 5
Oily head from Phoenix
So, I THOUGHT for the longest time I had dandruff, but reality was that I had buildup from all my dry shampoo & hairsprays. And also I have genetically an oily scalp. I legit just bought this bc my coworker loves all OUAI's products, and she said this was a must for the buildup. After ONE USE, my hair already feels lighter, the buildup is gone, (I used to be able to scratch the buildup in my hair disgusting I know) and leaves such a nice scent. When you first lather it you smell a little bit of the apple cider vinegar but nothing per say like DPHUE's rinse which REEKS.
Definitely buy this for oily head & build up heads.
Irritated my scalp 1
Rebecca from Los Angeles, CA
I wanted to love this shampoo. It smells amazing and feels like it gets my hair really clean. I used it about once a week as a clarifying shampoo. But, my scalp doesn't love it. It leaves me with sores on my scalp that really hurt when I touch them. I haven't changed my other hair products or care so I know this shampoo is the culprit. I've been careful not to pick at the sores so hopefully they will go away soon, but unfortunately, this means this shampoo is going to go away, too - into the trash.
Yesss 5
Rose from CT
I love this shampoo! My current routine is this shampoo once a week, olaplex no 3&8 masque right after, then rinse and blow dry with keratin complex keratin infusion cream. Since I started this routine & invested in the Dyson hair dryer, my hair has been looking and feeling the best it has in a long time! My blonde is brighter and my hair feels very light, clean, and buttery soft. As someone who has dry / damaged hair from bleaching I don't think it's doing anything bad to my hair! :) I also think it smells nice!
Oily hair approved 4
Itsjess from San Pedro, CA
So this is basically a clarifying shampoo, used a few times a month to really give you a nice clean reset from product buildup. I have pretty oily hair and was pretty satisfied with the performance of the product. I received this as a complimentary sample, and even though it doesn't come with much the sample size efficiently cleaned my shoulder length thick hair. So clearly just a bit of this shampoo does wonders. The price point is high however for a shampoo you won't be using very often it seems worth the splurge if you can afford it.
Great to use every 2 weeks to get rid of built-up product 5
FLYMUG from Chicago
I use this shampoo every couple of weeks or so when I try to work in a 3-day period between shampoos. It gets any built-up dry shampoo and other products out, and it is still gentle on my hair. I have a lot of hair, but it's really fine so it can be easily damaged. This product doesn't dry it out and leaves it feeling super clean.
AMAZING 5
Bri from Boston
This product is seriously amazing! I try to wash my hair only 1-2 times a week, and I use dry shampoo and after using this my hair is soft and fresh for days! Normal shampoo leaves me needing a wash 1-2 days later, but this allowed me to go 3-4 days without even needing dry shampoo!!!! Highly recommend!!! Worth the price for sure!
Do not buy unless you want to go bald 2
Ana M from New Jersey

Absolutely would not recommend 1

Used once and got horrible acne and bumps all over my scalp and forehead. Turned my scalp into an itchy bumpy mess would not recommend to anyone
Two words - hair fall!!! 1
Belinda from Arizona
Please check the ingredients!! I started noticed massive amounts of hair fall when starting to use this product and did my research and it contains Butylphenyl Methylpropional. It's one of the worst ingredients you can use and is linked to hair loss. It's such a terrible ingredient that people are trying to ban it. Do not buy this product!!!

Found my HG detox shampoo 5
Imjustagrl1978 from Tampa, FL
This stuff is amazing! I hate washing my hair, like really despise it, so I load up on dry shampoo to help me last as long as possible between washes. This shampoo is the best detox shampoo I have ever used and the scent is glorious!!! I will absolutely buy again.
Great for Hait Treatment Days 5
NewHairWhoDis from Texas
I received a sample of this and I used it when I was applying a deep moisturizing mask. It left my scalp feeling clean and relaxed. It did not mess with my waves or curls. I will say if you don't like heavy scents you might not like this but I honestly didn't mind it.
