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...

Amazing
Hair Type Wavy Hair
as someone who uses a lot of products I love using a clarifying shampoo to clear my hair. This one is great because it works into a nice lather and helps remove all the buildup but it doesn't leave your hair feeling stripped and dry! Complimentary from Ouai
A must buy
Hair Type Wavy Hair
This shampoo truly deep cleans your scalp by removing buildup without over-drying, it helps with my greasy hair days, I use it when my hair needs a detox. It helps take away oil, dirt, and buildup leaving my hair feeling refreshed. The scent is very pleasant as well and isn't overpowering. Such a good shampoo! My hair feels so clean and healthy after using this. Gifted by OUAI
Good detox shampoo
Hair Type Straight Hair
I tried this shampoo on day-four hair that already had mousse and dry shampoo built up in it. Since I usually double-wash to make sure everything comes out, I did the same here, and it worked really well. My hair felt thoroughly cleansed, though a little on the dry side. After following up with conditioner, it softened right back up. Overall, I'm pleased with this product, it got the job done. Gifted by Ouai.
A Deep Clean Without the Dryness
the results can be striking: hair that feels lighter, cleaner, shinier, and a scalp that stays fresh. I love how it removes excess product, cleanses my scalp. my strands feeling much lighter and more free. gifted by ouai.
So good!
Hair Type Straight Hair
