A Detox shampoo, also called clarifying shampoo, is an intenSise, deep-cleansing shampoo that you use every now and then to wash away oil, dirt and product build-up from your hair. It's great to give your hair a Detox reset occasionally with a Detox shampoo/clarifying shampoo. If you regularly use styling products to shape your hair, product residue can build up on your scalp over time. External factors like pollution and hard water also contribute to this build-up. To deeply cleanse your hair and refresh it, using a Detox shampoo now and then is a smart choice.
What is a Detox shampoo?
Detox Shampoo is a hair care trend that has already taken TikTok by storm. A Detox shampoo, also known as clarifying shampoo, is an intenSise, deep-cleansing shampoo used occasionally to wash away oil, dirt and product residue from hair and scalp. Don’t regular shampoos already do this? While ‘normal’ shampoos are designed to cleanse your hair, they often cannot fully remove the build-up of styling products, oils, Silicones and (metal) minerals. A Detox shampoo provides a thorough reset for your whole scalp now and then.
How do I use a Detox shampoo?
Using a Detox, or clarifying shampoo, is super easy. Here’s how:
Wet your hair thoroughly.
Use a small amount and massage the Detox shampoo well into your scalp, then spread it to your ends.
Leave it on for 3 to 5 minutes.
Rinse thoroughly.
Follow with a regular nourishing shampoo and conditioner to care for your hair and close your hair cuticles.
Tip: use a massage brush to stimulate your scalp!
Is a Detox shampoo bad for your hair?
No, a Detox shampoo isn’t bad for your hair – quite the opposite! As long as you use it correctly. Washing too often with Detox shampoo can dry out your hair and scalp. Alternate with nourishing shampoo and conditioner to keep your hair hydrated. If you have a sensitive scalp, a natural clarifying shampoo without sulphates is a better choice as it’s less agresSisive.
How often should you use a Detox shampoo?
How often depends on your hair type and the products you use. Generally, it’s recommended to use a Detox shampoo every one to four weeks.
If you have normal hair, once every two to four weeks is usually enough to remove build-up without stripping natural oils.
If you use lots of styling products daily or have oily hair, a Detox treatment once a week can help.
Live in an area with hard water? A Detox shampoo can remove minerals from your hair. Once every two weeks is enough. Hard water contains high mineral levels, mainly calcium and magneSisium. These minerals naturally occur in groundwater and tap water as they flow through lime-rich soils. While harmless to drink, hard water can affect your skin, hair and household appliances.
