If your hair has been feeling heavy, dull, greasy-fast, or just off, it might not be your color or your products… it might be buildup. And trust me—buildup is the fastest way to dull great color and make your hair feel unmanageable. Treat clarifying as part of a healthy-hair lifestyle. Like a skin detox—but for your scalp.
🧼 What Is Buildup, Really?
It’s the invisible film that coats your hair and scalp from everyday life:
- Styling products (dry shampoo, texture spray, serums, oils)
- Silicones & conditioners
- Hard water minerals
- Natural oils + dead skin
This layer suffocates your hair, blocks moisture, and makes styling a struggle. And if you’re blonded or colored? Buildup can make your tone look flat or brassy.
💦 Clarifying Shampoo = Your Hair’s Reset Button
A clarifying shampoo goes deeper than your everyday wash. Once a week, it lifts away everything weighing your hair down so your products—and your color—can actually do their job.
🌿 Why I Recommend Weekly Clarifying for All Clients
1️⃣ Scalp Health Comes First
Healthy hair starts at the scalp. Clarifying helps with:
- Itchiness or irritation
- Flaking
- Clogged follicles
- Slow or weak hair growth
Think of it as a clean slate every week.
2️⃣ Better Hair… Instantly
After clarifying, you’ll notice:
- More volume + bounce
- Better curl definition
- Stronger product performance
- Shinier, more vibrant color
Your hair just behaves better.
