A clarifying shampoo is a ultra-cleansing shampoo that remove all traces of dirt, product build-up. They are necessary for removing hard water deposits and chlorine. They are relatively new to many black women but so are a lot of products that we didn’t even realize we needed just like heat protectant. It was a long time before I even knew I need this type of shampoo so don’t fret if you don’t have one but know they need to be added to the list.

They also are great for getting all the relaxer products you’ve been using in your hair out so your natural hair products will work better. They won’t strip the relaxer out of your hair but instead remove all traces of dirt, product, pollutants and hard water deposits.

Sulfates, surfactants or cleansers are too harsh for our strands. Clarifying shampoos have them in their formulas (most of the time) and one of the reasons we don’t use them often. Simply put, a sulfate-free shampoo is free of sulfates or primary surfactants. They are just milder detergents that don’t completely wash away hair’s much needed moisture. Most do not lather and are great for 3 & 4 hair textures or color-treated hair.

Many naturals who have not embraced or don’t care for cowashing opt for sulfate-free shampoos and find them to be perfect for removing all traces of dirt without stripping all their moisture.
