HAIR DETOX

Sunday 16 February 2014



Every now and then hair needs a little break and go back to its original state. These days its quite rare for me to actually just leave my hair to its own devices without using any product. Leave in conditioner, hair oil and texurizing spays are all part of my hair routine, I am sure without them my hair would be a total disaster. But there also lies the problem, too much use of these kind of products can leave my hair feel heavy and unmanageable.

That's when I am in need of a good shampoo detox. A clarifying shampoo will clean away all the silicons that most styling products have in them and leave you hair clean and fresh, bringing its back to its normal glory!!
I love having a bath on a Sunday night using this on my hair, it makes me feel like I am doing a little treatment for my hair and getting it ready for the coming week ahead.

Only problem is that they often can feel super drying on hair and scalp and I don't know about you but when my hair gets really dry it becomes super frizzy and nothing in the would will tame that frizz.
Its so annoying because you know you gotta give your hair a good detox but at the same time you are dreading it because of the dryness you will be left with. That's when my mission began to find a clarifying shampoo that doesn't leave my hair crispy and dry. I wanted a shampoo that cleans but also nourish it at the same time. It was not an easy one to find but I got there in the end.

I tried quite a few, high and low end and I have to say that the high end ones performed much better than the lower end ones. I think the cheaper brands put a lot of sulfates in their shampoos making them really foam up, giving you that herbal essence kind of feeling with lots of bubbles and foam but they also really can make your hair feel dry and sad.

Anyway on to the one that really stood out, PHYTO Clarifying Detox Shampoo!! Not only does it really do a good job cleaning your hair and taking all the nasties away it also leaves your hair in a perfect place. It's not drying at all and doesn't make you hair feel stripped. Its a little bit more expensive that most shampoos but then again I only use it once a week so it will last me for quite some time which makes it in my eyes totally worth it. I even noticed that I can go a day longer in between washes and that's always a good thing.
It's definitely one to keep repurchasing!

  3. Great post, this came at such a good time Im after a clarifying shampoo but it's so hard like you say to find one that doesn't strip your hair or make it dry, I have such a sensitive scalp too so have to be careful what I use. I do think you need a shampoo like this to get rid of all the build up x

    1. If you hair is dry then try a good hair mask. It really did the trick with me. I love the phillip Kingley Elaticizer, did wonders to my damaged hair!!

    1. I have done that too but I found it was a little heavy on my scalp and I stated to have some spots on my scalp. Maybe I should only use it on my ends then. What do you think? How do you use it?
