Suave Ocean Breeze Refreshing Shampoo, Sea Algae Extract & Vitamin E, 22.5 FL OZ

This shampoo (and the conditioner that goes with it) was such a great find! After I had kids, my hair started getting gunky. I can't think of a better way to describe it. It just felt oily and gross even after washing it. For a while, I was using baking soda to wash it and that helped, but it was annoying. So I splurged on Pureology shampoo and conditioner and found that it worked great. But then my daughter hit puberty and her hair became oily too. She also found that Pureology did the trick. But it isn't cheap and I have to order it. I started trying to find something comparable at a more affordable price point and readily available. I tried several different brands ranging from $8 to $15 a bottle, and none of them worked. I ended up picking up this Suave Clarifying just to have something cheap until I could order more Pureology. It ended up working great! My daughter and I were both very pleasantly surprised, and it has saved me so much money! Now we alternate it with Pureology and the balance works well. If we use the Suave by itself for too long our hair feels dry, so switching between the two has been what works best for us. And I love that Suave doesn't test on animals!

I use this to remove the build up from other products. Use it a couple times a months. Works greats. I wash hair, let it set for a couple of minutes, rinse then rewash again just to make sure it has removed the build up. Then follow up with my conditioner. Hair will feel a bit dry before using conditioner, but after conditioner use, gets so soft and clean feeling. Hair looks so much better and so soft. Lathers up nicely. Doesn't leave a residue.
