16 Best Clarifying Shampoos for Curly Hair and Natural Hair 2024
I am pro-sulfates. I know, I know! It's wild! But for oily hair, it's the only way to get rid of all of that buildup and start fresh, resulting in voluminous, springy curls. Once a month, I love giving my scalp a serious wash with this sulfate-spiked cleanser from Mizani. Sodium laureth sulfate (SLES) breaks down oils, silicones, waxes, dry shampoo—you name it—while salicylic acid chemically exfoliates your scalp and charcoal buffs away flakes.
PSA: Don't let the name fool you, because I wouldn't say it's necessarily "gentle." So keep it to a minimum (once a month, max) and treat your ends with some TLC afterward with a deep conditioner.
- Key ingredients: Charcoal, sulfates, salicylic acid
- Sulfate free? No

Glowing customer review: "I really liked this clarifying shampoo. It definitely removed build-up and oil from my scalp, without making my hair (curly 3b) feel extremely dry or brittle. Combined with the mask, it was a extremely satisfying process. Once after washing, I didn't put any product on my hair, and my hair dried curly but with basically no frizz."
