Now, once in a blue moon, your hair needs a reset. That’s where a clarifying shampoo comes in. Think of it as a spring cleaning for your curls—it strips away product buildup, hard water gunk, and that weird sticky feeling from too much gel.
But don’t get trigger-happy. Use it once a month, max. Over-clarifying natural hair is like scrubbing a suede couch with a wire brush. It’ll get clean, sure, but also traumatized.
Conditioning: Your New Best Friend
