Works for oily stubborn hair!

I just bought my smaller version at Ulta today and I’m so happy that I did! Lately Iv been having oily stubborn hair after showering and washing my hair. I washed my hair twice and my Quai Detox shampoo hasn’t helped me anymore until I Bought “Peptide Preo Detox Shampoo”. I had stubborn oily hair until I wash my hair with this one and OMG MY HAIR FELT SOOO NICE AND CLEAN IT WAS A RELIEF I also followed with my mask and oil . Chefs kiss y’all won’t regret it ❤️

Amazing!

Perfect for a reset, I try to only wash my hair once or twice a week and this always leaves my hair and scalp feeling renewed.

Feels So Clean

I love this shampoo because of how deeply it cleans my scalp & helps remove product buildup. I use this one only once a week, but it’s definitely one of my favorite hair products right now.
