Super clean

This creates a super clean canvas for optimal results when coloring. Also, it’s a wonderful at home cleanser that keeps product buildup from happening but is color safe.

The best product on the market!!!!

Hands down the best shampoo! I live in Florida and we have a very high humidity, my hair was always oily and I had to wash them every day! I tried so many products for the last 10 years! Thanks to this shampoo I don’t have that problem anymore. I never leave a review, this is my first one because this shampoo really works!!
