Clarifying Shampoo

Uses

• Pre-dye hair preparation, deep-cleansing build-up removal.
• Note that this clarifying shampoo contains a sulphate cleanser and is suitable for use with the Curly Girl Method as a clarifying shampoo only.

Hair and dye-prep benefits

• Botanical dye preparation: Completely strips away stubborn residues and coating agents like silicones and polymers, leaving the hair cuticles receptive to natural plant pigments.
• Deep yet safe clarification: Utilises a carefully balanced mild sulphate combined with three ultra-gentle cleansers to safely lift build-up from your hair.
• Pure foundation: Free from synthetic fragrances, animal products, or palm oil, ensuring no new film is left behind on the hair before your dye application.

Environmental and ethical notes

Product Precautions

• Frequency warning: This is a specialised detoxifying shampoo. It is not recommended for daily or regular use, as it can strip away the herbal dye pigments if used after colouring.
• Eye care: Avoid direct contact with the eyes. If contact occurs, rinse thoroughly with fresh water.
• Storage and safety: Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight. Keep out of reach of children.

For the best colour results, use this clarifying shampoo before you dye your hair.
Important pre-dye application guidelines

• The perfect timing: Wash your hair with this shampoo just BEFORE you intend to apply your Love My Hair botanical dye.
• The clean slate: Do not use any conditioner, hair mask, or leave-in styling product after using this shampoo.
• The application: Apply the shampoo to wet hair and work it into a rich lather, massaging thoroughly from roots to ends. A little goes a long way. Rinse out completely with warm water and repeat the wash if you have heavy product build-up.
• The moisture baseline: Once rinsed, dry your hair until it is either completely dry or just slightly damp. Do not apply your herbal dye mixture to soaking wet hair.
