There was a product recommended recently for removing build up of gunk on hair but I can’t find it.

Sorry to be annoying. It was on a round up a few weeks ago and I have looked- promise. Does anyone know which product it was? My hair and scaly need a detox!
thanks

I have no idea what was in the roundups but if you've got a cheap glycolic acid on hand (the ordinary one is very good for this with its packaging with a handy tip) that works really well to cleanse your scalp, just apply at least half an hour before washing (I usually just apply it the night before) and then follow up with a clarifying shampoo and a hair mask if you've got one, otherwise just leave conditioner in for a bit longer than usual.

Thanks- will give that a go!🙂

I think you’re after a clarifying shampoo op.

I’ve used this one in the past: https://www.lookfantastic.com/ogx-clarify-shine-apple-cider-vinegar-shampoo-385ml/12610945.html?affil=thggpsad&switchcurrency=GBP&shippingcountry=GB&affil=thgppc&kwds=&thg_ppc_campaign=71700000114615816&adtype=pla&product_id=12610945&gbraid=0AAAAAD-fXioQqzlF9G8DlxYp7GQ-vtJrf&gclid=Cj0KCQiAoKeuBhCoARIsAB4WxtdfPruu7jggCpuWLuPhnsMAfI4OEyRPju61-BwlazlQ97BScZlHGX4aAsriEALw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds

Surely any shampoo will do this? A standard cheap shampoo without moisture added.

@43ontherocksporfavor no- there is build up of product and hard water build up too.

Didn't it involve baking soda?

I use baking soda - just mix a teaspoon of baking soda with your shampoo and off you go. It works a treat. Just make sure to really condition afterwards.

Vosene
Or....
washing up liquid.
(I'd go for vosene first)

Didn’t see the original thread but I really like amika exfoliating jelly shampoo - it’s not cheap but does the job and you don’t need to use it all the time, just when there’s a buildup.

I use the Inkey List Glycolic Acid scalp scrub - it's not expensive and works really well - my hair goes a lot longer between washes for using that once a week - feels a lot fresher too!

I just use Fairy washing up liquid. My hair is fabulous after I have washed it.

I use OUAI Detox Shampoo, it's not cheap but you don't need to use much, I also only need to use it once every 2-3wks so lasts ages.

@coxesorangepippin no no baking soda. There had been a thread- I was reading it and then it came up on roundup with a recommended product-I stupidly didn't write it down.

@CuntRYMusicStar I have ordered some of that!
@MissRheingold doesn't it really dry your hair out?
Is vosene a detox shampoo?

Another vote for the OGX cider vinegar one. It does the job brilliantly without stripping all the moisture out of your hair.

What sort of build up are you all talking about that shampoo doesn’t remove it. Have never felt a need and wondering why. I have hard water too.

I swear by head and shoulders when my hair has got a product build up. Seems to do the trick.

Was it Malibu C?

I've suffered with this for year and tried all sorts.

Then I read that the best way to deal with it is to wash your hair upside down (so lean over in the shower and rub hair into nape of neck and let it rinse down).

It works amazingly.

For product and hard water build up you need to look for a chelating shampoo. I'm not sure of exact products but that term should bring up a good selection

Vinegar mixed with a cheap clarifying shampoo. Suds well, leave on 20 minutes.

I think I did see MN promoting this recently in those halfway through a thread insert thingies. Malibu C is a very well liked chelating and clarifying shampoo so would echo the recommendation regardless.

Was it this

@NowWhatUsernameShallIHave yes! I think it was. Well remembered!😍
I have ordered the only list one, but will definitely get this once that is finished. Thank you!

😂 my adhd brain screenshots everything never to be looked again!
this time it came in use!
