Elucence Volume Clarifying Shampoo, 10.1-Ounce (2-Pack)

This is a true clarifying shampoo. I have been trying to get silicone buildup out of my hair after moving to non-silicone products (Deva-Curl line). This shampoo got it out and helped me start over. This isn't meant to be used every time you wash your hair. I finished with my deva curl conditioner and I have super bouncy, light, soft hair today... which I haven't seen in a long time! I'm so thrilled with it. Fantastic product!! I thought I had oily, dandruffy hair and have been using head and shoulders for years - since changing to this routine my dandruff is gone and my hair doesn't get oily - even going several days between washing. It is super thick, curly, and dense.

I love this shampoo for monthly clarifying.Pros: sulfate free, concentrated, non sensitizing on my infant level sensitive skin, so concentrated that a dollop the size of two peas creates a ferodcp creates enough lather for two washes, removes product buildup and refreshes scalp without drying hair, light pleasant fruity scent, good valueCons: I wish it had fewer man made chemicals.Bottom line: I recommend this shampoo for anyone who uses styling products or had oilyish hair. It had helped me get the Deva Curl products out of my hair so I can start over.

I bought this months ago and I still have half a bottle left. A little goes a long way. It lathers up nicely, cleans thoroughly and rinses out completely. It has a very mild, pleasant aroma that's doesn't overpower or clash with the scents of my other products. My hair is fuller and softer since I've been using this product. My hair is still thinning, but I think that's just a part of aging, and there isn't much anyone can do about that. I would definitely buy this again.

I have medium length, coily hair (4b/c) that is high porosity and color treated so my hair is easily dried out; thus I was really worried about using a clarifying shampoo. However, my scalp is oily and I need to make sure it is cleaned thoroughly so I need a clarifying shampoo. I decided to use this one because I am a huge fan of their moisture benefits shampoo. The first time I used this, it did dry my hair out very badly but my scalp was amazingly cleaned and less irritated so it was a win-lose situation. Next time I used it I decided to only wash my scalp letting the residual rinse off clean my hair instead of actually applying the shampoo directly to my hair and it helped with the dryness a lot. The next time I used it I did a hot oil treatment prior to shampooing along with the previous method and my hair no longer came out dry like the desert. So if you are having issues with this product drying out your hair but you need a super clean scalp, try doing a hot oil treatment prior to shampooing and do not scrub your hair with the shampoo. I gave this 4/5 stars because even after all my tweaks it is still a little drying, although not as bad, and it also does not have the slip I am use to with the moisture benefits shampoo.

For the record- I have very fine wavy/curly hair. I bought this shampoo to use as a clarifying shampoo once every few weeks or so to remove product buildup. I follow the Curly Girl Method, so my regular shampoo is sulfate-free, but to be a clarifying shampoo it really needs to have some sulfates. I was worried that this shampoo might irritate my scalp since I've been sensitive to sulfates in the past. Nope! Not only did it do a wonderful jab at clarifying, but it is a delightful shampoo in general. I've never seen a shampoo with so many wonderful and interesting ingredients (chemical exfolient, green tea, and sage- score!). Give this a try.

I love this shampoo. I’ve always used various shampoos interchangeably but after ordering this, I am on my third bottle. It is the best for my fine, thin hair. The scent is subtle and great.

This shampoo definitely clarifies, but it is very very drying for my hair. Whenever I use it, I have to use my deep conditioner afterward. It could just be my hair type that doesn't take well to the product, but if you are looking for a clarifying shampoo that doesn't strip your hair of all moisture, look elsewhere.

This product is extremely helpful for eliminating itching and dandruff. I'm currently only using it 1x a week (as most people do with clarifying shampoos to remove oil and buildup). I may or may not increase it to every 4 or 5 days but the immediate relief is great. Word of advice, don't add excess oil to your hair and scalp or any sort of powders like gotu kola, Cinnamon, whatever. If you use peppermint oil just add a few drops to your cowash.Direct contact with oils and other products is bad because you'll get too oily and itchy. It's best to add small amounts to things like conditioner or cowash.Using this + my normal conditioner (NYC Curls) left it soft and light. Just remember to not overdo it with products. It's really easy to overdo it. Oh, and avoid curling gels and creams, you'll save yourself from the terrible itching they tend to cause.
