Anomaly Clarifying Shampoo for Deep Cleanse with Charcoal & Eucalyptus, 325 ml

Bought initially as a clarifying shampoo. Which it does great!!! But it has replaced my regular shampoo as well. I have super dry, porous, curly hair so had problems with product build up. Also had dry itchy scalp. The first time I used it my hair felt just a little dryer than after using my regular shampoo while in the shower before I conditioned. Once I conditioned and my dried it was super soft!!!!!!! My hair no longer feels waxy from product build up even after I put in leave in conditioner, curl cream and gel. My scalp is no longer dry and itchy . After subsequent uses my hair felt just as soft as it felt with my regular shampoo while in the shower before conditioning. And it feels super soft when it is dry. I think it took a couple shampoos to fully get rid of extensive product build up (I hadn’t clarified in 6 months or more). This allowed moisture and conditioner to penetrate my hair. Plus it is not drying like most clarifying shampoos. My scalp is so healthy too!

I have wavy low porosity hair. I also use hair oil religiously, I wash my hair 1-2 times a week and I’ve been in the pool a lot this summer. So there’s a lot of build up on your hair. When I ordered this I had build up and my hair felt “sticky.” My hair oil was starting to “sit” on my hair rather than soak in and I just didn’t have a whole lot of “flow” to go with the waves. After using this my hair is slippery again and it feels lighter. It’s also DRINKING up my hair oil again, which I love (instead of it just sitting on top of my hair and weighing it down.) this shampoo stripped weeks of build up off my hair in the BEST way possible. It did lather but it wasn’t super bubbly for me and the formula is more runny than it is thick, so be aware of that. The smell was great, and I appreciated all the thoughtful marketing (using recycled plastic for the bottles), etc. I am OBSESSED with the flow and bounce this gave back to my hair.

Deep cleansing for your scalp. It feels very fresh and has a mild scent. It helps with oily scalps and prevents dandruff.

Made my hair smooth. I have a rough and textured hair but it helped me smooth it out.

I really like this. Deep cleansing but doesn’t dry out my hair like usual clarifying shampoos. Hair looks shiny and healthy after use. Enjoy the smell as well, reminds me of black licorice
