L’Oréal Paris Scalp Care Clarifying Shampoo
Clarifying shampoos are designed to eliminate product build-up that clogs hair follicles, leaving your strands dull and lifeless. While these deep-cleaning formulas should not be used daily, rather several times each week for best results in terms of revitalizing both scalp and strand health.
This sulfate-free clarifying shampoo helps address dull and rough textures caused by hard water minerals, styling residues and color treated hair strands, leaving hair healthy and hydrated. Utilizing dual action technology with Glycine for break down and removal while simultaneously providing essential hydration benefits, this clarifying shampoo delivers essential results!
Dependent upon your lifestyle and product usage, clarifying shampoo may need to be used anywhere from once every other day or just once or twice weekly. Clarifying shampoos are especially recommended before receiving chemical services such as hair coloring to ensure your strands are thoroughly cleansed prior to beginning the coloring process.

L’Oréal Paris Colorista Gentle Cleansing Shampoo
When caring for color-treated hair, selecting a shampoo that will keep it looking its best can be crucial to its long-term health and vibrancy. We advise opting for a clarifying shampoo which removes minerals from hard water deposits as well as styling residues which may contribute to dullness or damage over time.
For those with fine or flat hair, volumizing shampoo can provide more body and dimension to your strands. We suggest the L’Oreal Paris EverPure Sulfate-Free Volume Shampoo & Conditioner with Lotus for lasting volume that keeps strands looking healthy and beautiful.
For damaged strands, try using a bond-repairing shampoo designed to strengthen weak strands while increasing manageability. We like L’Oreal Professionnel Serie Expert Vitamino Color Resveratrol Repairing Shampoo; its special formula protects colored and highlighted hair against dullness and fade.
