PHYTO CLARIFYING DETOX SHAMPOO
Trying to find a clarifying shampoo that works for dry and damaged has been an ongoing mission for me. My hair had recently been feeling a little greasy at the back and in the roots and I never felt satisfied that it was clean after washing. It may have something to do with a recent Nano Keratin treatment but it also may have just been product build up. Either way, when I mentioned clarifying shampoo to my hairdresser his face said it all…. “no way, not for your hair”.
The idea of a clarifying shampoo is to strip it back to it’s original state pre-products, so it can be very drying and it can also remove any conditioning treatments you may have had. I knew which ones wouldn’t work for me, Bumble & Bumble Sunday Shampoo, Boots own detox shampoo… all the usual “it slightly dried out my hair” culprits. So I thought I’d go to my trusty hair brand, Phyto, a French brand that never fails me in terms of protecting my brittle hair.
The Phyto Clarifying Detox Shampoo comes in an easy-to-use metal tube and the product itself is bright green. I shampooed my hair all over using my usual shampoo and then followed with a small amount of the Phyto shampoo just in the one area I needed it at the back of my head. I didn’t leave it on for too long before rinsing and following with a nourishing conditioner.
I was amazed at how well it did the job straight away! My hair felt fresh and clean without being too squeaky clean or dry. My Nano Keratin treatment remained intact and I just felt like that one greasy patch that wouldn’t go away had just disappeared out of sight.
It’s definitely a product I’ll be keeping on hand for the odd use here and there and I’d definitely recommend it if you’re having the same problem.
