Why Choose a Gentle, pH-Balanced Hair Rinse?

How to Incorporate a Gentle Clarifying Rinse Into Your Routine

1. Replace Shampoo Occasionally: Use the rinse in place of your regular shampoo when you need a gentle cleanse. 2. Frequency: Some use it every 3rd or 4th wash, others every other wash, and some almost daily—experiment to find what works best for your hair type. 3. Follow with Conditioner (if needed): For extra moisture, follow with a lightweight conditioner, especially if your hair is dry or damaged.
