Clarifying Your Hair

​How to Clarify Your Hair properly:  A Guide for Getting the Best Results - 
​
Caring for your hair can sometimes feel like a mystery. You may know your hair type, curl pattern or propensity for oiliness, but what do you do when your hair care line up seems to have stopped working? How do you explain your hair suddenly feeling heavier and greasier than usual? The culprit might not be the formulas you’re using, but something a little trickier to spot  product build-up.

Before you toss your favourite shampoos and styling products, there’s a simpler solution. Clarifying your hair is often all that’s needed to get you back on track. You can think of it as a quick reset that’s important for a healthy scalp and head of hair. 
Essentially, hair clarification is a process that removes build up from your hair. Styling products, hard water and natural oil production are all things that can lead to a little extra grease and sad-looking tresses. Fortunately, a quick clarifying shampoo, or scrub can quickly nip the resulting annoyances in the bud and give your scalp a fresh start.

How Often Should You Clarify Your Hair?

We recommend clarifying your hair between once a month to four times a month, but it will largely depend on your lifestyle and hair type. If dry shampoo, hairspray, pastes, and other styling products are a part of your daily routine, if you shower in hard water, or spend a lot of time sweating or swimming, you may want to opt for a clarifying rinse or shampoo once a week, or four times a month.
If you rarely use hair products and often don’t have an oily scalp or hair, you can lean on a less frequent hair clarifying routine, around once a month or as needed if you start to notice the signs of build-up.

If you’d prefer a professional treatment, you can place your hair in our stylists hands as they know the best care protocol for hair clarification.
