What's the best Clarifying shampoo you can find @ drugstores?

The reason pantene is disliked by the majority of hairdressers is it claims to have this great ingreident called pantehol. while pantehol is great for your hair pantene only has .o1% of it. And its not the silicone in it, its the wax. it coat the hair shaft so nothing can penatrate it, like moisture, and inturn weakens the hair. infusium is bad because of the protein they use in it. its animal protein (hoves, snouts, tail) and the chemicl process use to break down the hoves and stuff stays in that protein and it drys out the hair. infusium is good for a quick fix, like once a month but not everyday because of the excess harsh chemicals. AS a bio major turn hairdresser i really recommend Biolage, Enjoy, Pureology products.

I've used Pantene and Herbal Essences - I rate Pantene over the HE. Seems to do a better job of cleansing without stripping IMO...

i know i just posted about removing hair build-up, but nothing was working so i resulted to a clarifying shampoo...

and i have to say, suave's clarifying shampoo is amazing. and it was only $1.55 @ walmart!

i tried that. and it did absolutely nothing. are you supposed to let the baking soda kinda "sit" there for a little bit? cause i jumped in the shower and applied the baking soda to the spot where i had the most buildup (my hair was dry at the time) and i kinda worked it in and then i got it wet while working it in some more / rinsing it out.

I do too (when I don't use ACV)! Yay for baking soda! Mix together a cup of warm water with a tablespoon of baking soda, pour it on your head, wait for about a minute then rinse. Do not use too much baking soda or it'll make your hair hard. It should work

wow, i would of never thought of baking soda, how funny.

i also like the neutrogena one, and i find that pantene has a lot of build-up w/ their products, but that's just my hair texture maybe (it gets super tangly, it's color-treated, and it's baby fine)

yeah I've heard of baking soda but not something I've tried yet personally... a little scared it's suppose to be pretty drying? Is this true for anyone who has tried it?

Eek! My hairdresser told me that Pantene was really bad for your hair, and that I should start using Infusium if I wanted to stick with drugstore shampoos. I can't believe I actually believed her when I'm so cynical normally. And my hair HAS taken a turn for the worse. Thanks for the info, sassysaphire!

Pink_minx - Neutrogena Anti-Residue Shampoo is great, and if you have color treated hair, go with Neutrogena Clean Color-Defending Shampoo.

Drug store shampoo is like washing your hair with dish washing liquid and silicone!!

I think for clarifying shampoo it's not necessary.
