Product Information

Look for a clarifying shampoo: Clarifying shampoos are designed to remove excess oil, dirt, and product buildup from your hair. They contain ingredients that help to deep clean your hair and scalp, leaving your hair feeling fresh and light. Ingredients: "While you can totally go sulfate-free if you prefer, this is one instance where a shampoo that does contain sulfates may be a good idea, simply given that they're better at providing a deep clean," says hairstylist Susan Ford. The Nécessaire The Shampoo and the Kristin Ess Deep Clean Clarifying Shampoo both contain sulfates and do an excellent job at cleansing excess oil without completely stripping the hair. But if you prefer to go sulfate-free, we recommend the AG Hair Balance Apple Cider Vinegar Sulfate-Free Shampoo. The moisturizing shampoo is perfect for those with extremely dry hair, as it instantly nourishes hair, leaving it visibly healthier and less damaged. The formula is infused with Redken's nourish complex, which includes ingredients like Aloe Vera, Inca Inchi Oil, and Cactus Flower Extract to help improve moisture levels in dry hair and add shine.

There are a number of ingredients that help break down oils and wash them away. New York City-based board certified dermatologist, Dr. Claire Wolinsky, recommends ingredients like glycolic and salicylic acid as they lift away excess sebum and dissolve product build-up. These ingredients are notoriously drying, though, so it’s a good idea to look for shampoos with hydrating ingredients, as well, like glycerin. The formula is quite friendly, utilizing apple cider vinegar to cleanse, and aloe vera, ginger root extract, and lavender to soothe the scalp. For this reason, it didn’t lather up like traditional shampoos, and required us to rinse at least twice to achieve that clean feeling.Consider your budget: Redken shampoos can vary in price, so consider your budget when selecting a product. While a more expensive shampoo may have more high-quality ingredients, there are also affordable options that can work just as well. Hard water is full of minerals, and over time, they can create buildup in the hair that can result in greasiness and dull-looking strands. If you’re showering in hard water consistently, it’s a good idea to use a shampoo (like this one) that works to neutralize mineral buildup. With just one shampoo, this formula cleanses the scalp of excess oil and removes copper, iron, magnesium, and calcium, which are often found in hard water. It creates a fine lather that’s easy to massage around the head, and we love that you don’t need to shampoo and rinse twice with it—it’s super clarifying the first time around. Redken Color Extend Conditioner is a professionally formulated product that gently cleanses and protects color-treated hair, leaving it manageable, refreshed, and shiny. This color protecting conditioner is enriched with Redken's Color Care Complex that provides stronger protection to extend the life and vibrancy of hair color. A small amount of this shampoo goes a long way: We found that a quarter-sized dollop was more than enough to cover our whole head. It foamed up in the most luxurious way and really made it feel like we were deep-cleaning our scalp, rinsing away every trace of oil and built-up dry shampoo. Another genius feature of this shampoo? It came with a hard water indicator. The little white strip analyzed the mineral level of our water – the harder the water (or the higher the mineral content), the more damaging it is to hair.

We love that it manages to deeply clean the scalp and hair without over-stripping, and it leaves the hair soft, clean, and shiny. And if you prefer shampoos that aren’t overly fragranced, you’ll also appreciate that this one has just a light floral scent.

Does Redken Have A Shampoo For Oily Hair?

You use product in your hair. Whether it’s the occasional spritz of hairspray or a daily run-through of tendril-taming mousse, hair products can leave a residue that regular shampoo might not be able to remove. You’ll know if you suffer from a dry scalp and oily hair if you frequently have an itchy head (that occasionally flakes), and simultaneously have greasy roots. This is caused by air pollutants, harsh chemicals, or heat damage. Reasoning aside, it’s simply a pain to deal with – until now. There is a stigma around washing your hair too frequently, however. Kingsley clarifies that “shampooing is not damaging to your hair – and it’s great for your scalp. If your face were to get oily, you’d wash it – and so if your hair gets greasy, it’s time to shampoo.” This specialized shampoo is ideal for those with dandruff-prone hair, as it provides relief from the symptoms of dandruff without compromising the health of the hair or scalp. It is a professional-grade solution that is gentle enough for daily use and leaves hair feeling refreshed and revitalized.
