Shampoo, but hair doesn't feel clean
What is it with shampoos these days?
You get loads of lather, yet your hair just doesn't feel clean ![]() Mine is greasy and I would really like that squeeky clean feeling and get softness by applying conditioner after. Any recommendations? |

How hard is your water?
Do you use the same shampoo regularly? Both of these things could lead to a build up of previous shampoos, conditioners and product. I use Epsom salts in the water when I wash my hair as the water in Norwich is incredibly hard. I only use a shampoo/conditioner twice then change to another brand for the next two washes, then back again. If my hair is feeling really built up I use the pink (with glittery bits in it) L'Oréal elvive Shampoo and conditioner. Think it's called something like high gloss. It seems to work really well as a clarifier. Hair is soft and very shiny afterwards. And yes, it squeaks! |

I really like those tips. I'll give both of them a go.
Epsom salts? Boots ? |

I always give this tip when people ask regarding dull hair etc. I use Fairy Liquid every 5 or 6 washes, sometimes more often. I have grey hair that can become dull with product build up so the Fairy Liquid gets rid of that build up. I expect some people will say it is not good to use this, but I have used it for years and years and always get compliments on my healthy shiny hair after I have washed it with this. I also find my hair is better without wash in conditioner, I just use a shine serum or cream each morning before I use the hair dryer to style it quickly. (My short hair only takes a couple of minutes to style)

Use Lush Daddyo- your hair feels totally different after using it, a medium sized bottle lasts a year as it's so concentrated, and it's not tested on animals like that L'Oreal shit.

OP you need to clarify your hair. Sounds like your hair has a build up of product. When it gets to this stage 'normal' shampoos just don't seem to shift the build up sufficiently. Have a look for clarifying shampoos. Or google 'cider vinegar shampoo' which is cheap but very effective.

Alternate between a clear and creamy shampoo, otherwise you get a build up.
