20 Best Shampoo For Drug Test (2023 Updated)

I was looking high and low for new shampoo and I am VERY picky, because I notice when my scalp and hair don’t feel properly clean. I did not really want to try sulfate free shampoos because I did think that with shampoo ingredients, there are always new trends about what is “harmful” and I’m not always sure that there is any credible evidence.

I tried out oribe, kiehl’s, nexxus, sachajuan, and none were as good as this. The sulfate free formula actually cleaned my hair much better than any others. I would hate finding that my hair wasn’t clean and I was looking for something powerful.

The oribe was ok but the scent was too strong for shampoo (I did like some of the sprays instead). This product does not have such fabulous packaging, and I would certainly pay more for a larger bottle, but for the formula, this is worth it for me.

I do wish that the sulfate free brands would make better conditioners because the shampoos do tangle your hair unlike anything I have ever seen. I sometimes steal my nexxus conditioner to use with this shampoo because it is so much nicer to brush out with post shower.

As with all skincare / hair care products, the experience is very personal, but I found this shampoo to be much too dry and the scent reminiscent of chlorine and over-strong. Even now, after emptying my bottle to replace with another brand’s shampoo, I can feel that it’s too dry on even just my hands in the process of washing it out.

As a shampoo, it definitely gives you that squeaky-clean feeling, but to a point where it strips your hair and scalp of natural oils which actually has the opposite effect where your body begins to produce more oil to compensate for the moisture loss resulting in an oilier, greasier feeling sooner than you would experience with other shampoos.

Second, the smell. again, smells are very personal, but I found the smell to be kind of wet, musky, and similar to that chlorinated pool smell. Finally, and this is a much smaller nit, but I was confused by how much glitter or micah they put in the shampoo.

For a shampoo that advertises as vegan, cruelty-free, and with charcoal as an ingredient, I was expecting a much more natural style of shampoo. But when it comes out of the bottle it’s viscous and glittery which wasn’t at all what I was expecting.

For reference, I have light warm babylight highlighted hair. There is a lot of calcium and iron in my water that dulls my hair FAST. So I’ve tried Kenra, Ouidad, Ouai, Redken, and Drybars clarifying shampoos.

Finding one that not only is safe for but beneficial for bleached/highlighted hair that actually works hasn’t been easy but I found my Holy Grail in IGK! I was very impressed with this (Kenra & Drybar are 2nd place) since some of the others left my hair feeling greasy, weighed down and totally knotted!! Lookin at you, Quidad, you were a HUGE disappointment! I didn’t use the matching conditioner (I plan on getting it) but used the Wella Warm Blonde toning conditioner instead.

All of my subtle highlights that seemed to disappear are back, my hair is very soft and very volumized after using this! I will say that after shampooing, it felt “squeaky clean” but once I used my conditioner I had NO issues with tangles or knots and my hair is down to my bra line.

I have a naturally oily scalp with dry ends, and straight, fine hair that lacks volume and is prone to tangling. It’s also colour treated. As you can imagine, it takes a helluva product to address all those factors.

Seeking a true hair transformation, I decided to give @grownalchemist a try, because I love that it’s an Australian (like me!) brand that uses no artificial or harmful ingredients. 🌱 I chose the shampoo (damask rose, black pepper, and sage) and the Colour Protect conditioner 0.

3 (aspartic amino acid, hydrolyzed quinoa protein, and ootanga). Each 500ml bottle retails for $49 at grownalchemist. com (shipping was free within the USA). It took me a couple of washes to perfect my use of the products.

Because I’ve typically used very cosmetic products on my hair, I was confused by the minimal lather of the shampoo. I also didn’t anticipate how truly moisturising the conditioner would be, and used too much – so my hair felt a little greasy (also likely due to transitioning to a natural product, and the fact that these products don’t entirely strip your hair of its oils and leave it squeaky clean like inferior products do – an addictive sensation, albeit misguided).

However, since I figured out my perfect usage, which is a slight variation on the directions, I’ve been madly in love with them. My hair is looking and feeling fantastic, with the scalp oils really coming into balance and the mid-lengths and ends starting to benefit from all the hydration (and sun protection!) My personal routine now (every other day) is two pumps of shampoo as directed, then conditioning for 1-2 minutes as directed (I use two pumps); then I freestyle and go in again with a quick mid-length wash using just half a pump of the shampoo to clear out any excess conditioner I may have missed with my rinse.

The products smell incredible, and the potency of the conditioner means I don’t have to stand around waiting too long for it to do its thing. I definitely love these products and am excited to keep using them and improving the health of my hair.

I’m also curious to try GA’s skincare products. [brand:grown-alchemist-87].

This was my absolute favorite shampoo as a person with very fine hair. I’ve recommended it to everyone I know who have now also started using your products. It was easy to use. Lathered up great, only had to use a normal amount to clean my hair, and it was super volumising.

I restocked last year and bought a couple bottles before I had used the rest of what I had. It was such a drastic change between the old formula and the new one. The new formula is very liquidy and I have to use so much of it to clean my hair now.

I used to use 5 pumps. Now I have to use between 15-20 pumps, it takes much longer and it still doesn’t feel clean by the end. Plus it is not volumising anymore! I would have happily paid the $50 and more for each bottle for the rest of my life but now I won’t be purchasing it ever again.

I’m stuck with 2 bottles of the new stuff that I need to get through then I will need to find a replacement since this new stuff sucks. Let me know if you ever go back to the old formula. (I also see that there are no longer any reviews on this product when I know I read that someone else had the same issue before).

Experiencing the exact opposite of what other reviewers stated. There is hardly any lather at all, and yes I’m used to sulfate-free shampoos so I know what to expect. This product takes me three washings to get my medium length hair sort of clean.

I don’t use any heavy styling products so that’s not something I’m used to. Paired with the volumising conditioner (another dud) my hair comes out flat and dull and feels unclean. This product basically does the exact opposite of what it’s marketed to do.

The one positive is the smell is fantastic! Haven’t had a good Grown Alchemist experience yet though and this is their fourth product I’ve tried.

I wasnt expecting much from this because for me, ions products are a hit or miss. i used to love their color protection conditioner but they tweaked the formula and its awful now. Decided to get this for the 4 for 20$ deal.

Honestly i am so glad i chose this one! Smells devine. So so good. The formula texture itself is weird. Like a runny lotion. I wouldnt spray directly on hair or it will be on spots you dont want it to.

I use 3 spritz on my palms and rub it in on each side focusing on ends. Then whatever is left on palms lightly put on top of head and bangs. So 6 spritz for the entire head. Im going to get another one of these, mostly for the smell haha but i truly think it does something good for my hair as well.

I wake up with prettier looking hair qnd not a rats nest. Its actually shiny and bouncy all day long. Just wish the bottle was bigger than 4oz. Will use up run out fast!.

Okay so. I did not have the best experience with this product. This shampoo and conditioner BOTH are we’re VERY drying to my hair. It was too harsh and made my hair brittle, it was literally shedding left and right sooo bad that I just ended up re-washing my hair with different products.

This may be great for someone else, but for myself- being cheap wasn’t my best choice this time.

It smells great but just made my hair feel extra greasy to the point where I had to add dry shampoo to help it not be to oily. I would look at trying another product. The scent is amazing I just wish the product was too.

This shampoo and its matching conditioner feels great on my hair. It helped me fix my hair when I destroyed it by coloring it with a natural henna color that just stripped my hair of natural oils. Seriously my hair felt like straw.

This product and a few hair cuts brought it back to a normal state. It really does heal and repair.

ColorProof shampoos in general are great for maintaining/retaining colors on treated hair. I’ve used ColorProof Moisturizing (purple bottle) and Volumizing (red bottle) shampoos for years. Decided to try this Baobab on my hair due to the frequency of color treatment (every 5 wks).

Baobab seems to clean well and better than the Moisturizing or Volumizing shampoo counterparts in the same brand. Also, I haven’t noticed any stripping of color from my hair. A bit expensive compared to the Moisturizing or Volumizing shampoo counterparts.

But a small amount (quarter size) goes a long way in shampooing hair.

This product is worth the $$. Despite no sulphates, it still lathers. Unlike other safe for color shampoos, my hair still feels clean at 4:00 in the afternoon. My previous color-safe shampoos must have been leaving a little residue because my crown always felt dirty by late afternoon.

This is a clarifying shampoo that gets rid of the product you put in your hair to style, but doesn’t strip the color. My regret is that I always seem to love the expensive stuff and this is never in the liter sale.

I’ll still buy it, though!.

I can always tell when any shampoo is expensive- my hair just looks good when they are. Metal Detox, well, that is rather new to me but there must be something true about it because my coloured hair looks shinier and glossier than usual.

The colour seems to be more vibrant too. What I like about this shampoo is its lush formula that lathers extremely well. Also, the scalp feels clean so the shampoo has rather good cleansing properties.

It smells expensive, exactly like it should. What I do not like about it though is the packaging. While I appreciate a simple design on the sticker, I am not a fan of a bottle. Since the formula is rather thick, it is hard to squeeze the shampoo out of the bottle, especially when your hands are wet.

All in all, the shampoo dies work and is pleasant to use.

I’m usually really skeptical and critical of shampoo that claims to work against hard water/mineral buildup because nothing has worked that well for me before – but this made a difference from the first use.

I have platinum blonde (like, WHITE platinum) hair, and the discoloration and dulling are real, especially in my city that I think is #2 for the hardest water in the US. My hair looked lighter and brighter from the first wash, and it still felt soft and looked shiny.

My color looked more even so it seems to address porosity to a degree as well which is awesome. A lot of shampoo for hard water is super drying and harsh but this isn’t at all! I have curly hair so if it’s drying it’s hard to use semi-regularly but I’m thrilled I won’t have to worry about that with this.

This will absolutely be a staple in my haircare now. I’m so so impressed with it.

I will be honest and say that I thought that L’Oréal Professionnel Metal Detox Shampoo was not going make a great deal of difference to my hair. It’s always nice to find out that you’re wrong. This stuff is the bomb.

It’s designed to remove metal inside the fibre of your hair, metal from the hair colouring process increases the risk breakage and can make your colour look little bit off. I’m very happy to say that it’s all true! The shampoo smells wonderful with a light citrus fragrance and foam beautifully.

My hair feels nicer after washing, the strands cleaner and a little stronger and when dry and the colour and shine is fantastic. Worth the investment.

I suffer from an itchy scalp and my usual shampoo no longer worked. I tried a few different shampoos and this one really works. It leaves my scalp and hair feeling soothed and refreshed. My hair is bleached and toned and it does not affect the colour.

I would definitely recommend this shampoo.

I took a chance on this shampoo. I found it at a marshall’s, and tbh i love it. it did wonders for my hair. i’ll be buying more.

Love the smell and the feeling on my hair after shampooing!

I have been struggling the past two years with my hair. My scalp has been dry and flakey and just generally itchy and my hair has been ranging from frizzy to greasy in about 2 minutes flat. I tried everything, drug store, high end, scalp treatments, EVERYTHING.

Enter this shampoo. I came at the litter sale having very little clue on what I wanted. I orginally wanted biolage but my BB was out so I asked the lady who led me to this product. I got both the shampoo and conditoner.

My hair has never felt better. It feels and stays clean for days, my scalp isn’t killing me, my hair isn’t frizzy. Its the best. I am very much a wash and go kind of gal and this does that while making my hair look and feel great.

Love this stuff.

Because I have SUPER SENSITIVE scalp, and so does my daughter, I thought I’d try. I’ve been using this now for over a year as part of my rotation. She hates it because she’s on a water system that “freaks her system the F#%^ out”, peeling skin, bumps on upper arms, dandruff; all from her college water (MA).

This she says makes it worse. HOWEVER, here in Dallas, when she’s home over break, after a few days of using other shampoos and mixing this into rotation she loves it as much as I do. It takes more to lather and get the entire scalp if you have a lot of fine hair, but this rinses clean and stops the itch for me.

More importantly, it is ok to use on the weird spot that occasionally creeps up on my head that turns from almost bruise like tenderness, to giant scab (cyst?). This doesn’t make it worse or make it occur (most things do, a sensitive scalp treatment at the salon last time, most shampoos.

). I have found, careful study of ingredients and then trial and error work for finding products that don’t set me off. It’s a whole life awareness, as it is not just my scalp. Once I made it a priority to feel better, I figured I could find things that work and aren’t substandard products.

Hope they keep making this line! I love the toning treatment (purple hair mask) too!.

Really glad I found this product! I have pretty thick and wavy asian hair AND have been dealing with an oily scalp, major dandruff and product buildup for almost a year now. Now, I’ve probably tried every type of dandruff shampoo out there and most are just too damaging to the hair or does not effectively cleanse the scalp.

Thank God, I decided to try this shampoo. This does it all for me. It tops any other dandruff shampoo I have ever tried. Within one use, I have noticed a huge difference in my scalp health already. The only critique I would give this product is that you really need to shampoo, rinse then shampoo again in order to get a lather.

Of course, you still gotta follow up with conditioner to bring back any loss of moisture after using this. All I can say is if you have hair and scalp problems like me, I would definitely give this a try.

With that said, I still can’t justify the price but I feel like I have found my holy grail for awhile until I find a better and cheaper one.

This is hands down the best detox shampoo! Every fall/winter my scalp turns against me and gets so irritated and flaky and hot. It’s like nothing soothes it. I kept going through shampoo after shampoo and each natural shampoo was leaving my roots gummy on top of the other issues.

I even tried Briogeo’s charcoal drops and nothing was soothing my scalp until this shampoo! At first I was nervous because I don’t usually use clarifying shampoos because I get my hair colored often (greys at 32, fun!) and because they are usually so drying and stripping.

This shampoo is the first natural one that I have tried that does not leave greasy roots. That soothes my hot-tempered scalp. And all without stripping my hair. Just to emphasize, it is not a moisturizing shampoo so conditioner is key but it does not leave any straw action like other detox shampoos tend to.

This was my first product from this brand and I can’t wait to try more!.

I typically wash my hair once a week as I don’t use product in my hair and I have no need to. I started using the charcoal shampoo and conditioner and I left the shower feeling like my hair was extremely brittle.

The next morning I used a hair masque hoping to balance the dryness, it helped but not much. I washed my hair two days later and I was from dry and brittle to disgustingly greasy. I ended up rewashing my hair later that night with a different shampoo.

It’s now 5 days after the initial wash and my scalp is itchy, my hair is disgustingly greasy and I can’t rebalance my hair. I purchased other products but after testing these two, I have a feeling the rest will be going in the trash as well.

My hair is fine and gets super greasy very quick. I’ve never been one of those people who can go 5 days without washing. I have toe has my hair every other day. I also have bleached blond hair. So the end are dry but roots are greasy.

I tried some of the other Lange shampoos, and they just left my roots still feeling greasy and like a film ago built up on them. So I tried this. It worked great. Bent hair was soft and clean but not dried out.

I use it for every wash and my end are never dry. If you at prone to greasy hair, this works great! Definitely recommend it. It smells great too!.

I recently used Detox shampoo to remove all product build up on my hair. I have normal to dry hair and it is bleached. The shampoo is infused with charcoal, you can see it in the shampoo. It makes a very nice lather.

I was able to shampoo rather easily. It really did remove all product build up, but it also removed all natural. , oil in my hair. When I tried to put my fingers through my hair to scrub my scalp I couldn’t get them through my strands of hair.

So I just mooshed the shampoo around really well until I thought it was clean then rinsed. I thought when I rinsed it I would be able to get my fingers through more easily. Well, I could but just barely.

I used conditioner but it didn’t get much better. I squeezed the water out gently but there was no way I could put a comb or drying brush through it. I put in a lot of the detangler and very gently worked the brush through my hair.

I was able to dry it on low heat but but my hair was terribly dry. I had to use deep leave in conditioner a few times and it eventually got better. But I will not use it again. It might be fine on oily hair or unbleached hair but be careful using it on normal to dry hair.

Upside. It was very clean.

About my hair: The bottom half of my hair is bleached and colored. My hair is wavy/curly and on the thicker side. For about two weeks, my scalp felt VERY oily. I thought it was just adjusting to the changing temperature, but I started becoming self-conscious about wearing my hair certain ways in order to conceal the oiliness.

I contacted my hair stylist, she said it could be due to product build up and recommended this product. IT IS MY NEW HOLY GRAIL HAIR PRODUCT! I don’t know how this isn’t popular, but the turn around of my hair was like magic.

You only need to use a little bit because it lathers extremely well. Also, my hair tends to get a little knotty after but I normally comb it after taking a shower so it’s not a deal breaker for me. Once my hair dries, it feels SO soft and it looks so healthy! I highly encourage everyone to at least try this!.

My hair is normally dull and lifeless. After using this product my hair became vibrant, healthy and alive! I was receiving compliments even from random strangers in the store! I’m so impressed I’ll stay loyal to using this in my hair!.

Love this shampoo!!! A sulfate-free shampoo that makes hair shiny and full of body. Does not weigh down my hair like most shampoo. It is smells terrific. It’s great for cleaning the build-up from hair spray and products that leave a build-up on your hair.

For the past 2 weeks I’ve been on an OGX shampoo conditioner spree. So many new ones out with excellent reviews online that I just had to try. First up was the ‘Purifying + Charcoal Detox’ Shampoo. This one caught my attention as I’m a big fan of Briogeo’s Charcoal shampoo but it is pricey and would be great if I could find a cheaper alternative.

So first impressions. I’m impressed! The scent in here is slightly on the masculine side but don’t let that put you off. For a Sulfate-free shampoo this cleanses really well and lathers decently too.

It could be the combination of charcoal and Kaolin (clay) but there’s much less build-up than normal and my scalp actually feels much calmer and isn’t flaking nor itchy which is fantastic. Have tried out some of the other OGX shampoos which I’ll review seperately, but none compared to this for overall results on hair and scalp.

Will definitely be repurchasing this! Selena x ~ My HG list ~ (As I’ve sampled 100s of skin, hair and m/u products over the last decade and a half, I thought it might be useful to share my top 10 must-have products, subject to change if and when I come across something more effective.

For some reason my hair has been a lot greasier and more lank since lockdown began in March, and no matter what shampoo I’ve used to counteract this my hair would go back to its sorry state after one day.

I have quite curly hair and so I use a serum after washing it, and if I don’t use the right shampoo I can be susceptible to product build-up. So I wanted to find a shampoo that would clarify my hair without stripping away its natural oils, as that would make it dry and frizzy.

I’ve used many of OGX’s shampoos and conditioners over the years, and I’m a huge fan of most of them. Their formulas are thick and feel luxurious for a high-street brand, and their fragrances are absolutely delightful.

However, my absolute all-time favourite is their Charcoal Detox shampoo. This shampoo claims to get rid of build-up and to thoroughly cleanse your hair so that it’s a clean slate to work from every wash.

Charcoal is often used in skincare to achieve the same aim – it helps purify and ‘detox’ the skin by drawing out impurities and congestion for spot-prone skin. So I was curious to see this ingredient being used in haircare for oiliness too.

The formula comes out like a sheer grey, and it has a lovely, thick consistency that forms into a rich lather once applied. I was a little afraid that a thick formula would result in weighing my hair down, but that hasn’t been the case at all.

Instead, my hair is squeaky clean and the curliest it’s been in a very long time, especially as I haven’t been able to have a haircut in many months. It genuinely feels like my hair has been restored to its best after every wash, and my hair no longer feels flat and lacklustre because of it.

This shampoo is often on sale somewhere or other which means it’s priced around the £4. 50 mark (its normal price is £7. 00). It’s now my one and only 💕.

I was unsure about using this product, but I bathe dogs for a living and the high humidity in the air at my work space has my scalp suuuuper oily and I often use dry shampoo. I always feel like Im not 100% getting all of the residue from everything off of my head, and I know that the high humidity is a huge part of the problem.

I’ll be honest, things got bad. I have dandruff, but not the dry, flakey kind. Mine is dense, itchy, and really oily. Ive searched and searched for something to help me, and within the first use, this product did exactly what I needed it to! I can run my fingers through my hair and not feel any oils, build up, or residue.

It DOES dry your hair. Its labeled to be a hair detox, not an every day use sort of product so I recommend using it maybe once or twice a week, depending on your individual needs of course. Its a little harsh with the drying aspect of your hair, leaving it a little bit tangled, but its definitely still manageable and if you need something to rescue your hair like I did, this is the product for you! My hair is so shiny and clean.

I am blown away by the results of this product after its first use. The only thing that I could see bothering some people, is the scent. This shampoo has a very strong scent that lingers even a few hours after your hair is washed and dried.

Personally, I like the scent. But if you’re sensitive to smells, maybe look for an alternative.

While this product didn’t work for me, there is a happy ending to my tale so I’m still giving this lovely conditioner 5 stars. I bought this curly hair product for my straight hair simply hoping to add a boost of moisture to my hair while also thinking that the conditioner’s scent would smell good.

The smell is divine – the soft coconut and other refreshing scents recalls memories of soft white sand, warm ocean water, and relaxation. I felt like my shower had turned into a tropical oasis. My hair felt so soft, moisturized, and silky.

This conditioner smoothed beautifully into my hair and spread easily to coat each strand in moisturizing goodness. As I washed it out, I could feel my hair detangle effortlessly between my fingers. Unfortunately, it was around this time that I started to feel a burning sensation on my scalp.

After I finished rinsing, I checked my scalp in the mirror – red, irritated patches had appeared on my scalp where I had accidentally rubbed some of the product into my skin. This is not uncommon for me, sadly – I have very easily irritated skin! Just to make sure, I rubbed a tiny amount of conditioner into the skin of my inner elbow as a test.

An angry red patch appeared minutes later. My skin clearly disagreed with something in the ingredients. I gave the conditioner to my sister to try and she loves it – she says it makes her hair beautifully shiny and soft, and her skin isn’t bothered in the slightest by the product.

This conditioner will be pure heaven for someone who doesn’t have skin as sensitive as mine. I’m so sad that I can’t use this conditioner (curse my sensitive skin!), but I’m thrilled that it’s working so well for my sister.

Sun Bum, you’ve made a wonderful product!.

This shampoo and conditioner is the best I’ve ever used. My hair is baby fine, curly, easily frizzy, and easily weighed down by hair products. This stuff works. I have an oily scalp and because my hair is fine and high porosity, I have to wash it daily.

I shampoo every day with this, it’s cleansing enough to clean my hair and scalp but never drying. I let the conditioner sit for 2 minutes. My hair has body, curl definition, and no frizz. Love this stuff and it smells pleasantly like fake bananas while wet.

I can’t smell it on my hair once it’s dry. I wish I’d had this all my life. It’s such a perfect balance. It never weighs my hair down, which is rare for fine hair. You don’t need too much of the conditioner.

I actually go through the shampoo faster, which never happens.

The revitalizing shampoo and conditioner leaves my hair so soft and shiny. I have 2b waves but this gives me 2a beach waves with some frizz day one. It looks pretty. But at the end of the day my hair falls straight and the next day I’ve lost all my waves.

This is without stylers. It does weigh my hair down a bit and that’s why I lose my waves. Smells really good and I’m still really shocked it makes my hair so shiny and so soft! Especially since there are no silicones and no polyquats in this line.

The conditioner bottles are way too small, I’m am a heavy handed conditioner user and this would get really expensive to do a 2-1 ratio or 3-1 ratio of conditioners per shampoo. So I don’t know I’m the long run.

With shampoo a little goes a long way.

From all the bottles collecting under my sink, I can promise you I have tried EVERY brand of clarifying shampoo on the market. I have tried everything from the cheap dollar store stuff to the most expensive salon stuff.

NOTHING has worked as well as this does. It cleans all the daily styling gunk from my hair, but it never “strips” it. My hair is never left feeling dry. It actually feels better conditioned after I use this, and I don’t even use a conditioner with it.

I don’t know if it is the baking soda in this shampoo or what it is, but this shampoo leaves my hair with a “slick” feel. It doesn’t leave behind a “coating” either. My hair is left shiny but clean at the same time.

I have very fine hair that has been thinning from a medication that I have to take. It seems like this shampoo has slowed the thinning because I think it is removing the residual medication from my scalp.

For a clarifying shampoo, this doesn’t even strip my semi-permanent color either. Most clarifying shampoos will strip it right out. Previous to this, the only two clarifying shampoos that I was satisfied with were Ojon Full Detox shampoo and AG Hair Therapy Renew Clarifying shampoo.

I liked those also, but since trying Abba, I’m not going back. This shampoo is just in a league of its own. I hope they never stop making this.

And it also removes waterproof mascara without breaking my eyelashes! I’ve been using this clarifying shampoo for about 20 years. It removes product build up fully. I have a very oily scalp so this also helps get rid of the excess oil at my roots.

If you color treat your hair, don’t use this too often as it can dull your color.

It’s good but I don’t recommend it. You need to change. The scent doesn’t last long. It makes the hair dry a lot. This product is good at the beginning but when you use it often it gets bad. That’a all.
