I have oily roots and dry, damaged ends. Is this shampoo suitable for me?

This shampoo is formulated for hair weakened by colouring, bleaching, heat styling or frequent washing. It cleanses gently, which is good for dry, porous ends, but it may not be strong enough for very oily roots if used every day. The source notes that for very oily roots, alternating with a clarifying wash once a week is a sensible approach. That way you get the gentle, conditioning benefits for the length and ends while still removing excess oil and product buildup from the scalp.

When you use this shampoo, focus the lather on the roots and scalp, and let the suds rinse through the ends. This avoids over-cleansing the already fragile ends. Pair it with a lightweight conditioner or leave-in product on the mid-lengths and ends if they feel dry. If your roots are only slightly oily, you may not need the clarifying wash at all — start with this shampoo alone and see how your scalp responds.
