A clean scalp is the starting point for any regimen meant to hold length, and this shampoo is built to clear build-up properly rather than skate over it. The peppermint, rosemary and sage oils make themselves known the moment you start massaging.

The formula lathers richly, which helps it lift product residue off the scalp and along the hair. Rosemary and sage sit alongside peppermint in the blend, and the strengthening work happens on the strand itself as you cleanse.

What it does

  • Deeply cleanses the scalp and removes build-up
  • Strengthens hair strands as it washes
  • Builds a rich lather that spreads easily through textured hair
  • Leaves a cooling sensation from the peppermint, rosemary and sage oils

How to use it

Apply a generous amount to wet hair and work it into a rich lather, massaging gently into the scalp and through the lengths. Rinse thoroughly, and repeat if your hair still feels coated. Follow with the African Pride Strengthening Masque from the same range.

Suits textured and curly hair that needs a proper clarifying wash. 12 oz bottle.

Application tips

Wet hair right through before the shampoo goes near it, then concentrate on the scalp rather than the lengths. Work in rows with the pads of the fingers and let the lather run down as you rinse. If hair still feels coated, go again. The cooling hits about halfway through the massage, which is a decent signal that you have worked it in properly.

Results

Build-up comes off the scalp properly rather than being skated over, which matters if you have been layering oils and creams between washes. The lather is rich enough to travel through dense, textured hair without needing three handfuls. Peppermint, rosemary and sage leave the scalp cool for a while after rinsing, and the strand itself is conditioned as it is cleaned.
