Aunt Jackie's Power Wash Intense Moisture Clarifying Shampoo 12oz
Every curly routine builds up eventually. Butters, gels, dry shampoo and hard water leave a film that stops moisture getting in, and no amount of deep conditioning fixes it while the film is still there. A clarifying wash resets it.
Power Wash is that reset, with the moisture kept in rather than stripped out. Clarifying shampoos have a reputation for leaving hair like straw, and most of them earn it. This one cleans hard and still leaves the hair soft enough to comb through afterwards, and the 12oz bottle lasts a long time at once-a-month use.
Once a month suits most people. More often if you style with heavy butters or live somewhere with very hard water, less if your hair is fine or colour-treated. Work it into the scalp, let the lather run down the lengths, rinse, then follow with a deep conditioner in the same session. Skipping that second step is where people go wrong.
Built for type 3b through 4c hair, where build-up sits heaviest and shows up as dullness first.

Application tips
Two short washes beat one long one. The first lifts the surface film, the second actually reaches the scalp, and you will hear the lather change between them.
Work in sections if your hair is dense, and keep it above the ears so the ends only get the run-off. Save it for the wash before a deep treatment, when you want the hair ready to take something in.
Results
Hair feels stripped back in the good sense, lighter at the root, with the curl pattern showing again after weeks of being weighed flat. Colour looks brighter and shine returns, because the film that was dulling it has gone.
The lengths still comb through afterwards rather than seizing up. Products that had stopped working start working again, which is usually a build-up problem wearing a product problem's clothes.
