Come Clean Shampoo

This is my clarifying shampoo of choice. I think I've been using it for about 5 years. I have 4a-4b hair and I do have to be careful about drying shampoos. This works just fine, has a great lather for something that is supposed to be sulfate free. I just have to be certain that as with any shampoo, I use a heavy deep conditioner with heat after.

This is a great clarifying shampoo. I have 3b-3c low porosity curls that can get product build up very easily due to its closed cuticle nature. With just a dime size amount of this shampoo, I am able to get my hair completely clean and ready for conditioner/deep conditioner. I do not use this regularly. I use a hydrating shampoo once a week, co-wash mid-week and this product every 2 weeks (or as …Read more

I purchased this shampoo after reading about it in the science-y hair blog, stating that the c14-16 olefin sulfonate cleansing agent in this shampoo might help remove polyquats and styling polymers better than the usual sulfate clarifying shampoos. My hair is 2C, fine, low/ medium porosity, and we have soft water where I live. Lately my clarifying shampoos haven't been quite cutting it, and …Read more

I like it, however I do not agree that it is gentle enough for everyday use. It does lather really well and it is a bit harsh. My scalp feels squeaky clean and my curls are almost stripped. I only use this as a clarifying shampoo once every few weeks or if I did a hot oil treatment.

I've read reviews about Kinky Curly products, especially the leave-in Knot Today which I'm really excited to try out. This shampoo got me because of the scent...HOLY COW, it smells just like Sprite but in a great way. It's got tangerine oil in it and doesn't make any sense as to how in the world it smells like Sprite but it does and it's amazing.

Love this shampoo, I have very dry hair but oily scalp & this product really washes away debris, oil buildup and impureties. Does not strip the hair. I only use as needed. Love it !! I have 4b/4c hair

IT HAS c14-16 OLEFIN SULFONATE WHICH IS MORE HARSH THAN SULFATES.

I was really looking forward to using this shampoo as it says mild enough for every day use. This is NOT true. I read on the bottle that it was sulfate free, so I assumed it was mild, but once I washed my hair, it was really dry and squeaky clean. It just felt worse than my regular sulfate shampoo. So I researched on …Read more

My hair is dry enough that I go over a month in the winter and it never looks oily or gets matted. This product strips my hair, but not as badly as 99% of other shampoos. So why do I recommend it?

Usually I use a Jessicurl shampoo. But I switch to Come Clean when my hair is too dirty for the Jessicurl to handle. Like when I put bug spray in my hair, swim in a chlorinated pool, hang …Read more

I have 3a curly hair and this product was extremely drying for me! Even after using a deep conditioner. My hair was not itself after using this-this was the only time I've had knots in my hair after washing. Will not be repurchasing. This may be a great product for those who's hair is not so much on the dry side and have a lot of product build up. I feel like it did get my hair …Read more

This is really good for removing the Curling Custard and other build-up, but it is SUPER drying. I have to mix it with some coconut oil so it won't strip my hair and then follow up with a ton of conditioner. It really does give my hair and scalp a clean start, though.

EDIT- I don't use this anymore. In fact, I don't even shampoo anymore. I do the CG method of washing …Read more
