Maple Holistics Clarifying Shampoo for Oily Hair — 25 fl oz Deep-Cleansing, Sulfate & Paraben Free with Rosemary & Citrus

This 25 fl oz clarifying shampoo combines rosemary, citrus essential oils, and lightweight plant oils to lift excess oil, styling residue, and mineral buildup without stripping color or leaving hair dry. The formulation aims to balance a greasy scalp while preserving moisture with ingredients like jojoba and peach kernel oil. It's vegan and excludes sulfates and parabens, making it suitable for regular use when you need a thorough detox for hair and scalp.

How does this shampoo clear buildup without harsh sulfates?

The formula uses gentle, non-damaging surfactants alongside clarifying botanicals instead of aggressive sulfates. These surfactants effectively emulsify oils and product residue while maintaining the hair's natural moisture layer. Citrus essential oils help dissolve oily films and rosemary supports scalp freshness.

• Gentle cleansing agents that remove oil and residues
• Citrus oils (lemon) to help dissolve buildup
• Rosemary oil for scalp-refreshing properties
• Sulfate- and paraben-free to reduce harsh stripping

Will this shampoo work on color-treated or delicate hair?

Yes — the product is formulated to be color-safe and free from sulfates that commonly cause color fade. It performs a deeper cleanse while aiming to preserve hair color and manageability. For best results, follow with a conditioner suited to colored hair to restore softness and shine.

• Color-safe formula avoids common harsh surfactants
• Balances cleansing with moisture-supporting oils
• Recommended to pair with a hydrating conditioner

How should I use this shampoo for oily or greasy scalp?

Apply a quarter-sized amount to wet hair and focus on massaging the scalp to lift oil and residue, then rinse thoroughly. Repeat if hair is very greasy or after heavy product use. Use once or twice weekly as a clarifying treatment, or more often if needed depending on oil production and activity level.

• Massage into wet scalp for 60–90 seconds for best lift
• Rinse completely and repeat for heavy buildup
• Follow with conditioner on mid-lengths and ends
• Use weekly or as-needed based on oiliness

What ingredients help nourish hair while detoxing the scalp?

The shampoo blends lightweight nourishing oils with clarifying botanicals so hair doesn’t feel stripped after detoxing. Jojoba and peach kernel oils provide slip and softening properties, while basil and rosemary contribute aromatic and scalp-supporting benefits. The overall balance aims to leave hair clean, manageable, and refreshed.

• Jojoba oil for lightweight conditioning and shine
• Peach kernel oil to soften hair fibers
• Basil and rosemary for refreshing scalp support
• Citrus essential oils for clarifying action and aroma

Who this is for: This clarifying shampoo is aimed at men and women with oily, greasy, or product-laden hair who need a reliable deep-clean without sulfates or parabens. It's a good match for people who wear styling products frequently, swimmers dealing with mineral buildup, or anyone wanting a periodic scalp detox while keeping color-treated hair protected. If your scalp is chronically dry or very sensitive, consider alternating with a hydrating shampoo or consulting a hair-care professional for a tailored routine.
