Hairprint - Natural Plant-Based Chelating Shampoo To Remove Buildup | Clean, Non-Toxic Haircare (8 fl oz | 240 ml)

This shampoo is all you need to prep for their Hairprint color. It seems the company is trying to cater to niche concerns with alternative directions and products, but most users are probably best served by the original dirctions: use this chelating shampoo, and rinse between the 15min applications. You get a non-toxic brunette, which re-bulks the follicle (adding shine), and fudges your grays. Get your Netflix and a Pinot, hide in the tub from your family for an hour, and sidestep coal tar cancer. The color does get dimensional after a week of chalky Giuliani weirdness. It fades on grays, giving a useful transition. I have fine, medium brunette hair that lightens a bit in summer, I use Dark (or Brown and skip their toner). You can put it right over blonde full highlights. (Their 'Light Brown' is just sheer seemingly, so that wasn't a win over highlights.) I look like Cap'n Morgan for five washes, then fine. Here are pics for proof. I get no kickbacks for this.

My family and I recently located from a city with great water to one with very hard well water. After one year of washing my natural, locked hair in this water, I started to see the nasty whitish mineral buildup in my beautiful locks and started researching ways to remove the buildup that was discoloring my hair. I'd used clarifying shampoos but they made not a bit of difference. After doing more research, I found that I needed to do two things:1) Improve the water. I purchased a shower filter (Auxoda 10-Stage Universal Shower Filter with 2 Replaceable Filter Cartridge - Removes Chlorine, Impurities & Sulfur Odor) from Amazon. This improved the feel and smell of the shower water immediately. You've got to improve the water otherwise nothing you do will work. (Amazon sells several really good ones.)2) Use a CHELATING shampoo: Chelating shampoos are considerable stronger than clarifying shampoos because they strip the hair shaft of whatever is built up on it, especially the heavy minerals and buildup from hard water.There are a few really good chelating shampoos on the market based on reviews but I decided to go with this Hairprint because even though it's a chelating shampoo, it's all natural plant based. It also has the one potent ingredient that gives chelating shampoos their power: EDTA.After one use, my hair was brighter and lighter. The white patches of build up that was making me so sad virtually disappeared. There is still a couple of areas that I need to focus on but the majority of it is gone. Because I have locks, you can really see the difference in my before and after pictures. The before was taken a couple of weeks ago after my daughter walked in the room and asked me, "Why do you have white stripes on your hair." If you look closely, you'll see the white patches in my locks.This is not a shampoo you should use everyday. It is very drying so it's important to follow up with a good conditioning treatment (I also purchased a Hairprint conditioner which I really liked.) It's low suds and has no fragrance. I plan on using it once weekly until my problem is solved and then perhaps every 2 weeks or monthly.Its expensive for the size but I'm so pleased with the results, the cost was well worth it. Highly recommend and will buy again.

This is like a reset button for my hair!!! It gets all the product build off my hair great! It’s a little pricey but you only have to use the tiniest bit to accomplish results!

I have been using this shampoo for about 3 years, mostly right before I color my hair (with henna). I have found that if I don't use this, the henna will not get taken up by the hair. Lately though, I have noticed how soft my hair is after use. It feels a little squeaky clean during the wash, but afterwards my hair is extra soft. I wasn't sure how to rate the scent/thickness because it really doesn't have a scent and it is kind of watery for the shampoo, but to me that is not a negative, so I didn't want to pull down the ratings for something that doesn't matter. Great product!

I purchased this product in hopes of restoring my dry and damaged hair as a result of chemicals and hard shower water. Before ordering this shampoo, I read through all the reviews to make sure it was what I wanted. Since most of the reviews were positive and hardly anything bad was said about it, I decided to take a chance and see if it would work for me. Having literally tried EVERYTHING from oil treatments to vitamins to all these expensive products in attempt to fix my damaged hair, I put a lot of faith into this hoping it would work as great as everybody said it did and for the huge price I paid for it.Furthermore, I also invested in a good water filter for my shower in order to prevent more hard water from building up in my hair (which I suspected was a big part of what was causing it to dry and fall out). Although both these things I believe have shown some improvement in the quality of my hair, it still feels really dry and clumpy after washing it unfortunately. Those like me who have badly damaged hair probably know what I'm talking about; it's like even after thoroughly and carefully washing your hair it's still as dry as the mojave desert and it all sticks together making it hard to comb through without breakage! Plus I am also using an all natural deep conditioning mask after shampooing my hair, which seems to help bring moisture back into it but at the same time I still feel like my hair is being stripped of all the good stuff that's supposed to keep it healthy.This brings me down to 3 possibilities: I am thinking either a) my shower filter is a piece of garbage b) this shampoo isn't right for me or c) I still need to give it more time. I am hoping that C is the answer to my problem, since I have only been using this product for about 3 or 4 weeks now; however I only wash my hair once a week so that means I've only used it about 3-4 times. Well I suppose that's my answer, therefore I guess I'll just continue using it as part of my usual routine and maybe update this review in the future if I notice anything different.
