I have thick, wavy colored hair on the dry side, and I like Terax Latte shampoo. It is a clarifying shampoo that doesn't strip your hair in the least, which is not easy to find.

I also use the baking soda remedy. I mix it with water and make a paste and use before i shampoo. It works wonders.

apple cider vinegar or baking soda does the trick perfectly. NEITHER are drying or stripping. it's just the opposite actually.

Dish washing detergant has worked for me for 5+ years. I use Cascade Don't use a lot and only use it once a month.

I add a teaspoonful of baking soda to my regular shampoo.
The baking soda changes the PH of the shampoo.

Works like a wonder!

I also use a rich conditioner on the ends of my hair after using the above remedy.

I agree about the vinegar. That stuff is amazing! But it does stink (although some ppl love the smell of vinegar).

Thanks for the baking powder tip. I just put some in the palm of my hand and mixed it with my shampoo. My hair feels squeaky clean!

How do you know if your hair has shampoo buildup?

I've heard Kenra products work excellent for this

You get filmy gunk on your scalp. You can see it if you scratch your head ... it gets under your nails. It isn't flaky like dandruff.

Thanks for the baking soda recommendation ... I am going to give that a shot this evening.
I'll also try the apple cider vinegar remedy. If those work well, I can save some money and not have to buy an expensive remedy shampoo.
Thanks for all the suggestions!
