Chlorine buildup is a constant problem during the warmer months. While no one should have to restrict their pool visits due to haircare, your hair definitely needs more TLC during the warmer months, and it all starts with a clean slate. You should always rinse your hair after coming out of the pool, but on the days when you want to reset, consider using a metal detox shampoo. Ahead, here are three metal detox shampoos that will do exactly that and not overtly dry your strands.
OUAI Detox Shampoo
Made of apple cider vinegar and hydrolyzed keratin, this shampoo removes product and hard water deposits build-up without damaging your strands. It’s scent is not abrasive and it leaves your hair feeling refreshed after one wash. I do believe it works best on thin hair, but it lathers nicely even on curly, thicker hair. Plus, the bottle is fully recyclable!

Raw Sugar The Deep Cleanse Shampoo
Raw Sugar’s detox shampoo is formulated with a myriad of natural ingredients including charcoal powder, matcha, and aloe. This powerful mix removes residue, thanks to matcha being rich in essential minerals, aminos, and vitamins, and aloe’s hydration properties. Plus, it also treats dryness. If you’re going to be taking a good amount of trips to the pool this summer, this shampoo is affordable, so no need to use it sparingly. Not to mention, all of Raw Sugar’s products are vegan, animal test-free, color safe, and are formulated without sulfates and parabens.

K18 Peptide Prep Detox Shampoo
K18 is known mainly for its deep conditioning treatments but their Peptide Prep Detox Shampoo should also get some praise. A tiny dot of this product goes a long way on all hair densities. Not to mention, it’s color safe, and non-stripping. This shampoo has only 17 ingredients including salicylic acid, charcoal powder, glycerin, and its patented peptide. In addition to being PH-optimized, its most important characteristic, for this list’s purpose, is that it tackles common metals.
