Buildup Buster® 101
No, Buildup Buster® is safe for use on color-treated hair.
Yes, you can use it weekly or as needed, as a replacement of your regular cleanser to deeply clean and help remove buildup.
We recommend approximately 1 tablespoon for fine hair and approximately a palm-full for thick hair.
Yes, you must rinse out Buildup Buster® to get your scalp and curls clean and remove buildup. It is not a leave in.
It is necessary to follow up with a conditioner or moisturizing treatment to ensure waves and curls are appropriately moisturized and to avoid frizz and dryness.

A comforting, spa-like scent that starts with notes of Eucalyptus, Coriander, Peppermint and Jasmine and finishes with Pine, Musk and Juniper.

Thank God!
Review by Sara A. on 3 Mar 2023 review stating Thank God!
I got this for free as a sample and HAD to buy more! I wasn't sure if I'd like it or not, but after trying it, I now know I CANNOT live without it. I only need it once a week, but as long as they don't ever change the formula, I'll keep buying it! It's great for a once a week clean out of my hair before shampooing. I know it says to use in place of shampoo, but I use it before using my regular shampoo anyway, and my hair is just fine. I just use extra conditioner. I LOVE the way my hair feels after. Nice and soft and clean. GREAT STUFF!

My hairdresser recommended this cleanser
Review by ameliarosenman@gmail.com R. on 22 Dec 2022 review stating My hairdresser recommended this cleanser
My hairdresser recommended this cleanser because I swim in a chlorinated pool almost every day. Compared to no poo, which I have used for years, I find this cleanser makes my hair feel tougher and stringier and require a lot more conditioner.

Effective but heavy scent
Review by Crystal W. on 30 Sep 2022 review stating Effective but heavy scent
Buildup Buster does what it claims to do: it removes product build-up from your hair follicles effectively! However, it is heavily scented. I wish it was available in an unscented option.
