Effective scalp cleanser!
Review by Laurenwright2007@gmail.com W. on 13 Nov 2024 review stating Effective scalp cleanser!
This build up buster is wonderful. I use it once every two weeks or so to thoroughly cleanse my scalp and get rid of product buildup. It helps to reset my scalp so my curls can continue to flourish and curl properly.

Effective!
Review by Mariah B. on 8 Mar 2024 review stating Effective!
I have an oily scalp. I only wash my hair a couple times a week and get an itchy scalp from the old oil building up and solidifying. This clears it out well. The only thing I don't care for is how much I have to scrub in and scrub out, because my arms/hands get tired. Definitely use it with conditioner at least every other time you use it.

Seems to work well, I find the fragrance too strong
Review by Amberlee G. on 3 Jul 2023 review stating Seems to work well, I find the fragrance too strong
Works well, I also got the hypoallergenic non-fragranced no-poo and conditioner, and I much prefer the no fragrance to the strength of this fragrance, although I'm sure that's a personal preference.

Blind eye purchase
Review by MusMuva on 27 Jun 2023 review stating Blind eye purchase
I went to ulta on a search for a really good clarifying shampoo (I have mielle’s clarifying but wanted something new) honestly deva curl was my last choice but I got it due to my intuition. Listen ! After 3 weeks of braids with a horrible product buildup. I washed my hair twice with the shampoo my scalp looks so clean and new I’m very pleased with how it cleansed my scalp and then the definition of my waves/curls!!! I’m sold 🩵
