1.Apple Cider Vinegar Rinse

Use this easy recipe to get rid of that icky residue left behind by butters and styling creams which can cause the hair to look dull over time.

8 oz applicator bottle | 2-3 oz of ACV | warm water | essential oil(s)- Optional

Fill your bottle with ACV, the rest with water. Add a few drops of your essential oils of choice.Shake it up, massage it in, let it sit for a few minutes and rinse well with cool water. Apple Cider Vinegar   also closes the hair cuticle to promote smoother, shinier hair and will help balance the pH of the hair and scalp. Take care not to get this in your eyes, it burns! The smell may linger when wet but will dissipate as your hair dries.that hair will be squeaky clean after one use of this .

It doesn't work for everyone but a little try doesn't hurt ....

 2.Baking Soda Rinse

This clarifying potion will get rid of that nasty residue without making the hair feel stripped. I especially like to use this rinse to remove buildup when I’m wearing protective styles like braids or twists.

spray bottle | one (1) tbsp. baking soda |1.5 cups of warm water

Place your ingredients in the bottle and shake it up well. If your hair is long or really thick, feel free to double the ingredients but don’t add more baking soda unless you add more water. The mixture should be liquidity, not chalky . Spray onto the scalp and hair, massage it in, leave on for about three minutes then rinse thoroughly.

3.Rhassoul Clay

You may need to head to a specialty or health food store for this one. Rhassoul is a mineral-rich, natural clay that has been used for centuries to enhance texture and volume, soften the hair and eliminate dandruff. Not only does it safely clarify the hair and scalp but it also detoxifies.

What I love about all of these options is that they’re natural, quick and they get the job done without making your hair feel dry in the process. While the hair is deeply cleansed and clarified, the moisture is left intact. 

4.Fresh Rosemary

Fresh Rosemary Boiled in water for 10 mins... let cool use in hair for your final rinse  Rosemary is a excellent Clarifiers because they are known to nourish the hair follicles and stimulate hair growth.

5. Coconut Water 

Coconut water  is really good  did you know 100 percent coconut water contains vitamins such as C,B1,B2,B3,B5,B6 and Amino Acids and Antioxidants ...pure beauty when it comes to clarifying your hair  use it warm water  and goddess hair in the works..

I Also heard that vodka can be great clarifier if you have Braids and Locs people. so any saved vodka use it.Vodka detoxes hair and scalp, thoroughly removing product buildup and minerals from hard water. Vodka also acts as a disinfectant on the scalp, killing off fungus and bacteria that may be slowing hair growth or creating itchy dry scalps and dandruff. Your hair will be shinier and bouncier as well.

Simply add 2 tablespoons or so of your favorite vodka to your regular shampoo and wash hair normally. Follow up with a good quality moisturizing conditioner, then style.

after using one of these clarifiers  use.....

• Aloe Vera juice can also be used as an acidic rinse (some people prefer it to vinegar because of the vinegar smell). Mix 2 tablespoons of aloe juice into 2 cups of water and use as a final rinse to clarify hair after shampooing.
