GIRL+HAIR CLEAR+ Apple Cider Vinegar Rinse 10.1 fl oz — Clarifying ACV Formula, Sulfate & Paraben-Free for Shine & Scalp Health

G+H CLEAR+ Apple Cider Vinegar Rinse is a clarifying scalp and hair rinse that removes product buildup, refreshes the scalp, and helps restore shine and manageability without stripping natural oils.

Formulated for weekly or as-needed use, this apple cider vinegar (ACV) rinse combines ACV with rice water proteins and castor oil to clarify, detangle, and support healthier-feeling hair. It’s free from sulfates and parabens and safe for color-treated, relaxed, or chemically processed hair, as well as protective styles like braids and extensions.

How does this rinse remove buildup without drying my hair?

The ACV in the formula gently dissolves residue from styling products, silicones, and minerals that collect on the scalp and hair shaft. Rice water proteins and castor oil help maintain moisture and elasticity so hair doesn’t feel stripped after use.

• Apple cider vinegar clarifies by breaking down deposits on scalp and strands.
• Rice water proteins support hair strength and improve combability.
• Castor oil helps seal moisture at the roots to reduce breakage.
• Use 1–2 times weekly to avoid over-cleansing and preserve natural oils.

Can it help with dandruff, itchiness, or a flaky scalp?

This rinse works as a mild scalp exfoliant: the ACV helps rebalance pH and loosen flakes while the soothing base reduces irritation. It can ease itching between washes when used as directed, but it’s not a medical treatment for severe conditions.

• Restores scalp pH to discourage flaking and itchiness.
• Promotes gentle exfoliation to remove dead skin and buildup.
• Suitable for sensitive scalps—free from sulfates, parabens, phthalates, and artificial dyes.
• Safe to use with eczema or psoriasis-prone skin, though consult a dermatologist for severe concerns.

Will this product affect color-treated or chemically processed hair?

G+H CLEAR+ is formulated to be safe on color-treated, relaxed, and processed hair. Because it doesn’t rely on harsh sulfates, it clarifies without aggressively stripping dye, while rice proteins and oils help preserve strand integrity.

• Sulfate- and paraben-free to minimize color fade from harsh detergents.
• Helpful for cleaning around extensions, weaves, and protective styles.
• Can be used on chemically treated hair when applied 1–2 times per week.
• Rinse thoroughly and follow with conditioner if desired for extra moisture.

How do I use the ACV rinse for best results?

Apply the rinse to wet hair, focusing on the scalp, massage gently to lift buildup, then leave for a minute before rinsing. Use it as a clarifying step between regular shampooing—once or twice weekly depending on product use and scalp needs.

• Wet hair thoroughly before applying to ensure even distribution.
• Massage into scalp for 30–60 seconds to stimulate follicles and break down residue.
• Rinse completely; follow with conditioner or a leave-in for dry ends.
• Use weekly or every other week for maintenance; increase with heavy product use.

Who is this for: G+H CLEAR+ Apple Cider Vinegar Rinse is designed for anyone looking to remove product buildup, refresh a flaky or itchy scalp, and restore shine—whether you have natural, relaxed, color-treated, or extension-enhanced hair. It’s especially useful for people who use styling products frequently, wear protective styles, or want a gentle clarifying treatment that preserves moisture and manageability.
