Kristin Ess Clarifying Shampoo & Conditioner Set — 10oz Deep Clean for Oily, Buildup-Prone Hair, Sulfate-Free, Color-Safe

Kristin Ess Deep Clean Clarifying Shampoo and Conditioner Set is a two-step detox that removes oil and buildup while restoring softness and manageability without stripping color or keratin treatments.

This clarifying duo is formulated to reset hair and scalp when oils, hard-water minerals, and styling residue weigh strands down. The shampoo purifies roots and lifts buildup while remaining gentle; the conditioner reintroduces moisture, detangles, and smooths for shine and easier styling. Together they offer a balanced clean that works across textures and treated hair, making weekly or occasional clarifying simple and safe.

How does this set clear buildup without over-drying hair?

The shampoo uses cleansing agents selected to remove excess oil and product residue while avoiding harsh sulfates that can strip natural moisture. It targets impurities at the scalp and along the lengths, then the conditioner returns hydration and slip to prevent tangles and brittleness. The result is a refreshed feel without the tight, brittle finish common to heavy clarifiers.

• Deep-cleansing shampoo lifts oils and hard-water residues.
• Sulfate-free formula reduces risk of overdrying or fading color.
• Conditioner delivers moisture and smoothing agents after cleansing.
• Safe for keratin- or color-treated hair—balanced cleansing and care.

Will this work for my hair type and styling routine?

This set is designed for a wide range of hair textures—fine to thick, straight to curly—and for those who use multiple styling products. The shampoo helps restore natural volume at the roots, while the conditioner smooths and detangles mid-lengths to ends. It’s suitable for weekly clarifying, an occasional reset, or whenever buildup affects shine and manageability.

• Fine hair: lifts roots for natural volume without residue.
• Thick or textured hair: removes buildup while maintaining moisture.
• Styling product users: clears residues that dull shine and weigh hair down.
• Color- and keratin-treated hair: gentle enough for treated strands.

How should I use the shampoo and conditioner for best results?

Use the clarifying shampoo on wet hair, massaging into the scalp to dissolve oils and product films, then rinse thoroughly. Apply the conditioner mid-length to ends, detangle gently with fingers or a wide-tooth comb, then rinse for a smooth finish. For heavy buildup, repeat the shampoo once; otherwise, use as a weekly or as-needed reset.

• Step 1: Wet hair and massage shampoo into scalp; rinse completely.
• Step 2: Apply conditioner to lengths and ends; comb through and rinse.
• Frequency: weekly or whenever hair feels weighed down by product/oil.
• Repeat shampoo once for stubborn buildup; follow with conditioner each time.

What safety and ingredient considerations should I know?

The Kristin Ess set is formulated without sulfates, parabens, phthalates, silicones, and is cruelty-free and vegan. It’s designed to be color- and keratin-safe, minimizing the risk of fading or compromising professional smoothing treatments. While gentle, always patch-test new products if you have a sensitive scalp or allergy concerns.

• Sulfate-free cleansing to protect moisture and color.
• Free from parabens, phthalates, and silicones; vegan and cruelty-free.
• Suitable for chemically treated hair when used as directed.
• Patch-test recommended for sensitive skin or allergy history.

Who is this for: This duo is ideal for anyone who wants a thorough yet gentle reset—people with oily roots, frequent styling-product users, swimmers or hard-water-exposed hair, and those with color or keratin treatments who need clarifying without harsh stripping. Use it as a weekly detox or whenever your hair needs a clean, lightweight reboot and renewed softness.
