I like this one for a lighter, fresher-feeling wash. It is a fortifying shampoo made to cleanse oily hair while helping strengthen weakened hair.
Genesis Bain Hydra-Fortifiant Shampoo for Oily Hair
I save this one for a deeper reset when buildup makes hair feel dull. It is a clarifying shampoo made to remove buildup and detoxify hair and scalp.
Detox Clarifying Hair Shampoo
I reach for this one when roots feel greasy but ends still need care. It is a balancing shampoo made to cleanse oily roots while hydrating dry lengths.
Specifique Bain Divalent Shampoo for Greasy Hair
