If you’re dealing with an itchy, dry, flaky scalp, dandruff, or product buildup, your shampoo may not be cleansing your scalp properly.

Shateria Beauty’s Apple Cider Vinegar & Aloe Vera Clarifying Shampoo gently removes buildup while restoring balance to the scalp—without stripping your natural oils. Designed for curly hair and locs, it leaves your hair feeling clean, refreshed, and hydrated.

WHAT IT DOES

This clarifying shampoo helps to:

  • Remove product buildup and excess oil

  • Soothe itchy, irritated scalp

  • Reduce flakes and dandruff

  • Cleanse without drying out hair

  • Restore scalp balance using apple cider vinegar

  • Leave curls soft, defined, and refreshed

  • Helps detox locs by removing buildup and impurities without leaving residue

Why It Works

Apple cider vinegar helps balance the scalp’s pH and remove buildup that can clog hair follicles. Combined with hydrating ingredients, this formula cleanses deeply while maintaining moisture with aloe vera making it ideal for textured hair.

What Makes This Different

Unlike harsh clarifying shampoos that strip your hair, this formula uses apple cider vinegar and gentle cleansers to remove buildup while keeping your hair hydrated—making it ideal for curls and locs.

WHO IT’S FOR

One of the few clarifying shampoos designed for both curls and locs without stripping moisture.

Perfect for natural hair, curls, and locs, especially if you have:

  • Itchy or flaky scalp

  • Dandruff or buildup

  • Dry curls that need a reset

  • Locs that need a deep cleanse

  • Sensitive scalp

How to Use on Curls

  • For best results on curly hair, focus on cleansing the scalp while maintaining moisture:
    Section hair and apply shampoo directly to the scalp

  • Gently massage to lift buildup and cleanse the roots

  • Work the shampoo through the length of your hair

  • Rinse thoroughly

  • Repeat the process — the second wash will produce more lather, indicating a deeper cleanse

*Low lather on the first wash is normal. As buildup is removed, you’ll notice more foam on the second wash.

*We use plant-based cleansers and do not include synthetic foam boosters, so your hair is being cleansed without harsh stripping.

How to Use on Locs (Soak Method)

For a deeper cleanse, use this loc soak method to help remove buildup from within the hair:

  • Shampoo your scalp first and rinse thoroughly

  • Fill a bowl or basin with warm water

  • Add a small amount of shampoo and mix gently

  • Submerge your locs and allow them to soak for 10–15 minutes

  • Gently squeeze the locs to release buildup

  • Rinse thoroughly until water runs clear

*This method helps remove buildup, refresh locs, and support a clean, healthy scalp without leaving residue.
