What type of shampoo is best for oily hair?

Moisturizing shampoo
Clarifying shampoo
Deep conditioning shampoo
Color-protecting shampoo

The correct answer is: Clarifying shampoo

Clarifying shampoo is specifically formulated to remove excess oil, product buildup, and impurities from the hair and scalp. This type of shampoo contains stronger cleansing agents that can effectively strip away residues that regular shampoos may leave behind, making it ideal for those with oily hair. Using a clarifying shampoo can help restore balance to oily hair by cutting through the greasiness, allowing the hair to feel cleaner and more refreshed. It is especially useful for individuals who frequently use hair products, as these can contribute to buildup over time. Moisturizing shampoos, deep conditioning shampoos, and color-protecting shampoos are generally designed with the goal of adding moisture, protecting color-treated hair, or providing additional nourishment, which may not effectively address the specific needs of oily hair. Therefore, they may not provide the deep cleansing necessary for someone struggling with excess oil.
