A natural detox shampoo for a fresher clean
Hair can collect excess oil, styling-product residue and environmental impurities that can leave it looking dull or feeling heavy. Detox Shampoo - Clary Sage provides a thorough botanical cleanse designed especially for normal to oily hair.
Our concentrated formula combines saponified plant oils with essential oils to lift away everyday buildup while helping maintain the hair and scalp's natural moisture. Instead of leaving hair feeling heavily coated, it rinses clean for a softer, lighter and refreshed finish.
Why clary sage belongs in your hair care routine
Clary sage essential oil gives Detox Shampoo - Clary Sage its distinctive herbal character. It is used in the formula to complement the shampoo's cleansing action and help leave an oily scalp feeling fresh and balanced.
Clary sage is paired with rosemary, grapefruit and carrot seed essential oils for a fresh botanical blend. These ingredients work alongside nourishing plant oils rather than relying solely on conventional synthetic cleansing agents.
Clean hair without the heavy feeling
Remove buildup while maintaining moisture
A deep-cleaning shampoo should remove what you do not want without leaving your hair feeling unnecessarily dry. Detox Shampoo - Clary Sage uses saponified oils of coconut, extra virgin olive, apricot kernel, castor, avocado, palm fruit, jojoba and sweet almond to provide cleansing action while contributing beneficial fatty acids and emollient properties.
This balance makes the shampoo particularly useful when your hair feels weighed down by oil or accumulated hair products. After rinsing, hair feels cleaner and lighter while botanical oils help support softness and manageability.
Detox shampoo vs. regular shampoo
What's the difference?
Regular shampoo is typically designed primarily for routine cleansing. A detox or clarifying shampoo places greater emphasis on removing accumulated oils, residue and product buildup.
Detox Shampoo - Clary Sage bridges the two approaches. It offers a deeper botanical cleanse while using a blend of plant-derived oils that helps prevent hair from feeling excessively stripped after washing.
If you use styling products regularly or your hair tends to become oily and heavy between washes, periodically incorporating a detox shampoo can provide the more thorough cleanse your routine may need.
A concentrated formula that goes a long way
Start with only a small amount
Detox Shampoo - Clary Sage is highly concentrated, so more shampoo does not necessarily mean cleaner hair. Start with approximately 1/4 teaspoon and adjust according to your hair's thickness and length.
Wet your hair thoroughly before application. Work the shampoo through wet hair and gently massage it into the scalp and hair until a lather develops. Rinse thoroughly. One application is generally sufficient.
Who is Detox Shampoo - Clary Sage for?
Especially suited to normal and oily hair
We recommend Detox Shampoo - Clary Sage for people whose hair or scalp tends to accumulate excess oil or product residue. It can also be useful when hair begins to feel heavy, coated or less manageable because of buildup.
People with particularly dry hair or a dry scalp may prefer to use a detox shampoo less frequently and follow cleansing with an appropriate moisturizing hair treatment.
Ingredients
Filtered water
Forms the liquid base of the formula and allows the cleansing oils, essential oils and other ingredients to be distributed throughout the shampoo.
Saponified coconut oil
Coconut oil naturally contains a high concentration of lauric acid, along with capric and caprylic fatty acids. Once saponified, it provides effective cleansing and lathering action that helps lift excess oils and residue from the hair and scalp.
Saponified extra virgin olive oil
Olive oil is naturally rich in oleic acid and also contains smaller amounts of linoleic and palmitic acids, plus antioxidant compounds such as polyphenols and vitamin E. It is included to provide gentle cleansing while contributing emollient properties that help hair feel softer.
Saponified apricot kernel oil
Apricot kernel oil contains oleic and linoleic fatty acids and naturally occurring vitamin E. Its lightweight emollient character helps support softness without creating an unnecessarily heavy feel, making it a useful complement to the cleansing oils.
Saponified castor oil
Castor oil is distinguished by its high ricinoleic acid content. In a saponified cleanser, it contributes to lather and cleansing while helping support a conditioned feel.
Saponified avocado oil
Avocado oil supplies oleic and linoleic fatty acids and naturally occurring vitamin E, carotenoids and plant sterols. We use it to complement the cleansing ingredients with nourishing lipids that help maintain softness.
Saponified palm fruit oil
Palm fruit oil naturally provides palmitic and oleic acids as well as vitamin E compounds, including tocopherols and tocotrienols. Once saponified, it contributes cleansing power, stability and a creamy lather.
Saponified jojoba oil
Jojoba is technically a liquid wax rather than a traditional triglyceride oil. It contains long-chain wax esters that resemble components found in natural skin and scalp sebum. It is included to support gentle cleansing and a balanced, conditioned feel.
Saponified sweet almond oil
Sweet almond oil is naturally rich in oleic and linoleic acids and contains vitamin E. It contributes emollient properties that help keep cleansed hair feeling smooth and manageable.
Carrot seed essential oil
Carrot seed essential oil contains aromatic compounds including carotol and other sesquiterpenes. We use it as part of the botanical essential-oil blend to complement scalp cleansing and provide an earthy herbal character.
Clary sage essential oil
Clary sage contains aromatic compounds such as linalyl acetate and linalool. As one of the defining botanicals in Detox Shampoo - Clary Sage, it helps provide the formula's fresh herbal aroma and supports a refreshed, balanced-feeling scalp.
Grapefruit essential oil
Grapefruit essential oil is naturally rich in limonene, an aromatic terpene common to citrus peels. It contributes a bright citrus aroma while complementing the shampoo's fresh, clean character.
Rosemary essential oil
Rosemary essential oil contains naturally occurring aromatic compounds such as 1,8-cineole, alpha-pinene and camphor, with exact composition varying by plant source. It is included to complement the cleansing formula and provide an invigorating herbal aroma and refreshed scalp feel.
Vegetable glycerin
Glycerin is a humectant that attracts and holds water. We include it to help support moisture retention and counterbalance the drying feel that can sometimes follow a thorough cleanse.
Organic preservative
Helps protect the water-based formula from microbial contamination and maintain product quality during normal storage and use.
Citric acid
Citric acid is an alpha-hydroxy acid naturally found in citrus fruits. In shampoo formulas, it is primarily used to adjust and maintain the product's pH rather than to exfoliate the scalp.
A cleaner approach to hair cleansing
What you won't find in the formula
Detox Shampoo - Clary Sage is formulated without SLS, DEA, propylene glycol or isopropyl alcohol. Instead, its cleansing system centers on saponified botanical oils complemented by essential oils, glycerin and citric acid.
The result is a concentrated plant-based shampoo for people who want effective cleansing without making conventional detergent-based formulas the center of their hair care routine.
Detox Shampoo - Clary Sage vs. Shampoo + Body Bar - Juniper & Peppermint
Choose your cleanser based on your routine
Both products offer plant-based cleansing, but they serve different purposes.
Choose Detox Shampoo - Clary Sage when your primary goal is a dedicated liquid hair cleanser for normal to oily hair. Its clary sage formula is designed to remove excess oil and accumulated hair-product residue while leaving the scalp refreshed.
Choose Dherbs' Shampoo + Body Bar - Juniper & Peppermint when you want the convenience of one solid product for both hair and body. Its compact format also makes it particularly useful for travel or the gym.
For a dedicated at-home hair routine, Detox Shampoo - Clary Sage provides the more specialized shampoo experience. For portability and multipurpose cleansing, the Shampoo + Body Bar offers greater convenience.
Complete your hair and scalp routine
Follow cleansing with botanical moisture
Cleansing removes excess oil and buildup, but some hair types benefit from replenishing moisture afterward. For additional botanical conditioning, pair Detox Shampoo - Clary Sage with our Hair & Scalp Oil.
Detox Shampoo - Clary Sage focuses on cleansing and refreshing the hair and scalp, while Hair & Scalp Oil is formulated with argan, jojoba, sesame, walnut and essential oils to moisturize and help maintain softness and shine.
Rather than performing the same job, the two products can complement each other: cleanse first, then add botanical moisture as needed.
How to use
Get an effective cleanse with a small amount
Wet hair thoroughly.
Place approximately 1/4 teaspoon of Detox Shampoo - Clary Sage into your hand. Adjust the amount as necessary for the length and thickness of your hair.
Apply to wet hair and gently massage through the scalp and hair to create a lather. Rinse thoroughly until clean.
Because the formula is highly concentrated, one application is generally sufficient.
If you color your hair, we recommend using the shampoo one day before coloring and waiting two weeks after coloring before using it again.
