  • Either washing-up liquid for a massively heavy buildup or Vosene - but be warned, both will strip colour!

    Yep, I use the green fairy (other WUL make my hair really knotty)
    That clarifies well without drying my hair out.

    But it does strip colour.

    I used my new Elvive mousse-type shampoo this morning, and things are back to normal, thank goodness.

    Glad to hear things are back to normal - I was just going to ask if it was the hairbrush needing a wash as that's happened to me once or twice.

    Fairy Liquid is fantastic. Always wash out the hair dye with it as, yes, it does strip colour but as I dye my greys with the darkest brown I can find, the FL doesn't affect it, only removes the excess dye.

    Also clean my bathroom with FL and use it on stains on clothes/linen.

    So I heartily recommend using FL to remove build up - much more MSE than specialist clarifying shampoos.
