Fekkai Apple Cider Detox Rinse clarifying hair rinse — 8.5 oz, sulfate- and paraben-free, detangles & adds shine

This lightweight liquid rinse blends apple cider vinegar with botanical extracts to gently clarify the scalp and hair shaft. Formulated to lift product residue, excess oil, and dead skin cells, it rebalances hair texture while conditioning to reduce mechanical breakage. The rinse is vegan, cruelty-free, and safe for color- and keratin-treated hair, making it an easy add-on to weekly or as-needed hair care routines.

How does this rinse remove buildup without over-drying?

The formula pairs apple cider vinegar with salicylic acid and conditioning botanicals to break down residues while maintaining moisture. Rather than stripping oils, it clarifies the scalp and smooths the hair cuticle for improved manageability and shine.

• Apple cider vinegar helps lift product and mineral buildup gently.
• Salicylic acid dissolves stubborn dead skin cells on the scalp.
• Conditioning agents detangle and reduce mechanical breakage during combing.

Will it work on color-treated or keratin-treated hair?

Yes—this rinse was formulated to be safe for color and keratin treatments while still delivering clarifying benefits. It avoids harsh sulfates and silicones that can accelerate color fade or interfere with smoothing treatments.

• Free from sulfates, silicones, parabens and phthalates.
• Vegan and cruelty-free ingredients that respect salon treatments.
• Rinses cleanly, minimizing drag on treated hair when detangling.

What active botanicals and actives are included, and what do they do?

The rinse combines apple cider vinegar with ginger and amla extracts to rebalance the scalp and fortify hair fibers. These ingredients work together to soothe, deliver amino acids, and add antioxidant support without aggressive surfactants.

• Ginger extract supplies amino acids and supports overall hair strength.
• Amla fruit extract helps rebalance and replenish scalp and strand health.
• Apple cider vinegar and salicylic acid clarify and refresh the scalp surface.

How should I use the Apple Cider Detox Rinse in my routine?

Use as a weekly clarifying step or whenever hair feels weighed down by styling products or excess oil. Apply after shampoo, distribute through wet hair, let sit briefly, then rinse thoroughly; follow with conditioner if needed for softness.

• Apply to clean, wet hair after shampooing for best penetration.
• Leave on for a short period—enough to dissolve buildup—then rinse well.
• Use 1–2 times weekly or as required based on styling frequency.

Who is this for: The Fekkai Apple Cider Detox Rinse is ideal for anyone who wants a non-stripping clarifier that also conditions—people with fine-to-thick textures, those who use multiple styling products, and clients with color or keratin treatments. If your scalp feels congested, your hair lacks shine, or you want to extend the life of salon services without aggressive detergents, this rinse offers a balanced refresh that targets buildup while preserving manageability and gloss.
