Maple Holistics Rosemary Tea Tree Mint Clarifying Shampoo — 8 oz, Sulfate & Paraben Free with Cooling Peppermint

Maple Holistics Rosemary Tea Tree Mint Shampoo is a sulfate- and paraben-free clarifying shampoo that uses rosemary, tea tree, and peppermint oils to deeply cleanse the scalp, reduce buildup, and soothe flakes.

This 8 oz clarifying shampoo blends pure rosemary and tea tree essential oils with peppermint to lift residues, refresh the scalp, and leave hair manageable without harsh sulfates. It’s formulated for regular use on oily, product-build-up, or flaking scalps and is marketed for both men and women who want a more natural, invigorating cleanse.

How does this shampoo remove buildup without harsh detergents?

The formula relies on botanical oils and gentle surfactants to dissolve and lift residues rather than strong sulfates. Tea tree and peppermint provide a clarifying, cooling sensation while rosemary supports scalp circulation for a cleaner-feeling wash. The result is a refreshed scalp and softer hair without stripping natural moisture.

• Tea tree essential oil targets residues and excess oils.
• Peppermint delivers a cooling, clarifying sensation.
• Gentle surfactants cleanse without aggressive stripping.
• Rosemary helps support scalp health and manageability.

Will this help flaking and an itchy scalp?

The shampoo is designed to soothe and refresh scalps that experience flaking or itch caused by buildup and dryness. Tea tree oil has a long reputation as a clarifying botanical and peppermint calms discomfort with a cooling effect. Consistent use can reduce visible flakes when paired with a moisturizing routine.

• Tea tree for clarifying and scalp comfort.
• Peppermint soothes and cools itchy sensations.
• Sulfate-free base helps retain scalp moisture.
• Suitable for repeated weekly use to control buildup.

How should I use it to get the best results?

Apply to wet hair, massage thoroughly into the scalp for at least 60 seconds to loosen buildup, then rinse. For heavier residue or styling-product buildup, repeat one more time. Follow with a lightweight conditioner focusing on mid-lengths and ends if your scalp tends to be dry.

• Massage into wet scalp for deep cleansing.
• Repeat for stubborn buildup or frequent styling product use.
• Rinse well and condition mid-lengths and ends only.
• Use 1–3 times weekly depending on oiliness and buildup.

Is this shampoo safe for color-treated or sensitive scalps?

The sulfate-free formula is gentler than traditional clarifying shampoos, making it more compatible with color-treated hair and sensitive scalps than harsh detergents. However, those with very sensitive skin or recent chemical treatments should patch-test first or consult a stylist. It’s free of parabens and strong sulfates, emphasizing botanical cleansers.

• Sulfate- and paraben-free to reduce aggressive stripping.
• Botanical essential oils instead of harsh chemicals.
• Patch-test recommended for very sensitive scalps.
• Color-safe for many users, but verify with your stylist.

Who this is for: This shampoo suits people seeking a natural-feeling clarifier—those with oily roots, frequent product use, or occasional flaking who want an invigorating, plant-based cleanse. It’s a good choice for men and women who prefer sulfate-free care and enjoy the cooling aroma of peppermint and the herbal notes of rosemary and tea tree. If you need an everyday moisturizing shampoo rather than a clarifying treatment, consider alternating this product with a milder, hydrating formula.
