15 Clean Hair Products That Actually Work

While “clean” beauty is all the rage, clean haircare has been a bit slower to get off the ground. For a long time, it has been hard to find clean haircare that actually worked, but thankfully, the haircare industry seems to be hitting its stride. If you’re looking to remove all the toxins and icky ingredients that come with beauty and hair products, you’ll definitely want to try out these clean hair products that actually work.

Kristin Ess Deep Treatment Mask

We love Kristin Ess’s hair products, but now they’re even better that they’re in the clean beauty section!
