Great, Does the Job
SERIOUSLY removes buildup! I have color treated hair and I didn't notice any extreme stripping either. My hair was so clean and soft after. This is great stuff, wish I could use it more often. The scent is also subtle and pleasant. Not super flowery and girly but also not manly.

Godsend for oily postpartum hair
Love this! I was really struggling with oiliness in my scalp during postpartum, and I read that trying a clarifying shampoo could help. Well this definitely has done the trick! I typically use it once a week and it has helped the greasy/waxy feeling in my hair go away!

SOOO GOOD, I NEED THE NORMAL OR BULK SIZE NEXT TIME!
I’ve only used this clarifying shampoo twice so far but I definitely have seen and felt a difference. It leaves my hair and scalp feeling sooo nice and clean and i love how it smells. I’ve never used a clarifying shampoo before and i received this mini as a free item. i’m genuinely sooo glad to have received and be able to try it out though!

Only used once but hair is softer
This was my first time trying Odele so I did the whole curls system - shampoo, conditioner, leave in, cream and foam. Absolutely loving everything! My hair feels softer, less frizz, and it’s all clean products! Will definitely be buying again!

It says clarifying, but
This did not clarify my hair very well. I appreciate the plant-based shampoo, but did not give my hair that slick I want after clarifying.

Do not buy!!!! You will lose your hair!!!
This product will break your hair off. I really wish I looked at the bad reviews before using it. I don't understand how a company keeps selling a product when so many people are experiencing hair loss. It takes years to grow hair. Something needs to be done about this. It's different ethnic groups and different ages. It's the product. The carelessness of this company is unacceptable. I don't care if you tested it at a third party lab. Mine and other's hair is falling out in clumps!!!!! That's the results. We, the customer, have no idea what testing was done. We trusted you to protect our hair and help us with our hair journey. Post the lab testing and results. Name the lab. Do something. People are losing their hair! I stopped using the product and my hair is still falling out.

FINALLY found my perfect shampoo
I can only use fragrance free products but also need something strong enough to clean my buildup as I use serums and such AND FINALLY I found this Odele brand. Granted it does smell like cucumber with lemon, slightly burnt but its incredibly subtle and the slight smell immediately washes out. It genuinely cleans my hair, its perfect! As it is a deep cleanse I use it once a week and then use the other odele shampoo in between, which is also perfect. I stock up during targets beauty sales so the price is great too!
