What does clarifying shampoo do?

  1. Conditions the hair

  2. Contains natural oils

  3. Contains an active chelating agent that removes metals

  4. Balances hair pH

The correct answer is: Contains an active chelating agent that removes metals

Clarifying shampoo does not condition the hair or contain natural oils. It also does not specifically balance the pH of the hair. Clarifying shampoo contains an active chelating agent, which is a chemical that binds to and removes build-up from metals on the hair and scalp. This allows for a deep and thorough cleanse, making it a useful tool for removing product build-up, chlorine from swimming pools, and hard water minerals.
