ACT+ACRE Cold Processed Clarifying Hard Water Shampoo | Mineral Build-Up Removal, Vitamin C Cleanse, Color Safe & Vegan | 10 fl oz

Detox Your Hair from Hard Water

Many homes rely on tap water that carries minerals and chlorine. Over time, these elements can leave hair feeling dull, weighed down, and in need of a refresh. ACT+ACRE's Cold Processed Clarifying Hard Water Shampoo is designed to gently detox strands and scalp without stripping essential moisture. The formula targets mineral buildup, eliminates chlorine, and lifts away product residue, delivering a cleaner, more breathable feel from the very first wash. The Cold Processed method helps preserve potency so active ingredients stay effective wash after wash.

Two powerful ingredients drive its performance: Fulvic Acid and Carrot Seed Oil. Fulvic Acid acts as a lightweight antioxidant, helping to break down buildup while inviting a spectrum of minerals to rebalance the scalp microbiome. Carrot Seed Oil provides nourishment and protection against dryness, contributing to a more resilient feel after cleansing. A 3% Coconut Cleanser gently lifts away buildup and helps prevent future residue, leaving hair soft, light, and restored. The result is a clean, hydrated scalp and noticeably shinier, more voluminous hair from the first wash.

In practice, the formula is designed for regular use so your scalp can feel clear and balanced after each wash. It is crafted to support texture and movement, helping strands feel smooth rather than tight after cleansing. The product is vegan, cruelty-free, and free from harsh sulfates and silicones, while remaining safe for color-treated hair. This plant-powered approach respects hair health and the environment.
