The pros and cons of the Neutrogena Anti-Residue Shampoo Last, see the water content.

This EWG-certified Shampoo is sulfate-free, non-GMO, vegan-friendly, biodegradable, and free from synthetic fragrances and parabens that can cause irritation and health risks.

In our post-Anti-Residue Shampoo journey, there comes a point where we must move on. Afterall, we still have to wash our locs! So in my research, I found a few alternatives that people like and some that I found to try myself. Ultimately, I looked for similar products at a decent price point, with good clarifying capabilities and yet were gentle enough for frequent use. Cons: Can take roughly six washes to see results, made specifically to remove L’Oreal Colorista Semi-Permanent colors, can bleach hair, doesn’t lather well It uses gentle cleansing and hydrating ingredients like Coconut water and Argan oil to detoxify the scalp of impurities and moisturize the hair simultaneously. The Head & Shoulder Supreme Detox & Hydrate Shampoo is free of potential irritants like Parabens, Phosphates, Dyes, Ethanol, and Phthalates. Sad news for Neutrogena lovers, but unfortunately Neutrogena Anti-Residue Shampoo has been officially discontinued. While no case has been filed against Neutrogena regarding DMDM hydantoin, in December 2020 a lawsuit was filed by two women ( Lipetz et al v. Unilever United States, Inc. et al). In it they (and others that joined the class action lawsuit) claimed that DMDM hydantoin could cause hair loss and Unilever (corporation that owns TRESemmé) didn’t disclose this on relevant TRESemmé product(s). Later in 2021, Johnson & Johnson (the parent company of Neutrogena) was sued over DMDM hydantoin in other brand lines (namely OGX Beauty) in a similar lawsuit. Please note that there are no studies linking DMDM hydantoin to hair loss or thinning in the concentrations used in cosmetics. It is a possibility, but nothing has been proven to say isn’t safe.

Neutrogena’s Anti-Residue Shampoo was specifically created to help rid your hair of product buildup and other impurities for a thorough and refreshing cleanse. I highly recommend using Ionic soft bonnet dread dryers, especially if you wash your hair in the evenings to prevent going to bed with semi wet dreads. This shampoo is great for those who need to get rid of a lot of residue. With its combination of exfoliating agents and gentle surfactants, it leaves hair several shades lighter after just one use. Your average clarifying shampoo will contain two key ingredients: a chelating agent and a surfactant, or cleaning agent. Chelating agents help cleanse the hair of minerals and built-up residue, as they “latch onto metal ions and draw them out of the hair,” Jamie Rosen Manning, MD, FAAD, tells SELF. The surfactant you'll find in a clarifying shampoo will likely be a sulfate (which is what makes most shampoos lather and generate suds), and they help attract and rinse away oil, Dr. Manning explains.

Many experts have argued that the Neutrogena Anti-residue Shampoo, which has been already discontinued, contains formaldehyde and is therefore unsafe for human use. Whether you wear it as an appreciation of the Rastafari movement, for religious beliefs, or simply to protect your natural hair, I personally think locs are really cool. Table originally as of 8/21/2022 of Neutrogena Shampoos, Updated 9/21/2023 Other Reasons Why The Anti-Residue Shampoo was Discontinued?It’s important to follow a scalp detox and cleansing routine to ensure there is optimal sebum production. Because excess sebum can also cause bacterial growth leading to a smelly scalp. However, in some cases, products may be discontinued because a newer version has replaced them or because the company has decided to focus on other products instead.
