Malibu C Hard Water Wellness Shampoo - Hydrating, Sulfate-Free Hair Care for Hard Water - Removes Minerals and Buildup (9 oz)

Great hard water chelating shampoo! Removes mineral deposits that cause chemically processed or chlorine damaged hair to become brittle & split. It also helps smooth the cuticle of the hair shaft, improving smooth texture & shininess. It also makes hair less tangly & "sticky" when it's wet, giving it better slip when combing it out after a wash. I used it all up & will reorder. I use it regularly, about one every week or so. It does what it is supposed to do, so I feel the value is good. It smells good. Malibu has a freat reputation because it does what it is supposed to do.

So it leaked on arrival but not much. But I used it and it left my hair super smooth after good conditioning afterward. I'm not going to get the conditioner because what I really want is in this shampoo and I can just use my own conditioner afterward to great affect. Literally my curls feel clean but not stripped. Great product! Only used it once, but I'll probably use it once a month. I use Cera Ve 2 in 1 for shampoo most of the time. Listen, I know it's not fancy but it works and my scalp is so healthy. Then I use a toner conditioner and my curls are happy. We'll see how this continues to work in my routine, but it's a great great start.

I purchased the Malibu C Hard Water Wellness Shampoo specifically as a chelating shampoo to help remove hard water buildup, and it has worked really well for that purpose. After using it, I can clearly tell a difference in the texture of my hair — it feels cleaner, lighter, and less weighed down. I only use this about once every 6 weeks as part of a clarifying routine, and it does a great job without over-drying my hair. Compared to other chelating or clarifying shampoos I’ve tried, this one feels less harsh while still being effective. It also has a pleasant scent and lathers nicely, which makes it easy to work through the hair evenly. Overall, this is a great option for removing mineral buildup from hard water, especially if you want something effective but still gentle enough for occasional use.

Best clarifying shampoo. Nice citrus scent, very powerful cleansing

I wasn't sure this would work any better than other shampoos but it does! My hair is softer, the fragrance is mild and not overwhelming. It does exactly what it was supposed to do!!

I thought I had product only build up,tried a few other brands of clarifying shampoos with zero results. Did some research figured out it was most likely hard water build up instead. Did more research for best product to try and this brand came up. So I tried it out with amazing results! My hair feels normal again. I’m going to keep this on hand to reapply every few weeks. I will also be looking into the other products they have available.

product is great however it came leaking. not enough to go through the whole return process but the outside was covered in it and when I opened the cap there wasnt any seal on it so thats concerning but im too lazy and impatient so it is what it is.

One of the biggest strengths of this shampoo is its ability to make hair feel noticeably cleaner after just one or two washes. Many users with hard water report that their hair went from waxy, sticky, or straw-like to softer and shinier almost immediately. Reviewers especially praise how well it revives color-treated hair by reducing dullness and brassiness caused by mineral deposits. The formula is sulfate-free, vegan, cruelty-free, and color-safe, making it gentler than many harsh detox shampoos on the market. Instead of relying on strong detergents alone, Malibu C uses chelating technology to bind to mineral buildup and rinse it away. That makes it a particularly good option for people living in areas with well water or high mineral content in municipal water systems. Another highlight is the improvement in manageability. Users frequently mention reduced frizz, smoother texture, better curl definition, and hair that feels lighter and less coated. Several curly-haired reviewers also noted that products absorbed better after using this shampoo because buildup was no longer blocking moisture penetration. That said, this shampoo is not perfect for everyone. Because it is still a detoxifying and chelating shampoo, some people with extremely dry or damaged hair may find it slightly drying if used too often without a hydrating conditioner afterward. A few reviewers also mentioned that the citrus “dreamsicle” scent can feel strong or artificial. Others found that while it removed some buildup, severely damaged hair from long-term hard water exposure required multiple treatments or additional conditioning products.

Disappointed because the product has leaked in the courier :(

My hair looks so oily and dead but when I realized it's because of hard water and gave this shampoo a try, my hair went back to how it was before. This is now my standard shampoo and will buy more next time when I ran out of Malibu C shampoo again.

An improvement to dull/flat look caused by hard water.

Die Haare sind noch beim Einshampoonieren super soft. Man merkt einen spürbaren unterschied alle paar mal wenn man es benutzt sind die Haare weicher und leichter. Perfekt für Locken geeignet.

My hair is better and feels more clean
