reviewers familiar with the older formula

Clarifying Strength + Rosemary Mint Shampoo

Several reviewers report the shampoo leaves hair dry, stripped or scalp itchy/irritated, with a few describing significant hair loss or dryness they attribute to the product.

Many reviewers describe a fresh, invigorating rosemary-mint scent with a cooling, tingling sensation on the scalp that they compare to a spa treatment.

A recurring positive pattern is hair and scalp feeling clean, light and free of buildup after washing, with several reviewers calling out good value for the price.

A substantial group of longtime OGX customers are unhappy that this Rosemary Mint formula replaced the discontinued Tea Tree Mint line, saying it does not clean, moisturize or smell the same and asking for the old formula back.

Some reviewers say the opposite of the clarifying claim happened for them, describing hair that turned oily or weighed down within a day of washing.

How this page was made

  • This page is assembled from the same researched records the individual product pages render: identity, each ingredient list as printed, each brand's own claims, dated price observations, and review themes written in our researchers' own words. Nothing on it is written per comparison.
  • We do not rank these against each other. Which of them suits you depends on your hair, and that is what the consultation works out.
  • The formula similarity percentage is a stored, precomputed number: position-weighted overlap of the two ingredient lists blended with agreement on the attributes we derive. It measures how alike two formulas are, not how well either works.
  • The value band is a fixed label over two stored numbers: this product’s cost per ounce as a percentile of every product of this type we have priced, each at the size it is most often sold in, and how many products we score as doing the same job cost at least a quarter less per ounce.
  • The "Is this right for you?" panel reads only your own consultation answers, and it applies exactly the filters our recommendation engine applies. It is computed when you load the page and is never stored on it.
  • 6 sources were consulted across the products on this page.
  • Ingredient order tells you relative amount only above roughly 1%. Prices are observations on the dates shown and change without notice. We do not sell these products and take no placement fees.
  • This is cosmetic information, not medical advice, and nothing here diagnoses or treats a health condition.
