I started using Maple Holistics Tea Tree shampoo because I dye my hair often and wanted to find something that was more natural than what I'd been using, which was everything form standard name brands you can find at your local grocery store to a little more pricey options from Ulta. I'd been reading about people who'd reset their scalp balance by not really washing their hair for weeks, but instead "rinse" with an apple cider vinegar and water mixture (I'd read doing the water & baking soda mix could be too harsh so didn't want to try that). Wanting to go more natural, I gave the apple cider mix a shot for about three weeks (as someone who can stretch about four days between washes with regular shampoo and cond.) and was hoping I would start seeing results, but I just kept getting more greasy and itchy (shiny, yes, but not much else to get excited about). I started researching more natural shampoos and came across Maple Holistics, and loved that their shampoos are made from all natural ingredients and are paraben & sulfate free, which is important having colored hair. I feel like this does a good job of keeping my hair shiny and soft and I've noticed that I have fewer split ends than usual. Though this doesn't completely get rid of some regular scalp flaking, I find that if I do an occasional oil treatment it gets me back on track. I would recommend this product - has a nice smell and gets the job done!
