Overview
OGX builds this ProGrowth shampoo around mandelic acid to exfoliate the scalp, clear buildup and unclog follicles, with peptides to strengthen strands. Sulfate-free surfactants clean without heavy stripping.
An oily or product-coated scalp gets a gentle exfoliating clean that supports a healthier environment for growth. It focuses on the scalp, so dry lengths still need a good conditioner.
Who it's for
Oily scalps and heavy product users suit this clarifying wash. Very dry or reactive scalps should patch test first.
Pros and cons

Performance notes
Mandelic acid loosens dead skin and oil on the scalp during the massage, then rinses away with the lather. Leaving it on longer once a week deepens the clarifying effect.
