Does your hair feel heavy, greasy, or lifeless? Just like your skin, your scalp and hair can accumulate buildup from products, pollution, and hard water.
A hair detox treatment is the reset your hair needs to restore shine, softness, and scalp health.
At Haste Urban Hair Spa, we offer both professional and at-home solutions that cleanse while nourishing your strands.
Whether you overuse dry shampoo, live in a hard-water city, or want to reset your routine, a hair detox can transform your hair from dull to dazzling.
What Is a Hair Detox Treatment?
A hair detox is a deep cleansing routine designed to remove:
- Excess oil
- Product buildup
- Environmental toxins
- Impurities from the scalp and hair shaft
Unlike everyday shampooing, detox treatments often include clarifying agents, exfoliators, and soothing ingredients such as clay, charcoal, or botanical oils.

You don’t always need a salon visit. Here’s how to detox your hair at home:
- Clarifying Shampoo: Remove product buildup 1-2 times per month.
- Scalp Exfoliation: Massage your scalp with a scrub or DIY mix of sugar and conditioner.
- Deep Mask: Apply clay, charcoal, or botanical masks for 10-15 minutes.
- Rinse Well: Use cool water to seal the cuticles.
- Hydrate: Follow with a sulfate-free conditioner or nourishing oil.
Frequency:
- Oily scalp: weekly
- Normal scalp: every 2–4 weeks
