Bumble and Bumble Sunday Shampoo, $26
The best thing you can do about pollutants is to get them off your hair and scalp before they can do more damage by clogging pores and continue their free radical reign of terror on your strands (well, maybe not that serious, but you get the idea). This shampoo, named for the best day of the week, is intended to provide a once-weekly dose of deep cleaning that removes accumulated pollutants, debris, product, dirt and oil with an astringent mix of Panax ginseng root, rosemary and sage leaf extracts. It leaves behind a cleaner scalp and a great start to the week for your hair.
