Micellar shampoos work the same way as micellar skin care products. "It's all the basic science of being able to suspend oil and water without having it separate or give you greasy feel," says Deborah Burnes, founder of Sumbody. "In shampoos, it's used for the very same attributes as for skin. It is used to pull the dirt and oils off of the hair and the gunk and buildup on your scalp so that they will all wash away easier." And this micellar shampoo, which is also formulated with aloe and antioxidants, does exactly that, lifting away dirt without stripping your hair of moisture.
If you've been struggling with hair that looks a little, well, lackluster, then turn your attention to this silicone-free shampoo, which is formulated with micelles that attach to dirt, effectively removing dulling buildup. It's also chock-full of smoothing ingredients like coconut oil and argan oil.
Last, but certainly not least, we have micellar conditioner. This conditioner delivers tiny bubbles of moisture to your hair that wash away as soon as you rinse it out. Translation: It's a lightweight conditioner that won't leave your mane feeling greasy.
