The use of hairspray and other styling product can leave you in a sticky situation that can be hard to clear up. Hairspray use will cause buildup over time that will cause hair to become limp, dull and difficult to manage. Luckily there are some tips and tricks to getting your hair squeaky clean and buildup free.

Of course there are a number of specialty shampoos that can be purchased from salons and some stores that are specifically designed to remove hairspray and product buildup. These shampoos are very effective but the downside is they can be expensive as well ranging from $10 to $40 or more. Degunktify by Herbal Essence is an affordable shampoo for removing buildup that can be used weekly. Many salons offer a professional buildup remover service as well, but generally they are just using these same products you can purchase yourself. If you don’t mind spending some money this may be the best option for you.

There are however less expensive alternatives that can be just as effective. If you would like an easy at-home remedy for buildup removal simply mix together in a small bowl or bottle a generous amount of shampoo (clear shampoos work better) and 1 -2 tablespoons of baking soda. Make sure that it is completely mixed into a paste before applying it as you would your usual shampoo. Lather, then let set for 1 – 2 minutes, rinse and then repeat the process.

Another effective home remedy for removing buildup is a mixture of water and vinegar. Apple cider vinegar works best as it has a more pleasant smell as well but if you have hard water you may want to use distilled vinegar for best results. Mix equal parts warm water and vinegar and then after shampooing with your regular shampoo apply the mixture to hair, let set for one minute, then rinse. The smell should be very slight or nonexistent so don’t worry about offending anyone that gets close.

For those who tend to have dry damaged hair as well as a product buildup problem using baby oil can kill two birds with one stone. Generously apply baby oil to the hair then comb through thoroughly to evenly coat each strand. Allow the baby oil to soak for 5 – 10 minutes then shampoo vigorously with a clarifying shampoo. This will help remove the buildup from the product and will leave hair very soft to the touch.

Using these methods you can ensure you never have to sacrifice looking good, so go ahead and spray on, because nothing can stop you from looking your best, especially not a little buildup from your hairspray.
