Have you found any product or regimen that leaves your hair feeling clean and full?

I live in an East Coast city that has the softest water I have ever used, and my hair has become greasy, flat, and lifeless (yet also, somehow, dried-out). Sometimes washing every other day isn't enough. I have tried using expensive volumizing shampoos to no avail. Oddly enough, the one thing that seems to give life to my hair is occasional use of a styling mousse or wax.

I do believe softER water is a good thing, but very soft water leaves people's hair grimy and frizzy, and I am NOT the only person who has noticed this effect with the water in my area.

Have you ever tired Herbal essences Degunkify? Its a clarifying shampoo that takes out all the residue from products and life lol. Its very tingly, Ive found shampoos with mint makes your hair feel cleaner.

Buy a filtering shower head or maybe one with vitamin C in it. Hard water is bad but soft water is pretty bad too!

Shampoo bars. They clean VERY well in soft water.
