Clarifying condtioner?

[Ohio Sky]

WTH does that mean!? How can anything that doesnt have sulfates in it clarify?
Would this be a bad choice for CO?

A clarifying conditioner is usually paired to a clarifying shampoo--itself, it may not be any more clarifying than any other conditioner, but I suspect that it might deposit less gunk on your hair than other conditioners.

I see no reason why you couldn't use it for CO.

I'm not sure what it's supposed to mean, other than it's probably lighter. I use a V05 "clarifying" conditioner for CO, and it works pretty well (it gives me buildup, actually, and I have to clarify for real with shampoo and baking soda every couple of months, ironically enough). The article I read on the old site suggested starting with a clarifying conditioner if you're just beginning CO, as it'll get your hair cleaner when you're used to shampoo.

I like clarifying condish the best because they seem not to weigh my hair down as much as other. but yeah still have to shampoo every so often to remove buildup. but it works great for COg.

Yeah, the one I have is VO5 Vanilla mint tea. Ive been using it for a while (like, most of a bottle gone) before I realized it said clarifying, and I was like.... what does that mean? LOL
