AnM&S shampoo that costs just £3 has been flying off the shelves because of how good fans claim it is at washing greasy hair.
The Clarifying Hair & Body Wash from the British high street chain is as good as ‘fairy liquid’ for battling oily scalps, some beauty enthusiasts have said, while another claimed: ‘I could literally cook a steak in my hair and this stuff is terrific’.
The vegan-friendly shampoo is infused with pro vitamin B5 and is fragranced with Sea Fennel & Cedar and blended with orange, eucalyptus, patchouli, rosemary essential oils & geranium extract for ‘added indulgence’.
Dozens of beauty fans rushed to sing the praises of the product afterinfluencer, Bambi Does Beauty,captured the moment she managed to find the last Clarifying bottle on the shelves in one of the stores.
The influencer shared a video on TikTok of her reaching for the bottle, writing over the clip: ‘I want to apologise to all the greasy haired girlies cos I just got the last clarifying shampoo at M&S.’
She also captioned it: ‘As a greasy haired goblin this is literally the best £3 I’ve ever spent.’
Bambi added that she uses the shampoo for every wash and ‘it’s not drying either which is pretty rare’.
Many similarly obsessed clarifying shampoo users flocked to the comments section to praise the product.

A £3 M&S shampoo has been flying off the shelves because of how good it is at washing greasy hair

However, one user advised people that ‘clarifying shampoo strips your hair of oil so it can be strong, I have very straight and fine hair and only use it 1 or 2 times a week and regular shampoo in between’.
Another user online shared a similar clip of the shampoo, writing ‘Girls if you are needing something for greasy hair then M&S clarifying hair and body wash is your best friend.
‘This clarifying shampoo is perfect for getting rid of greasy hair (not an ad),’ added the TikTok user.
However the only drawback seemed to be that the packaging was quite stiff and it is apparently hard to squeeze out any product.
One woman wrote: ‘Love them but the bottles are an absolute nightmare to squeeze’, while another said: ‘Love the smell but the packaging is just not ergonomic at all! So hard to squeeze when you have weak joints unfortunately.’
However, Bambi said that the Clarifying version of the shampoo is squeezier than the other viral versions and did not struggle to get the product out.

The other £3 versions have been similarly popular on social media, with their Nourishing and Volumising brand also going viral earlier this year for giving ‘salon-quality’ washes.
The Nourishing conditioner and Volumising shampoo boasts of being both sulphate and silicon free that will ‘rebalance the scalp’ thanks to its extracts of micro-algae.
There are also two versions to choose from – a nourishing sea salt and green bergamot oran orchid and waterlily volumising option.
One beauty fan said they are ‘literally the best shampoo and conditioner I’ve tried’ while another added ‘I’ve used a lot of professional brands over the years being a hairdresser but these are 10/10.’
