AG Balance Apple Cider Vinegar Sulfate-Free Shampoo is a gentle everyday shampoo made with organic apple cider vinegar that cleanses hair and scalp and brings back shine. It is part of AG's Plant-Based Essentials range, and AG describes the formula as 98% plant-based and naturally derived.

The Canadian-made organic apple cider vinegar, which AG says helps balance scalp pH, is joined by argan oil and a long list of what AG calls nourishing superfoods: aloe, apricot, peach, apple, sweet almond, millet, linseed, olive leaf, rosemary and arnica. The scent comes entirely from a blend of plant-based essential oils, so it smells fresh with a light hint of apple rather than vinegar.

Balance is not a harsh clarifier. AG designed it to be mild enough for daily use while still lifting light product and hard-water build-up. In AG's consumer study of 33 people using Balance with Boost Conditioner, 97% said hair and scalp felt noticeably cleaner and 94% said hair felt softer after one use.

Massage into wet hair and rinse. Follow with Boost Apple Cider Vinegar Silicone-Free Conditioner.

  • Sulfate-free, vegan and cruelty-free
  • Gentle enough for daily use
  • 12 oz (355 ml) rust-free aluminum bottle, made in Canada

Anyone whose hair or scalp feels weighed down by product, oil or hard-water residue but who doesn't want a stripping clarifying shampoo. AG says Balance is suitable for daily use, so it works as a regular shampoo rather than an occasional detox.

It suits men and women and is an everyday retail shampoo for home use. Pair it with Boost conditioner for the full routine.

Most apple cider vinegar hair products are occasional rinses or clarifiers. Balance puts organic apple cider vinegar into a sulfate-free shampoo that is gentle enough for daily washing, so you get a scalp-refreshing cleanse and extra shine without the tight, stripped feel of a clarifying shampoo.

The formula is 98% plant-based and naturally derived by AG's count, and it is scented only with essential oils, which makes it an easy swap for anyone moving to a cleaner routine without giving up a proper lather.

  • Wet hair thoroughly.
  • Massage Balance into the scalp and through the lengths.
  • Rinse well.
  • Follow with Boost Apple Cider Vinegar Silicone-Free Conditioner.

Suitable for daily use.

Pros

  • Mild enough to use every day while still lifting light build-up and hard-water residue
  • Apple cider vinegar and argan oil target shine and softness; in AG's study 85% saw a visible increase in shine after one use with Boost
  • Essential-oil scent with a light apple note, no vinegar smell
  • Comes in a refillable, rust-free aluminum bottle

Cons

  • Not a deep clarifier; very heavy build-up or swimming residue may need a stronger clarifying shampoo
  • Essential-oil fragrance contains citral and linalool, which some sensitive scalps avoid
  • AG's shine and softness figures come from a small 33-person study of the shampoo and conditioner used together
