Which is better for oily hair?

Garnier Pure Clean. It is built to remove residue and buildup, which suits oily scalps and heavy product use. Native is moisturizing and can weigh oily hair down.

Which is better for color-treated or bleached hair?

Native. It is sulfate-free and moisturizing, which is gentler on dry, damaged and color-treated hair. Garnier's clarifying formula can be drying on processed hair.

Does Native really lather without sulfates?

Yes. It uses cocamidopropyl betaine, a gentler cleanser that still foams. Lather is usually lighter than a sulfate shampoo.

Is Garnier Pure Clean sulfate-free?

No. Garnier markets it as free of silicones, parabens, phthalates and DMDM hydantoin, but not sulfate-free. That is part of why it clarifies so well.

Which lasts longer per bottle?

Garnier, by volume. Its bottle is roughly twice the size of Native's 16.5 fl oz, so it lasts about twice as long at the same usage.

Is Native worth stepping up to over Garnier?

If you have dry, damaged or color-treated hair and want a gentler, certified sulfate-free formula, yes. If you mainly need to cut buildup, Garnier does that job well.

Native Coconut & Vanilla Shampoo vs Garnier Fructis Pure Clean Shampoo

Buy Native Coconut & Vanilla if you want a sulfate-free, silicone-free daily shampoo with a strong coconut-vanilla scent and NSF certification, and you don't mind a pump that some owners report sticking or breaking. Buy Garnier Fructis Pure Clean if you want a lightweight purifying wash that strips buildup, comes in a large bottle with recycled plastic packaging, and suits oily scalps and product-heavy routines. Native leans moisturizing and gentle; Garnier leans clarifying and fresh.

Choose the Native Coconut & Vanilla if you have dry, damaged, color-treated or curly hair and want a creamy, moisturizing sulfate-free wash with a sweet scent.
Choose the Garnier Fructis Pure Clean if you want a clarifying, residue-removing shampoo for oily hair or heavy product use in a big bottle.
