An alkaline composition for use in removal of mineral deposits and cationic polymeric buildup from hair is disclosed herein. Said composition comprises the combination of a multidentate ligand complex, an anionic polysulfonate salt and water. A synergistic combination of chelating agents is disclosed which has been found to be highly effective in removing bound minerals from hair at a slightly alkaline pH.
