A method of using a hair care composition that cleans the hair and removes dirt and product build up, while also leaving the hair feeling clean, lightly conditioned and/or untangled, as demonstrated by the wet combing and hair feel tests. The hair care composition includes a surfactant, a rheology modifier, and an aqueous carrier, wherein the composition has a pH ranging from about 2 to about 4 as measured by taking a direct pH measurement using a standard hydrogen electrode of the composition at 25° C. Additionally, the viscosity of the aqueous composition is from about 3,000 cP to about 15,000 cP.
