The quality of your shampoo can make a significant difference in the health of your hair and scalp. Unfortunately, many shampoo products today contain toxic chemicals that dry out your hair and scalp and hurt your scalp microbiome. We designed a natural, nontoxic shampoo and conditioner so you can be confident that you are giving your hair the care that it deserves.

Our Organic Shampoo is made with exotic fruits, probiotics, hypoallergenic soap nuts, and ayurvedic certified organic water-soluble extracts. It is rich in antioxidant and anti-inflammatory ingredients that protect the scalp and promote healthy, vibrant hair. It is truly a one-of-a-kind natural, nontoxic shampoo that contains the following ingredients:

 

Soap Nut

 

Soap nuts are only the dried shells of the soapberry nut, which come from the Sapindus mukorossi tree. This tree is native to India and Nepal but can be found now in tropical climates worldwide. Even though they are called soap "nuts," they are not nuts but the dried berries of the soapberry tree—so there's no need to worry if you have a nut allergy.

 

Soap nut shells contain a natural soap, called Saponin, that gets released when the nutshells absorb water, creating a soaping effect. The best part about this natural soap is that it is completely organic and biodegradable. Soap nut is an excellent alternative to chemical detergents, so we chose to include this as the primary soaping agent in our nontoxic shampoo.

 

Artesian Spring Water

 

The base of our nontoxic shampoo is artesian spring water. This completely natural and pure medium releases the saponins in soap nut, creating a gentle soaping effect.

 

Indian Laurel Leaf

 

Indian Laurel Leaf (Litsea glutinosa) is an herb native to India. Still, it can now be found growing around the world in places like Australia, China, Thailand, Vietnam, and the islands of the Western Pacific. The leaf of Indian Laurel has many traditional uses. One of its significant properties is acting as an antimicrobial agent, helping to kill harmful bacteria and other pathogens. In our shampoo, Indian Laurel Leaf is used to help remove the bacteria that build up in your hair and scalp daily. 

 

Dillenia Indica Whole Fruit

 

Dillenia Indica, commonly known as elephant apple, is a species of Dillenia native to tropical regions of Asia. It has many health benefits and is particularly useful as an ingredient for natural hair-care products because it produces a smooth lathering effect. It is also used traditionally in Ayurveda as a hair tonic helping to regenerate hair in conditions of hair loss or damage.

 

Whole Thai Lime

 

Thai lime (Citrus hystrix), also known as kaffir lime or makrut lime, is a citrus fruit native to Southeast Asia. The juice, pulp, and skin of Thai lime have many benefits for hair health, helping to strengthen hair follicles and slow the onset of male pattern baldness. 

 

Pineapple Juice

 

Pineapple juice (Ananas comosus) is a rich source of vitamin C and can help stimulate hair growth. It helps make your hair look thicker and more full while producing a natural layer of silkiness.

 

Organic Flaxseed Glycerin

 

In addition to artesian spring water, organic flaxseed glycerin (Linum usitatissimum) also acts as a base for our nontoxic shampoo, helping to create a balanced consistency. It also moisturizes your hair and helps prevent breakage.

Organic Berberis Aristata Root Extract

 

Indian Barberry (Berberis aristata) is an Ayurvedic herb that has potent anti-inflammatory and antifungal properties, helping to prevent fungal scalp issues like dandruff. The primary culprit of dandruff is a fungus called Malassezia that feeds on the oils produced by the scalp. This ingredient alone makes our shampoo a tremendous nontoxic dandruff shampoo. In addition, the anti-inflammatory properties of Indian Barberry also help protect the skin on the scalp.

 

Organic Tulsi Leaf Extract

 

Tulsi (Ocimum tenuiflorum), also known as Holy Basil, is an Ayurvedic herb with powerful adaptogenic properties, helping the body better adapt to stress. When applied topically, tulsi soothes the skin, prevents hair loss or thinning, fights dandruff, and helps to alleviate skin conditions like eczema and psoriasis.

 

Organic Freeze Dried Turmeric Juice

 

Turmeric (Curcuma longa) is one of the most potent anti-inflammatory herbs in nature. Treating hair with turmeric helps keep the skin of the scalp healthy. It also helps to prevent and treat oily hair. In addition, some studies suggest it may also benefit hair growth.

 

Organic Freeze Dried Ginger Juice

 

Like its cousin turmeric, ginger (Zingiber officinale) is an anti-inflammatory herb that can act as a remedy for various scalp conditions. Ginger also contains certain fatty acids that can improve the strength of hair. 

 

Organic Amla Fruit Extract

 

Amla (Emblica Officinalis Gaertn), also called Indian Gooseberry or Amalaki, is one of nature's highest sources of vitamin C. Vitamin C is a potent antioxidant that helps to protect the skin of the scalp from oxidative damage caused by free radical exposure. 

 

Organic Orange Essential Oil

 

Organic orange essential oil gives this nontoxic shampoo a mild but pleasant citrus scent. The vitamins in orange essential oil also nourish hair follicles, help treat dry, irritated scalp conditions, and help eliminate dandruff.

 

Probiotics from Natural Fermentation

 

In addition to the ingredients above, our Organic Shampoo contains natural enzymes and probiotics that help to create a healthy scalp microbiome. The scalp microbiome is essential for hair health and is widely overlooked in hair care today. All the skin on our bodies, including the scalp, is covered with trillions of bacteria and other microorganisms. Like the gut microbiome, the balance of bacteria in our scalp microbiome is essential to its health.

 

The probiotic bacteria in our Organic Shampoo help to create a healthy scalp microbiome, mainly when used daily. Over time, the harmful bacteria and fungus on the scalp get eradicated by the natural antifungal and antimicrobial agents in this formula and get replaced with beneficial probiotics—particularly Lactobacillus casei, Rhodopseudomanas palustrist, and Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
