Shampoo has one job on textured hair, which is to get the scalp clean and then stop. This one is sulphate-free and conditions as it goes, so the natural oils that keep curls behaving stay where they are.

Acai berry, pure shea butter and safflower oil are the working ingredients. The lather is modest, the rinse is clean, and hair comes out feeling washed rather than scoured. Colour lasts longer too, since there is nothing aggressive in there to lift it.

  • Sulphate-free cleansing that leaves the moisture balance alone
  • Acai berry, pure shea butter and safflower oil
  • Leaves hair soft enough to detangle straight after washing
  • Suitable for frequent use on dry, textured hair

13.5 oz / 400 ml. Made for 2a waves and 3b through 4c curls and coils. Pair it with the matching conditioner if your hair is particularly dry.

Application tips

Water first, and plenty of it. A sulphate-free shampoo needs the hair fully wet to spread, and a dry patch will not get clean.

Apply along the scalp in four or five places and massage with fingertips, not nails. A second short round is worth it if you have gone more than a week. Rinse, then condition. Never scrub the ends directly.

Results

Roots feel properly washed without that stripped, squeaking finish, and hair keeps enough moisture to comb through afterwards.

Lather is modest, which is normal without sulphates and no reflection on how clean the hair gets. Colour holds longer wash to wash, and curls behave better because their own oils are still in place.
