Fragrance is one of the most common irritants in a shampoo, so Noughty left it out entirely.

What remains is a sulphate-free wash with naturally derived bisabolol and oat extract, both there to keep the scalp feeling comfortable rather than tight after rinsing. It clears dirt and build-up properly, so the scalp feels genuinely clean, but the cleansing agents are mild enough that the lengths are not left parched.

Unscented does not mean it smells of nothing at all. There is a faint base note from the ingredients themselves, which most people stop noticing after the first wash.

At 250ml it is a standard bottle for a fairly specific job: a plain, calm wash for a scalp that has had enough of everything else. It suits anyone who has narrowed a reaction down to their shampoo without yet working out which ingredient, and anyone who would simply rather their hair smelled of nothing.

Application tips

Two washes, both short. The first lifts oil and product, the second actually cleans the scalp, and you need far less shampoo for it than you think.

Concentrate on the scalp with the fingertips and let the run-off do the lengths. Rinse until the hair squeaks slightly at the roots but still feels soft further down. Follow with conditioner every time.

Results

The scalp comes out clean without the stripped, tight feeling a harsher wash leaves behind. There is no fragrance in it at all, which matters if scent is what sets your skin off.

Hair is left soft rather than squeaky, and the lengths keep enough moisture that detangling afterwards is manageable. It lathers modestly, which is normal without sulphates.
