⚡ At a Glance
- • Cleansing & Moisturising: Conditioner-first cowash cleans lightly while depositing moisturisers
- • Best for: People with wavy, curly or coily hair seeking gentle care
- • Not ideal for: Scalps needing heavy-duty clarifying or deep degreasing washes
The Conditioning Wash acts primarily as a conditioner with mild cleansing agents that produce little lather. It cleanses gently while prioritising hydration and curl health.
Gentle Cleansing - with a conditioner-first cowash formula
Formulation places conditioning agents ahead of surfactants, using mild cleansers that do not produce much foam. The low-foam approach removes light impurities while avoiding aggressive stripping of natural oils.
Scalp and strands are cleaned without drying, which supports more frequent washes and preserves curl bounce and elasticity.
Deep Hydration and Definition - thanks to curl-loving natural ingredients
Blend uses fresh curl-loving foods and kitchen cupboard staples alongside natural extracts to deposit moisturisers along the hair shaft. Nourishing components aim to smooth the cuticle and help strands clump into defined curls.
Hair feels softer and curls appear more defined with reduced frizz, making styling and detangling easier after washing.
Clean, Curly-Girl-Friendly Formula - with zero sulphates, silicones, mineral oils and phthalates
Free-from formulation omits sulphates and silicones that can strip or build up on curly hair while meeting vegan and cruelty-free criteria. Curly Girl compatibility is intentional to avoid ingredients that interfere with curl routines.
Suitable for Curly Girl methods and for users who prefer vegan, cruelty-free haircare without common harsh additives.
