FAQ
Why doesn't the Balancing Shampoo foam?
The Balancing Shampoo is a creamy, concentrated blend of nutrients. It needs to be activated by mixing water in your hands to create a silky lather before applying it to the scalp. The more you can work up a lather, the better it will cleanse.
How often should I use the Balancing Shampoo?
Whatever feels right for you. Contrary to popular belief, it’s healthier to cleanse your scalp more often than not, but only if using gentle products that won't strip essential moisture, color, or chemical processing. Cleansing every 1-2 days is ideal for most hair types; however, our Balancing Shampoo was designed to suit any lifestyle and routine, so you can safely cleanse as often as you want or need.
What should I expect when transitioning to the silicone-free Hair Conditioner?
Many silicones are water insoluble, meaning it can take around 5-8 washes to remove the superficial layers. During this transition period, your hair might feel less “smooth” at first. This will subside as our plant oils penetrate the hair cuticle to restore intrinsic moisture without added weight or residue.
Silicones create the illusion of smoothness by forming a waterproof seal around the hair to block out humidity. These seals build upon each other with continued use, weighing the hair down and making it increasingly difficult to receive moisture, which leads to flat and brittle hair.
