    Stopped me from going crazy!

    100 stars!!! My hair was greasy straight after being freshly washed for weeks on end which was sending me crazy. Then realised it must have been product build up. Tried this on a whim and it revived my hair completely, I finally had fresh feeling hair and no oily roots, after 1 wash! You have a new obsessed customer.

    Brilliant!

    I have very sensitive skin, and I've been using the healing kiwi shampoo for a while and I love it, so I thought giving this one a try and it didn't disappoint me. Leaves my hair soft, smooth and doesn't irritates my scalp! Win! 💅🏾

    Still loving this shampoo

    I’ve been using Ethique for years now. I love how clean it leaves my oily hair. I tried a few other brands before trying Ethique and glad I finally found this brand. Plus it makes me feel good to not have to throw out plastic bottles; just open a new box instead!
