What can I expect during the transition from conventional to sulfate-free hair care?
Some people experience an adjustment period (usually 4-6 weeks) when moving from conventional to sulfate-free shampoos. Your hair may feel different for the first few washes as your scalp rebalances to a gentler formula. Be patient, within a few consistent uses, you’ll discover healthier, stronger, more naturally beautiful hair.
Does sulfate-free shampoo really clean your hair?
It does! Our sulfate-free shampoos create a rich, natural lather from gentle plant-powered surfactants. They lift away buildup and impurities without disrupting your hair’s natural balance, helping maintain softness, shine, and a healthy scalp microbiome.
Why doesn’t my shampoo lather?
If you are new to plant-powered, sulfate-free hair care, you may not see a voluminous lather upon use. Our shampoos do their job by clinging to oil and dirt and sliding away with the flow of water so rest assured that even without the lather, our shampoos are cleansing your hair and scalp!
How do I use your shampoo?
Massage a small amount of Rahua shampoo into thoroughly wet hair and scalp, working into a lather. Rinse well, and cleanse again to achieve a richer lather. Follow with your preferred Rahua conditioner.
My hair is fine, will Rahua® products weigh my hair down?
While our products can be used across all hair types, there are a range of products that are better suited for those with finer hair. We recommend products like our Voluminous Essential Hair Care Set - a great set for anyone with fine hair looking to add volume and bounce. We also have an alternate, lighter version of our best selling treatment, Leave-In Treatment Light, to help those who want hydration without the weight.
Overall, our products are very concentrated so we always recommend that first time users try a smaller amount, especially with an oil like our Legendary Amazon Oil. Less is more!
Does Rahua® have any products for thick curly, coily, or textured hair?
Yes! We have a curated collection of products perfect for thicker or textured hair types. We recommend using heavier and more moisturizing products to help better form curl patterns and protect dry hair.
Our Hydration Essential Hair Care Set is a great option for daily or weekly use, depending on your hair type and needs, helping to layer and retain moisture. Pre-wash treatments like our Hydration Hair Mask or Enchanted Island Vegan Curl Butter are also options to help layer moisture on stubbornly dry hair or textured hair.
Is Rahua® hair care good for straight hair?
Yes, Rahua products are great for straight hair! You can choose from a range of products like the Classic Essential Hair Care Set which helps nourish and add shine, the Voluminous Essential Hair Care Set clarifies and adds body and bounce, and the Hydration Essential Hair Care Set which transforms dry, damaged hair. It’s all dependent on your hair type and goals.
Can I use Rahua® hair care daily?
Absolutely! Rahua products are consciously formulated to be gentle enough for daily use but powerful enough to cleanse, nourish, and protect your strands and scalp.
