Saving the rainforest, one bottle at a time

Frequently asked questions

My Classic Shampoo and Conditioner came in and it has a different label, this is a real Rahua product?

Yes! No need to worry, it's the same Classic Shampoo and Conditioner as before.

When we refreshed our look and logo back in April 2025, we carefully crafted every detail to honor our heritage and mission of preserving the Amazon rainforest while ensuring Rahua remains relevant and impactful for generations to come.

As a natural next step, we tackled how we display our products to the world. The unveiling of Rahua's updated packaging marks the beginning of a new era. This evolution showcases Rahua in a new light allowing more of the world to discover transformative plant forward beauty experiences.

It’s still the same beloved products you know and love, just with a new look.

Does Rahua® use parabens in the products? Sulfates? Silicones? Phthalates?

Rahua is paraben-free, sulfate-free, silicone-free and phthalate-free! Our formulas use plant-powered surfactants that are gentle on the skin and scalp while still cleansing thoroughly. You may not see an immediate voluminous lather with natural shampoos. Our shampoos do their job by clinging to oil and dirt and sliding away with the flow of water. 

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.

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!

What scent is the Classic Shampoo and Conditioner?

The scent of the Classic Shampoo and Conditioner is woody and earthy with notes of palo santo oil and rahua oil.

Can I use your shampoo every day?

Yes. Our formulas are designed to cleanse gently and effectively, making them ideal for daily rituals, if desired.

What our community says
Our community says this shampoo leaves hair feeling clean and soft without stripping. Many reviews mention improved manageability and shine, particularly for fine and thin hair. While most appreciate the mild, natural scent, some note the lower lather typical of natural formulas. Common feedback includes longer-lasting freshness between washes and improved texture. Though a few users find it drying, most report their hair feels healthier and more vibrant with regular use.

    Rahua classic shampoo and conditioner

    I really love your classic shampoo!!! A little goes a long way. This shampoo has a nice light fragrance and it lathers well. For once my sensitive scalp doesn't itch!!! I'm so happy 😊 My hair feels truly clean after I'm done shampooing and follow with the classic conditioner. I'm extremely impressed with Rahua products and will continue to use them and try other products as well.

    I’ve been using Rahua classic shampoo for a few years now, I love that the ingredients are natural and my hair is so soft afterwards. Smells good too!

    Love this shampoo!

    I spent hours looking for a low to non toxic shampoo option that also didn’t clog my pores because I do have back ance. This is the only shampoo I have found that marks the box with great ingredients and also is not pore clogging for my back. HIGHLY recommend this product!

    AMAZED

    I have tried many natural shampoos over the last 3 years but my hair was left heavy with residue and hidden in a ball cap. I tried this shampoo today and I AM IN AWE! Someone even asked me what shampoo I use because it looks really good, and that’s a huge plus being postpartum. All day it has been soft, light, and brushes out easier. A complete makeover! I have already referred others to make the swap. My hair is low porosity, thin, long, straight for reference.

    Classic Shampoo

    Absolutely love this all natural shampoo. It lathers well and along with the conditioner, my hair feels and looks amazing after I've blow dried it. It is expensive, but it's the best shampoo I have found. Now tempted to try some of the other shampoos. Rahua hair products are fantastic.

    Beautiful product

    Just discovered Rahua products so I’ve ordered every shampoo and conditioner type in the mini sizes to find which I like best and so far none have disappointed.

    The classic fragrance is light and fresh and it cleans the hair and scalp thoroughly without feeling like it’s stripped it. Hair feels lovely afterwards and I have noticed I don’t seem to need to shampoo and condition as often as I have with other shampoos.

    Love the ethos of this company and love their products. I think I’ve found my new go to company for all things hair ❤️

    Fresh clean hair

    I love Rahua’s classic shampoo as much as I do the others. The whole shower smells exhilarating when I use it and my hair feels and looks so healthy and shiny. Of equal importance is knowing that the ingredients are pristine and carefully selected from nature.
