Product details

This rich, creamy formula provides intensive hydration for thirsty, damaged hair. Created specifically for medium to thick hair, our plant-forward formula combines rare Amazonian oils with natural protein-bonding sugars to drive moisture deep into each strand. Morete oil protects from UV damage, while rahua oil's omega-9-rich properties strengthen from within.

The result is smoother, shinier hair with a balanced scalp and reduced frizz. This formula produces a gentle lather and leaves hair with lasting hydration without feeling heavy or greasy.

Note: Those with very fine hair may find this formula too rich for daily use. For best results on fine hair, apply conditioner first and shampoo after.

Best For: Medium to thick hair types experiencing dryness, particularly beneficial for curly, coily and textured hair
Natural Notes: Tropical Passion Fruit and Mango

Frequently asked questions

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. 

Can I use the Hydration Shampoo and Conditioner if I have fine hair?

While our products can be used across all hair types, the Hydration Shampoo and Conditioner is best suited for medium to thick hair with curly or coily texutre. 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.

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 sulfate-free shampoo really clean your hair?

It does! Our sulfate-free shampoos create a 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 well?

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!

What does the Hydration Shampoo and Conditioner smell like?

The Hydration Shampoo and Conditioner has notes of passion fruit and mango.

What our community says
Our community says this shampoo leaves hair feeling soft, silky, and well-hydrated. Many reviews mention noticeable improvements in texture and manageability, especially for those with dry or frizzy hair. Users appreciate the subtle scent and rich lather.

    Actually hydrating!

    I have notified a big different in hydration since using Rahua! I use the hydrating conditioner as well. I will say I don’t love the texture as much (compared to regular shampoo) as I feel like I have to use a lot of it to get my hair clean because it doesn’t lather that much, but other than that I can’t complain! The scent is great but not over powering.

    Sample size

    I got a sample of this product to try for my hair. It wasn’t the right product unfortunately. Still 5 stars for good ingredients and for the fact that this works for others; just not for my hair type.
