When it comes to shampoo it’s often hard to know where to start. Whether you’re looking for volume, hydration or to condition your hair colour there’s thousands of products out there to choose from. With experts beginning to question the use of sodium laureth sulphate in shampoo, the ingredient that creates a foamy later and a squeaky-clean feel, many are beginning to take a more natural approach. If you too are looking to make that switch, we’ve put together some of our favourite natural shampoosto help you create a more earth-friendly haircare routine.  

We Are Paradoxx Super Natural Shampoo
