Inspired by ancient botanical rituals, this shampoo bar blends the earthy strength of shikakai with the soft, floral warmth of ylang ylang. The scent is gently exotic — creamy, floral, and comforting — wrapping the senses in a feeling of calm and quiet strength.

Designed to fortify and care for the hair without harshness, it leaves hair feeling stronger, smoother, and naturally radiant.

Why “fortifying”?

Because it combines time-honored plant cleansers with nourishing oils to strengthen the hair fiber while respecting the scalp’s natural balance.

Key ingredients & benefits

Shikakai powder — a traditional botanical cleanser that gently purifies, supports scalp health, and helps strengthen hair

Jojoba oil — helps balance moisture and support the scalp without heaviness

Shea butter & argan oil — nourish, soften, and protect the hair fiber

Ylang ylang essential oil — brings softness, shine, and a calming, floral finish

The result: hair that feels clean yet fortified, soft to the touch, and naturally luminous.

Scent

Softly floral and subtly exotic.
Creamy ylang ylang with warm, comforting notes — elegant, balanced, and enveloping.

Switching from liquid to solid shampoo might feel a little unusual at first, but it’s easier than you think!

Simply wet your scalp, hair, and the shampoo bar, then gently rub the bar to create a rich lather. Massage your hair and scalp with your hands, rinse thoroughly, and you’re done. Keep your bar in a dry spot between washes to make it last.

Gentle, nourishing, and crafted with care, this solid shampoo uses SCI (coconut-derived fatty acids), one of the mildest, non-irritating cleansing ingredients available. It’s enriched with Shea Butter to moisturize and soothe the scalp, Coconut Oil for shine and density, Vegetable Glycerin for hydration, Silk Protein to smooth and soften, Argan Oil to revitalize, and Jojoba Oil to rebalance and nourish hair of all types. Ayurvedic powders, clays, and essential oils complete the blend for a truly natural, luxurious hair care experience.

hydrolyzed silk protein

hydrolyzed silk

Hydrolyzed silk is a natural ingredient that is derived from the leftover cocoons made by silkworms. It works especially well to add luster and shine to hair. The majority of hydrolyzed silk protein are preserved with Phenoxyethanol, but ours is preserved with Potassium Sorbate, a natural organic compound found in the berries of the mountain ash and Benzilalcohol, a naturally occuring product most commonly found in plants (cranberries, apricot, ylang ylang).

A rich, plant-based butter extracted from the nuts of the Shea tree.
Naturally high in vitamins A and E, it deeply nourishes and protects both skin and hair from dryness and harsh conditions. Our Shea butter is raw, unrefined, and hand-crafted by women’s co-operatives in Africa — pure, ethical, and full of care.

Extracted from the fresh flesh of mature coconuts, this oil is rich in medium-chain fatty acids that nourish and protect.
