Shikakai

Botanical name: (Acacia concinna)

The bark contains high levels of saponins, which foaming agents are found in several other plant species used as shampoos or soaps. Saponins containing plants have a long history of use as mild cleaning agents. Saponins from the plant's pods have been traditionally used as a detergent, and in Bengal for poisoning fish; they are documented to be potent marine toxins.

Shikakai powder has been used for centuries as a natural hair cleanser. It promotes hair growth and root strength, and gently detangles. It is mild and has a natural low pH, which conditions hair to be soft and lustrous. It does not strip the hair of its natural oils, and its use has also been known to prevent dandruff.

Mix the powder with water to create a paste and work it through the hair. The paste will lather moderately, and should be left on the hair for about 5 minutes. Henna or amla powders can be added to the paste to give a boost of color to the hair.

Strengthens hair from the root to tip Supports new hair growth, great dandruff control, and naturally detangles hair without conditioners .
