Detoxifying Shampoo to Go Longer Between Washes

Are you stuck in a loop with your shampoo? After a wash with your chemical-based shampoo, do you find your hair to be heavy and oily the next day, making it hard to break the cycle of frequent washes?

Meet the Sandalwood Yuzu Shampoo; it is everything you’ve been looking for: performance, better ingredients, and naturally scented in a sustainable aluminum bottle. This balancing and detoxifying shampoo gently removes product build-up and excess oil for visibly healthier, more lustrous hair.

Sulfate and Paraben-Free

Sulfates and Parabens are important ingredients to avoid in your hair care products. Sulfates are an aggressive synthetic ingredient used to create a lather but are known to strip hair of its natural oils and can fade color for dyed hair. Parabens are a very strong preservative for water-based products, but studies show their ability to disrupt endocrine and reproductive systems, along with their link to ecological harm, particularly with coral reefs.


Why do companies still use them? Because they are effective at their cosmetic roles and very cheap to use. We don't believe in short-sighted decisions or cutting corners in our formulations. We have put a lot of care into this haircare line to create products we felt were missing from the market, products we wanted to use for ourselves.

    Tried switching after my first round, and NOPE

    I love the shampoo and conditioner so much , i couldnt try to find another . Smells great, and cleanses well. I’ve learned to really only use 2 pumps per wash, and when the pump starts working, don’t give up! I will gladly afford two bottles a year to meet all my hair needs. I work in the outdoors, and i love making my home a personal spa

    excellent

    My hairdresser recently asked, “What have you been doing to your hair?” When I mentioned I’ve been using Sandalwood Yuzu shampoo, he said, “Whatever you’re doing, keep it up—your hair looks amazing!”

    As a sailor, I spend a lot of time on the water, and by the end of summer, my hair usually looks awful. But this year, it’s a completely different story. I’ve even started buying the shampoo for my son because he struggles with a dry scalp, and I’m confident this will help him too!

    Wonderful shampoo!

    This is the only shampoo that I have purchased multiple refills for. The scent is uplifting but not overpowering. It leaves my oily hair feeling clean but not stripped. I am a forever customer!

    Never looking back…

    This is the first shampoo I have ever really wanted to subscribe to. I only wash my hair every two or three days (plus I sauna every day and work out every other), and may hair holds up in between washes. But man, when it’s wash day I’m like one of those Herbal Essences models steaming up the shower…of course without all the chemicals. But seriously, all the Wonder Valley products are incredible, and I will be a long term customer.

    The perfect shampoo doesn’t exi…

    It does, and it comes in a gorgeous bottle too 👼 This shampoo is my new obsession. I love that this partner in the shampoo-conditioner duo is bright & clean feeling with is yuzu forward scent. It lathers so well, even when using a nickel sized amount, and my hair stays clean for 3 days whereas I used to have to wash my hair every other day. BIG FAN! This would make such a nice gift to a friend fyi!

FAQ

A detoxifying shampoo helps remove all the build-up: excess oils, hard water minerals, product buildup, and daily dirt. It does this without aggressively stripping back your hair and adds nourishing hydrating to your hair and scalp.

They both remove unwanted build-up and impurities. The key distinction is the ingredients they use to do this and how those ingredients interact with your hair and scalp. Detoxifying shampoos, like our Sandalwood Yuzu Shampoo, rely on plant-based, nontoxic ingredients to gently but thoroughly cleanse your hair while supporting your scalp. Clarifying products rely on effective yet harsh chemical-based ingredients to strip away build-up without adding any moisture back into the hair. They can be disruptive to your scalp’s microbiome and health and are commonly recommended for occasional use. A gentle detoxifying shampoo is appropriate for frequent use.

The formulation and ingredients used in our Sandalwood Yuzu Shampoo give a very deep yet gentle clean to remove a lot of unwanted build-up and excess oils from your hair and scalp. This cleansing unburdens your hair from all that weight, giving you more definition, and more volume. That’s one part of it, the deep cleansing. The other part is the nourishing this formula offers. It helps restore balance and hydration. When we are too harsh with our hair, using harsh ingredients that momentarily give us results, our scalp retaliates but produces more oil to help repair any damage or balance itself. By using a nontoxic formula, your scalp will start to find a wonderful homeostasis and can produce fewer oils since frequent repair isn’t necessary. A few variables beyond what’s in the bottle impact the frequency of washes: how you wash your hair and what else is a part of your haircare routine. When you go to the salon, they dig their fingers and massage your scalp – increasing blood flow and helping cleanse out build-up. Try to mimic this at home for better results! The other component is your routine: are you using products that contain silicones, for example? This adds a lot of shine but also coats the strands of your hair and builds up over time, requiring more frequent washing. If your goal is to have a healthier scalp and head of hair and to reduce how frequently you need to wash it to support your holistic hair health, then evaluating your routine and products outside of shampoo and conditioner is recommended.

We recommend 2-3x per week, but ultimately, you know your hair: we encourage you to find a routine that works for you. While it’s important to thoroughly wash your hair and scalp, frequent washing can be counter-effective. Our Sandalwood Yuzu Shampoo was formulated to give you more time between washes. You can also still condition on days you are showering without.
