- Gentle surfactant system — cleanses without stripping or aggravating

Frequently Asked Questions
What causes an itchy, flaky scalp and how does this shampoo help?
Itchy, flaky scalp can be caused by seborrhoeic dermatitis (dandruff — triggered by Malassezia yeast overgrowth), scalp psoriasis, contact dermatitis from harsh shampoo ingredients, dryness, or simple irritation from SLS-containing shampoos. Holistic Sensitive addresses this by using a gentle, non-stripping surfactant system and active botanicals (lavender — antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory; aloe vera — soothing and anti-inflammatory) that calm the scalp rather than aggravate it.
Is Holistic Sensitive Shampoo suitable for coloured or chemically treated hair?
Yes. The gentle surfactant formula is significantly less stripping than SLS-containing shampoos, preserving colour and chemical treatment results. The moisturising botanicals also help maintain the integrity of chemically processed hair fibre.
Can this shampoo be used daily?
Yes. The gentle formula is designed for daily or as-needed use without over-stripping the scalp's natural oils. For very oily scalps, daily use helps regulate sebum production without the rebound oiliness that harsh shampoos can cause.
What size should I choose — 250ml or 500ml?
The 250ml is ideal for trialling the product or for travel. The 500ml provides better value for ongoing daily use. The formula is identical in both sizes.
Should I use the Holistic Sensitive Conditioner alongside this shampoo?
Yes — for best results, use Holistic Sensitive Conditioner after shampooing. The conditioner provides nourishment, detangling, and moisture replenishment to the hair shaft that the shampoo cleanses and treats the scalp. Using both together completes the Holistic Sensitive hair care routine.
