Vegan Shampoo, Conditioner & Hair Products

Vegan hair products

For many people around the world, the plant-based lifestyle isn’t just about what you eat. It’s also about avoiding the animal-based ingredients that are abundant in a range of everyday products. In line with this quickly growing ‘conscious consumer’ movement, prominent hair care brands have pivoted towards vegan hair care, offering 100% vegan hair products to satisfy the increasing demand. What’s more, vegan hair care
products are also cruelty-free, which means they’re not tested on animals at any point in production.

How is vegan hair care different from non-vegan hair care?

Although it might not always be obvious, there are a variety of animal-derived ingredients commonly found in hair care products. These include ingredients like lanolin from sheep’s wool, beeswax, keratin, honey, milk and more. To help make hair care vegan, some brands have developed products that substitute some of these ingredients with non-animal alternatives, while some have even created all-new plant-based formulas and
products. Today, vegan hair care is made possible with some of our favourite, deliciously fragrant plant ingredients, including shea butter, coconut oil, argan oil and rosehip. Premium products like the Atlantis Moisturising B5 Shampoo by R+Co utilise a range of aromatic plant-based products to deliver the highest quality hair care formulas that don’t rely on cruelty.

Benefits of vegan shampoo

Going all-in on plant-powered hair care has the obvious benefit of making your regular care routine cruelty-free. No animal products and no animal testing means that your hair care routine does less harm to the environment. What’s more, while vegan doesn’t necessarily mean all-natural ingredients, the best vegan shampoos and vegan conditioners usually contain fewer synthetic additives and harsh chemicals than non-vegan hair care. That’s because consumer awareness in hair care has grown on many different issues at once, encouraging brands like Oribe, R+Co and Sachajuan to develop a range of both vegan and low-additive products.

Benefits of vegan conditioner

Just like with vegan shampoo, vegan conditioners generally use fewer harsh, synthetic ingredients to nourish your hair. But opting for natural, plant-based ingredients in conditioner doesn't mean you have to miss out on the smoothing, nourishing action of your favourite conditioner. Vegan products like the Dallas Biotin Thickening Conditioner by R+Co deliver intense moisturisation to the hair, using a blend of vitamin-rich
fruits, berries and oils that leave your hair feeling strong and full.

Benefits of vegan hair oil

Hair oil is an essential part of many people’s hair care routines. Whether you’re struggling with dry, brittle hair or a flaky, dried-out scalp, using hair oil can be an effective way to strengthen your hair by delivering nourishment to the roots. Plant-based and vegan hair oils generally contain fewer harsh and synthetic ingredients than mineral oil-based products, so you can get the results you’re after without added chemicals. Check out Sachajuan’s Intensive Hair Oil for salon-quality hair nourishment without the nasty ingredients.

What hair types and concerns
benefit most from vegan hair products?

Vegan hair care products tend to use fewer harsh and synthetic ingredients than non-vegan products. That means that high-quality vegan brands are better for hair in general. But if you’ve got particularly sensitive skin, going plant-based may be the right choice for you. On the other hand, if you’ve got luscious curls to look after, the plant-based oils featured in many vegan products can help to keep your hair light and lock in moisture.
