Kiyoko's Notes

A rebalancing hair shampoo featuring Japanese hot spring algae.

ONSENSOU Hot Spring Algae Essence Scalp Care Shampoo contains seaweed extract from the hot thermal springs of Beppu, a city in Japan famous for their hot springs. This shampoo is gentle and sulfate-free and does everything from rebalancing your roots to adding light hydration to the hair. The Onsensou Scalp Care Shampoo focuses on hair growth with a regular and mild variant -both of which cleanses the scalp while infusing the hair with vitamins and nutrients. 

Regular

Menthol-Infused: Contains menthol, offering a cooling sensation that can invigorate the scalp but may not be suitable for those with sensitive skin.
Standard Ingredients: Focuses on core active ingredients like algae extract and hydrolyzed yeast extract without the addition of botanical oils.
Cleansing Action: Employs a combination of surfactants, including sodium C14-16 olefin sulfonate and cocamidopropyl betaine, to cleanse the scalp and hair.

Mild

Menthol-Free: Designed for sensitive scalps, it omits menthol to prevent potential irritation.
Botanical Oils: Incorporates four nourishing oils—jojoba, argan, avocado, and mango—to provide added moisture and shine to the hair.
Gentle Cleansing: Utilizes a mild amino acid-based surfactant (sodium methyl cocoyl taurate), ensuring a creamy, low-irritant foam suitable for delicate skin.
