At last, a shampoo pure enough to ordain our mane. Living Libations’Seabuckthorn Shampoo brings out the best in all hair types without the chemical suds! Filled with a bounty of nature's botanical essences and herbs, our shampoo will nourish and harmonize your hair without weighing down your mane. Indulge in a cascade of botanical delights showering upon your lovely locks. Healing herbs are lovingly infused in golden jojoba oil and swirled together with aromatic plant essences to create a functional work of art. Each batch takes over a month to create! This shampoo is so pure that it may be diluted to use as a body wash. Many people find that they can wash their hair less often with our Seabuckthorn Shampoo. 

The mild sudsing of the shampoo comes from the combination of coco-protein and yucca root. Coco-protein is derived from the sugars, proteins and fatty acids of organic, virgin coconut oil. Coco-protein is a non-ionic saponifer that has been tested to be *free of any recognized side effects. It is not detected in human tissue or urineand is free from ethylene oxide (which can cause nitrosamine contamination) and also free from preservatives. It has excellent dermatological compatibility and also has low environmental impact as it is highly bio-degradable. Coco-protein is not related to any of the sulfates, sulfides, or other surfactants which are best avoided. The roots of the Yucca plant have been used traditionally by Native Americans as a natural body, hair, and laundry soap. Yucca root is very high in saponins, the soap making ingredient, which causes the lather in our shampoo. This special root also has emollient properties which have a soothing effect on the hair shaft. This shampoo will invite your hair to shine and your heart to sing in the shower.

Directions: Massage a small amount into wet hair. Add water as necessary to create lather. Rinse. Apply Shine On Hair Conditioner. May be diluted further to use as a Body Wash and a bubble bath.

For Babies and Children: perfectly gentle for your pure little beings’ hair and body ~ yet, you would be amazed at how truly young hair can be liberated from the modern concepts of hair care. Here is a little secret: sometimes for fun we make a bubble bath for our son Leif with the Seabuckthorn Shampoo; yet, usually we add salt and baking soda to his bathing waters to cleanse and refresh his body and spirit. His healthy locks are clean as can be and we have only washed his hair three times in his four happy years of life!

Healthy Hair Tips: Let your hair dry naturally, in the fresh air or sun. Brush your hair upside-down several times at night with a soft, natural bristle brush. Brushing with a natural bristle brush will help with gentle cleaning, exfoliating and stimulating of the scalp, and circulating of the oils from the scalp throughout the hair. For extra special hair treatments, try these options: once a week add a drop of Lymph+Tonicto the hairbrush and then brush upside down. A nourishing home spa treatment is created by parting hair and infusing scalp with Living Libations' Scalp Tonic. Another fun option is to massage Seabuckthorn Best Skin Ever, or Radiant Love Butter throughout the hair and left on overnight. Make a jar of Oat straw tea and pour over freshly washed hair as a final rinse.

Ingredients In-depth:

Organic and/or wild crafted ingredients with pure spring water: herbal infusions of calendula, red clover, oats, coltsfoot, horsetail, comfrey, nettles, chamomile, and bladderwrack seaweed in golden jojoba oil; yucca and coco-protein to saponify; orange wax; supercritical extracts of seabuckthorn, sage, and rosemary; and essential oils of grapefruit, peppermint, vetiver, and lime.

Seabuckthorn Berry Oil, Hippophae rhamnoides, our special super-critical extract balances and harmonizes the lipid layers of the skin. It is beneficial for all skin types. Sea buckthorn gets to the root cause of imbalances in the skin by going deep within the lipid layers and healing from the inside out. Seabuckthornis extraordinarily rich and vital oil that is perfectly balanced in omega 3, 6, 7 and 9 oils. Our sea buckthorn berry oil is a special extract that is able to capture over 190 bioactive substances in one drop! The oil is also potent in antioxidants, has anti-inflammatory properties, carotenoids like beta carotene, and phytosterols that reduce redness and help heal mucous membranes. We have been using sea buckthorn in many of our formulas since 1994 and have found that it regenerates cells, protects against cell water loss and is rich in vitamins C, E, and pro-vitamins A and B. Seabuckthorn oil is also rich in lipids, beneficial fatty acids and rare palmitoleic acids. All of these extraordinary plant properties contribute to regenerate and revitalize connective tissue. Also rich in rare palmitoleic oils, our special super critical extract is able to capture over 190 bioactive healing constituents from the edible sea buckthorn berry. This oil is potent in hydrophilic and lipophyllic antioxidants such as carotenoids, ascorbic acid and tocopherols. These carotenoids have been extensively studied for their photo-protective qualities as sunscreens and protectors against intrinsic damage. Super-critical sea buckthorn oil also contains natural anti-inflammatory compounds and phytosterols that reduce redness and help heal mucous membranes.

Rosemary, Rosmarinus officinalis, Rosemary is an herbaceous revive-alive-verve-tonic with a refreshing, penetrating aroma. In our shampoo we use a special super-critical extraction that boosts rosemary in to super antioxidant classification.This type of extraction yields a potent and pure nectar of Rosemary that contains hundreds of plant bio-actives. Researchers at the University of Catania in Italy have shown that super-critical rosemary extract helps protect the skin cells which may prevent age-related skin damage. The study also showed that Rosemary antioxidant was shown to preserve a protective protein in the skin called HSP70. The role of this protein is to reduce the damage that stress, free radicals, and other toxins can do to skin cells. Rosemary antioxidant is known to help strengthen the skin’s capillaries and strengthens the stability of our shampoo. This complete symphony of Rosemary allows us to experience all the gifts that this beautiful plant has to offer our hair. Rosemaryis known for strengthening and nourishing the whole head: hair follicles, shaft, and scalp. It helps keep the hair that you have healthy and happy. Supercritical Rosemary will bring on the shine, volume and vibrancy in your hair.

Herbal Infusions in Golden Jojoba Oil:
The herbs listed below are quite well known and researched for supporting a healthy scalp and beautiful hair. Each herb is individually infused in Organic Golden Jojoba oil - some for a moon or more. The herbs blend their traditional healing properties with the soothing jojoba oil. This process enhances the therapeutic properties of both the jojoba and the botanicals. The end result is herbal infused oil that is a readily absorbed, nourishing nectar for your hair shaft and scalp.

Golden Jojoba Oil, Simmondsia chinensis, this oil is naturally rich in lipids and peptides creating a soft, silky, feel that has long lasting conditioning effects on the skin. Jojoba balances the sebum production in all skin types. It contains all forms of the natural antioxidant Vitamin E. In fact, the highest amount of tocopherols and phenolic compounds can be found in this golden oil. Like seabuckthorn oil, jojoba oil promotes healthy hair and skin because it contains many of the bio-available components that our own natural oils need. Nourishing herbs are infused in jojoba for a month to synergize their unique healing properties with this completely nourishing oil. Jojoba is so easily absorbed by the hair and makes a perfect vehicle for the deep nourishment of the herbs to be delivered to the cells in the hair and scalp.

Review(s)

I messed around, until I found this shampoo

I've used many different hair products, but I haven't found myself settling down with any of them - honestly because it's been fun to try different shampoos. After using Seabuckthorn Shampoo, I have to say that I really love how much better I feel about the kind of shampoo that I'm now using - my natural waves look a bit better than usual (though my hair has remained frizzy-ish). I'll be ordering the 1000 ml Shampoo and Conditioner combo. It's safe enough to use on my semi-colour treated hair, safe enough to be shampooed onto my body, practical enough to be diluted and used even with my toddler if need be. Without looking for a shampoo to be loyal to, I've found one. I like the smell, and again, I like the results.

Purest shampoo and body wash!!

I've been using this and only this for well over a year now. Makes for a superb, pure, gentle body wash, and of course shampoo for the hair. The whole bathroom ends up smelling so nice, like a sweet forest. I love how it is so gentle that even a newborn baby could use it. The skin is left to be very clean, and the hair clean, as well. I found this removed product build-up on the hair with continuous use. Gave a shine to my hair, its natural beauty was coming out :) Has a very unique smell. The conditioner compliments this very well. Feel so safe using this, for the whole family :) huge thumbs up!

Unbelievable

I have been using the Seabuckthorn Shampoo for two days now. It is truly a revolutionary product. My hair feels clean and soft, my scalp is singing. Next time, I will order the Gi-Normous size so that I can use it as a body wash too!

A love affair with Shampoo and Condition???

Thank you Nadine for this beautiful duo... My long red hair is just absolutely in love with your Shampoo and Conditioner.. I'm telling everyone here in Brisbane Australia all about it... Thank you again for this wonderful chemical free product.. It is truly magical... xoxoxox

Love it, but

This shampoo is fabulous - it leaves my hair so clean and soft, and best of all, it's helped bring back my curls. Living in Calgary for 13+ years, my naturally wavy/curly hair has suffered because of the dry climate and hard (HARD!) water. A couple of weeks use of this shampoo has cleared off all that mineral build up and allowed my curls to live again. The only downside for me is that it's a big strong for my dyed hair, and I noticed that my colour had faded much faster than usual. I will still use this shampoo on my hair, just not as often ... assuming that I don't use it all up as a bodywash. It's great for that too.

Profound!!!

I have just washed my hair with your shampoo and conditioner and as the subject line says, it has been the most profoundly mystical hair washing experience I have ever had! How do you do it? My hair feels the best it ever has in my entire life and childhood is the closest comparison I can remember to my hair feeling this great! This is the first time I have received an natural product where I have actually felt the effect of it improving my being right away. It might sound strange or over the top, but this alchemical blend actually ignites my desire to be in nature and to enjoy the best health ever!!! I can actual see how you guys must live in a constant state of inspiration after working with these divine plant substances day in and day out. And it definately shows in your poetry and the master blends you all are channeling.

The Best Shampoo in the World!

I have fallen completely in love with this shampoo, it cleans the hair perfectly without drying and the smell is out of this world and I love the fact that the list of ingredients is fairly short and without uncomprehensive ingredients. Thank you for creating this amazing product!!!

Magick in a bottle!!!!

I will never wash my hair, skin, or body with soap ever again. Now I have finally experienced what Shampoo actually is for the first time ever. My hair has never felt so clean, without the after feeling of a residue. This Shampoo is total Perfection and maintains a healthy scalp. I use to have dandruff and it has disappeared permanently in one week. I realize now I am allergic to soap. I have tried all of what I thought was the high end stuff, Nothing compares to this. I even use this as a body wash. It def is magical!!! mxx

Thank-you

I really love your Shampoo and Conditioner. Your dental products are truly the best..

PHENOMENAL!!!

I don't know what it is, but the shampoo/conditioner i am using that you made is PHENOMENAL!!! i have very curly dry hair and i have been searching forever for something this amazing. thank you from the root to the ends of my hair!

Heavenly

Whatever my mood might be when I get into the shower is shifted to cheerful the moment I wash my hair. I used to feel tired after the bath, and now I feel blissful. Another "side effect" is that my hair stays cleaner longer. It doesn't become oily as fast as my former hair care products would make it.

my husband said he had never seen my hair look so beautiful

My products arrived ... and SO soon. All the way to the UK. Delicious. I hadn't washed my hair for 6 days after your advice from the WISH Summit ... haven't done that for 35 years. Great experience!!! And last night, I washed and conditioned and my husband said he had never seen my hair look so beautiful. It smelled fabulous and was squeaky clean :-) Thank you SO much. Nicola

It works with my hair highlights!

I tried a small size and it doesn’t seem to strip the highlights and color that I put in my hair. I had tried other “natural” products but they stripped the color. Then I had to resort to Pureology* products which did not strip color and it’s mostly natural. Then I tried yours and it works and I don’t have to worry about what’s in it. Plus my hair feels even better. Thanks so much!

amazing

The first time I used this shampoo, I wanted to hug Nadine. I haven't had hair that felt this clean, bouncy, soft and shiny since...ever! I gave this to my mom who has always had baby fine dry hair and she suddenly was getting tons of compliments. I no longer need to bother with styling products or even drying my hair. The difference in my hair is dramatic. This product is absolute perfection.

My hair feels good!

My hair is shiny and healthy - and this shampoo is working for my coloured hair! I thought I had to stick to my shampoo for treated hair and to my delight The Seabuckthorn Shampoo is better!!

LOVE!

The shampoo/conditioner duo is the best. I've been through many "natural" shampoos (which were not truly natural, like these), and I have finally fallen in love. My fine, straight, long hair (which gets very tangled when wet - and the conditioner was unbelievably easy to comb through) is healthy, shiny, soft, bouncy, smells delicious and is not getting greasy at the scalp. I think I will be able to wash it even less often and I'm so happy I can rest assured that I'm treating my hair well - finally!!! The only caveat - with citrus, etc. in the ingredients, the shininess is unbelievable, but veers my dark brown (dyed) hair definitely towards red/blond, which is great in summer, it looks sunkissed - will have to rethink if I really intend to keep my hair dark in the future. Though these products are even tempting me to stop coloring my hair for a while and see how luscious it becomes with its natural color, that I previously always found dull...

Happy Hair

I LOVE it and use it everyday :-) Totally beautiful product and leaves my hair happy and chem free!"

WOW! This Shampoo has transformed my hair from "hay like" to silky smooth

I have thick, coarse hair, which I highlight blonde every 2 months. At 34 years old (having done the highlighting since I was 26) you can imagine my hair is pretty dry. I have the type of hair that triples in width if I air dry it, and if I dry it with a blow dryer it just looks "worn and wilted and very frayed". For the last 6 years the only hope for smooth, silky, sexy hair for me was to go to a salon and get a blowout (which now that I live in the NYC are costs $35). I don't like having to rely on another person and spend that much money for my hair to look half way decent. I LOVE LOVE LOVE this shampoo! It is the first ever shampoo that gaurentees me a PERFECT HOME BLOW OUT. For all you semi-goddess divas out there, this is YOUR HAIR TONIC! I don't normally take the time to review, but this product is amazing. Not only has it relieved the stress of wondering whether or not I'm going to waste my time blow drying my hair, but it has made my hair look like it did when I was 12. Thank you SO MUCH NADINE and RON for creating such a top notch product that actually WORKS!!! I am over the moon!

I am hooked! What a fine product line you have created Ms. Nadine!

I have been seriously spoiled by Nadine Artemis and her Living Libations products. I tried them out (shampoo, conditioner and underarm charm) a few months ago, and then thought I'd switch to something else after, but since then nothing else has compared. I am hooked! What a fine product line you have created Ms. Nadine! My hair is very thick and wavy (even though it is always flat ironed and straight in my photos). It is also color treated & therefore a bit dry and damaged (I have highlights). I wasn't a fan right off the bat. The first shampoo I did not like it. After I got out of the shower, my hair felt like I had wax in it. I didn't get it. And the conditioner was really light and I thought is wasn't "rich enough". I thought the product was faulty. I even contacted the company. They immediately replaced the product (amazing customer service) but I realized it wasn't the product at all. My hair felt waxy residue from the wax from other shampoos and conditioners that were being removed. Then I actually came to enjoy the light conditioner. I noticed my hair felt softer, smoother, cleaner, lighter, and had more volume since it wasn't all gunked down. If I needed to tame any fly aways a very light touch of coconut oil did the trick perfectly. My scalp felt great, my hair felt great. Once I ran out of product I swtiched to another natural shampoo and conditioner and I immediately felt the waxy residue on my hair again. It feels like it never really gets clean. I think I never really knew what clean hair felt like until I used Nadine Artemis products. Note: these products will not be like your "common" products and you will really appreciate the difference."

Thank You!

Dear Nadine, Thank you for sharing your passion for health and beauty with the world. The integrity of your products is unsurpassed. I love your hair care and tooth care products. Greatful:)
