What is S10 Hair & Scalp Shampoo?
A fragrance-free, colour-free shampoo for washing your hair and scalp, made by Naturopath Recommended. It's a scalp-friendly, low irritant and healthy shampoo for all hair types, custom blended just for you and your low-tox life.
How do I use S10?
- Wet hair thoroughly with warm running water.
- Work the shampoo onto wet hair and scalp, and lather up.
- Rinse well with warm running water.
Can I use S10 on my face and body?
Yes. Our S10 hair and scalp shampoo suits the face and body, including the more delicate skin of the face and neck. It's a premium high quality hair shampoo that doesn't contain the cheap and nasty ingredients most do, made with high-quality, skin-friendly and natural ingredients. The whole family will love it, lovingly made for all skin types, ages or genders.
Is S10 pH balanced?
Yes. It's pH 5.5, which is about the same as skin. The pH scale runs from 0 to 14, and skin is slightly acidic. We want to support healthy skin so it can retain moisture, maintain a strong microbiome and keep those annoying irritations away.
What's not in S10?
It contains no SLS, SLES, phosphates, parabens, phthalates, phenoxyethanol, fragrances, colours, palm oil, triclosan or ingredients that are classed as hazardous.
What's in S10?
Aqua, sodium laurylglucosides hydroxypropylsulfonate, sodium cocoyl glutamate (coconut surfactant), glycerine, guar hydroxypropyltrimonium chloride (guar gum), glyceryl oleate, gluconolactone and sodium benzoate, and glyceryl caprylate (coconut emollient).
Do I need a different shampoo for my hair type?
No. The formulas for dry, oily, damaged and normal hair don't differ much. A shampoo for every hair type is excellent marketing that doesn't serve a practical purpose. If your hair is very dirty or oily, use a little more product. With an excellent formula we don't believe you need a shampoo for every hair type; just a little common sense is required.
Is S10 septic-safe?
Yes. It's septic and grey water safe, and 100% biodegradable. It's also eco-friendly and sustainable.
How should I refill bottles or dispensers?
Only refill after cleaning the bottle or bulk-fill dispenser thoroughly and letting it dry completely. That's good hygiene practice.
How do I open the box?
Don't use any sharp objects.
- Lay the box on its side with the perforated (dotted) opening facing up.

What ingredients do you avoid when making your hair shampoo?
We formulate for our family and friends, so there are a few fussy ones to keep happy and lots of ingredients we are not comfortable using. Most hair shampoos are non-hazardous but nearly always contain hazardous ingredients. We prefer naturally derived, skin-friendly ingredients and use standard INCI names so you can easily do your own research. Rest assured, this formula contains no SLS, SLES, phosphates, parabens, phthalate, phenoxyethanol, fragrances, colours, palm oil, triclosan or ingredients that are classed as hazardous.
