Raw Shea Butter Shampoo

Deeply moisturising shampoo for transitioning and coarse hair

✓CGM ApprovedRaw Shea ButterProtein-FreeStep: Cleanse

Our Take

A rich, creamy shampoo for dry, coarse, or transitioning hair. Raw Shea Butter, Sea Kelp, and Argan Oil provide intense moisture during the cleanse — better suited to thicker, drier hair types than to fine or low-porosity curls. One of the longest-standing products in the SheaMoisture range and highly reviewed. Sulphate-free, protein-free. Part of the Raw Shea Butter line.

How to Use

Apply generously to wet hair — this is a richer formula than most shampoos, so you may need slightly more product than usual. Massage into the scalp and work through the lengths, then rinse thoroughly. Best on wash days when your hair needs intensive moisture rather than light daily cleansing.
