Clarifying shampoo for build-up and an oily scalp
The Rahua Rebalance Shampoo is a balancing clarifying shampoo that thoroughly removes excess oil, styling residue, and build-up without unnecessarily drying out the scalp. The shampoo is specially developed for hair that quickly feels heavy or greasy and for scalps on which product residue easily accumulates. Rahua itself explicitly describes it as a shampoo that removes build-up and is suitable for a slightly sensitive scalp.
The formula combines a powerful cleanser with Rahua oil, Sacha Inchi, calendula, and magnesium chloride. This gives you the cleansing action you expect from a clarifying shampoo, while the hair remains light and nourished after washing. Especially with frequent use of gels, creams, mousses, and other styling products, this is an interesting shampoo to use periodically in your routine.
Key active ingredients
Sodium C14-16 Olefin Sulfonate – A powerful cleanser that effectively helps remove excess oil and accumulated styling residue. It is not a classic sulfate like SLS or SLES, but it clearly cleanses more thoroughly than the mild cleansers used in many CG shampoos.
Sacha Inchi oil – Rich in omega-3 fatty acids and helps retain moisture, so that hair and scalp remain nourished after cleansing.
Rahua (Ungurahua) oil – Rahua's signature oil that nourishes the hair and helps keep it soft and supple.
Calendula – Plant extract that nourishes the scalp and is part of the balancing formula.
Magnesium chloride – A mineral that Rahua uses for its balancing effect on the scalp.
Glycerin – Helps attract and retain moisture, keeping the hair soft and supple.

PLEASE NOTE when using
This product contains Sodium C14-16 Olefin Sulfonate. Although some CG checkers approve of this ingredient because it is not a classic sulfate, it is often seen within the CG community as a stronger cleansing ingredient.
Because of this, many people use this type of shampoo as a clarifying shampoo to effectively remove build-up, excess oils, and styling residue.
It is best used alternately with a milder shampoo, depending on the needs of the hair and the amount of build-up.
