Aloe Vera Shampoo

The Rahua Aloe Vera Shampoo is a balancing shampoo for all hair types - especially when the scalp is sensitive or quickly feels dry, unbalanced, or weighed down by styling residue.

Aloe vera, cucumber extract, and witch hazel provide moisture and support a pleasantly clear, balanced scalp feel. Rahua, morete, and sacha inchi oils complement the formula with plant-based care, while guayusa, calendula, and green tea round out the botanical composition. The delicate scent of fresh cucumber feels crisp, light, and pleasantly subtle.

• Balancing shampoo for all hair types, especially sensitive or dry-prone scalps.
• Removes excess sebum, dirt, and styling residue from the hair and scalp.
• Provides freshness, lightweight moisture, and natural shine.
• Cleanses thoroughly without unnecessarily weighing down the lengths.
• With aloe vera, cucumber extract, witch hazel, Rahua, morete, and sacha inchi oils.
• Also suitable for color-treated hair.
• Sulfate-free, silicone-free, paraben-free, phthalate-free, vegan, and cruelty-free.
• Scent: fresh cucumber.

The balanced formula combines thorough cleansing with lightweight plant-based care. Aloe vera and plant-derived glycerin help retain moisture in the hair and scalp. Cucumber extract provides a refreshing care experience, while witch hazel is traditionally valued for its clarifying and balancing properties.

Rahua oil is rich in omega-9 fatty acids and supports soft, naturally shiny lengths. Morete and sacha inchi oils complement the care with valuable lipids without making the hair feel heavy. Hydrolyzed quinoa helps the hair surface look cared for and smooth and improves combability.

The result is clean, lightweight, healthy-looking hair with natural shine, along with a pleasantly fresh scalp feel.

Who is it for?

Rahua Aloe Vera Shampoo is suitable for all hair types. It is particularly suitable for sensitive, occasionally unbalanced, or dry-prone scalps, as well as fine to normal hair that needs thorough cleansing without a weighed-down feeling.

The formula is also a good choice for color-treated hair. For very dry, thick, or strongly frizz-prone lengths, Rahua Hydration Shampoo is the richer alternative.

Rahua combines plant knowledge from the Amazon with modern, natural hair care. At its heart is valuable ungurahua oil, which Indigenous communities have used for hair care for generations. With its proprietary Symbiotic® Standard, Rahua sources selected plant ingredients in direct collaboration with local communities, combining high-quality plant care with the long-term protection of the Amazon rainforest.

Rahua lines at a glance

Classic - the all-rounder for all hair types
When you have no pronounced hair or scalp concerns and are looking for balanced care. Rahua oil, quinoa, and palo santo cleanse, care for, and strengthen the hair without unnecessarily weighing it down. Ideal for: normal hair and simple daily hair care.

Voluminous - for fine, thin, or quickly greasy hair
The lightest Rahua line for more fullness, texture, and volume. It cleanses thoroughly without weighing the hair down and is especially suitable when the roots become greasy quickly. Ideal for: fine to normal hair, little volume, and roots that become greasy quickly.

Hydration - for dry, thick, and curly hair
The most moisturizing line in the range. Mango, sacha inchi, and other plant actives provide intensive care for dry lengths, smooth frizz, and improve softness. Ideal for: dry, thick, curly, or frizz-prone hair.

Enchanted Island - for strengthening, vitamin-rich care
A versatile line for all hair types focused on strengthening the hair and providing intensive plant-based care. A plant-based biotin complex, pomegranate, and guava support resilient, vibrant-looking hair. Ideal for: all hair types, especially when strengthening and care are the priorities.

Color Full - for color-treated and highlighted hair
Targeted care for colored hair. The line helps maintain color vibrancy, balance unwanted warm tones, and protect the hair from external influences. Ideal for: color-treated, tinted, or highlighted hair.

Aloe Vera - for dry, irritated scalps
Lightweight moisture and soothing scalp care with aloe vera, witch hazel, and guayusa. The line cleanses gently and is particularly pleasant when the scalp tends toward dryness, tightness, or irritation. Ideal for: dry or irritated scalps and hair that needs lightweight moisture.

Rebalance - for buildup, excess sebum, and mildly sensitive scalps
The most minimalist Rahua line: it removes buildup and excess sebum, restores balance to the scalp, and contains no added fragrance. The lightweight care is also suitable for regular hair washing. Ideal for: mildly sensitive scalps that are also prone to buildup or becoming greasy quickly.

What about heavier buildup?
Scalp Exfoliating Shampoo is not a separate care line, but a more intensive addition for occasional deep cleansing. It exfoliates the scalp and is used before regular shampoo when there is heavier buildup. Rebalance, on the other hand, is the better choice if you want to cleanse and clarify regularly.

In brief:
Classic = balanced all-round care · Voluminous = fine hair & volume · Hydration = dryness & frizz · Enchanted Island = strengthening & care · Color Full = color-treated hair · Aloe Vera = dry, irritated scalp · Rebalance = buildup, sebum & mildly sensitive scalp

Key ingredients

• Aloe Vera & Glycerin: Aloe vera provides moisture to the hair and scalp and helps counteract a dry, tight feeling after washing. Together with plant-derived glycerin, it supports moisture balance and helps the hair feel soft, smooth, and cared for despite thorough cleansing.
• Witch Hazel & Cucumber Extract: Witch hazel has astringent and sebum-regulating properties, making it particularly interesting for scalps that quickly feel coated or unbalanced. Cucumber extract complements the formula with lightweight, refreshing plant care - for a pleasantly clear, fresh scalp feel without unnecessarily drying out the lengths.
• Rahua Oil (Ungurahua): This traditional Amazonian oil is rich in oleic acid (omega 9) and nourishes dry, porous, or stressed areas of the hair with valuable lipids. It supports a smoother hair surface, improves softness and natural shine, and helps counteract a rough or brittle hair feel.
• Morete & Sacha Inchi Oils: In addition to nourishing fatty acids, morete oil contains carotenoids and tocopherols with antioxidant properties. Sacha inchi oil is characterized by a very high content of unsaturated omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids as well as tocopherols. Together, these lightweight plant oils complement cleansing with lipid-rich care, improve softness and shine, and support dry or stressed hair without making it feel heavy.
• Hydrolyzed Quinoa & Glycine: These plant-based protein components and amino acids support the care of stressed hair fibers and adhere to porous or rough areas of the hair surface. This can make the hair feel smoother and softer, improve combability, and enhance shine - especially valuable for dry, damaged, or color-treated hair.
• Guayusa, Green Tea & Calendula: Guayusa and green tea provide polyphenols and other antioxidant plant compounds that help the hair and scalp protect themselves against oxidative stress caused by external influences. Green tea has also been studied for its ability to protect hair proteins from oxidative and UV-related damage. Calendula complements the plant complex with soothing care and supports a pleasant scalp feel.
