Escentia Natural Shampoo Base - 5L

Escentia Natural Shampoo Base is a non-fragranced shampoo base made with natural and naturally derived ingredients for customised hair care. It is designed for DIY use, giving you a ready-made cleansing base that can be adapted with essential oils, carrier oils, infusions, conditioning agents, or other compatible actives.

The formula offers a simpler starting point for creating a more personalised shampoo without building one from scratch. This is a shampoo base rather than a finished fragranced shampoo, so it is especially suited to makers who want flexibility in their hair care formulations. Why we love it: This base makes DIY hair care feel far more approachable.

It gives you a clean, simple foundation to build on, whether you want to keep things minimal or tailor it to specific hair preferences with your own chosen additions.
