'Happy You' Gentle Shampoo

Our Happy You shampoo is a total game-changer when it comes to natural hair care, because it gives you the results without the compromises. 

Most natural shampoos either don’t give you that ‘I-just-walked-out-of-the-salon’ feel, or they have cheeky ingredients hiding in them that are not-so-good for the environment (yep - you read that right - even natural shampoos can be bad for the environment), or both. 

Not many people realise this but the excess shampoo you’ve been washing down the drain can make our turtle and dolphin friends unhappy. This includes some solid shampoo bars which use ingredients that have a rating of ‘high’ on the marine toxicity scale. 

So we set out to create a range of natural hair care products that do things differently.

Happy You is different because we’re not asking you to sacrifice results or eco-friendliness - we tick both those boxes. In fact, the results you’ll get from Happy You shampoo will be just as good as your non-natural salon shampoo. And we’ve worked incredibly hard to ensure that our formula is 100% biodegradable and  is safe for marine life.

Will your hair love the Happy You natural shampoo? 

We’ve got a hunch that you and your hair might just fall madly in love and never go back to your old shampoo ;) 

• Wavy hair will love it because… it leaves waves flowing with added shine and bounce, without the frizz.
• Fine hair will love it because… it doesn’t leave your hair feeling lank or dull. Instead it boosts shine, and softness.
• Curls will love it because… it takes care of curls with a gentle, low-poo, hydrating and conditioning cleanse.
• Coils and kinks will love it because… it’s gentle and caring for delicate hair. Extra softness and strength.
• Sensitive scalps will love it because… it combines botanicals, minerals, prebiotics and hydration to care for your scalp for soft and shiny hair (minus the urge to scratch that itch!).
• Everyone will love it because…it treads softly. It has a soft, caring touch for your hair and a soft, caring touch for mother nature.

Meet the star ingredients

Here at Happy You we use what we like to call “conscious chemistry”. It’s science-y and complicated, but what it boils down to is that we look at how ingredients function not just by themselves but in harmony with each other to give you results far better than you would ever expect from natural products. 

Our formulas are a carefully crafted blend of nature’s finest natural ingredients along with cutting edge naturally derived and nature identical ingredients. The result is a performance-first, zero compromise natural hair care range that’s sustainable, biodegradable, and kind to our waterways.

• Prebiotic Inulin - gotta love this one! It conditions, protects and adds shine and softness. Inulin makes sure there’s no build up of product in your hair and helps your shampoo rinse out easily while detangling your locks.
• Jojoba Esters - fabulous for protecting the colour in your hair so it lasts longer, and protecting you from heat damage while it’s at it.
• Betaine - helps with scalp care, keeping things as gentle as possible, increasing your hair strength, adding lustre, and reducing frizz. Wowsers.
• Rosemary - provides scalp care and stimulates blood flow for stronger, happier hair.
• Snowflower - one of our very favourite Australian botanicals helps strengthen your hair.
• Glyceryl Oleate - protects your hair and scalp’s delicate lipid layer from being stripped of its natural oils, it helps make our shampoo incredibly mild while it also softens your hair and moisturises your scalp.
• MSM - a bioavailable form of nature’s beauty mineral, sulphur, helps build hair strength and boosts scalp care by helping the other ingredients all do their job better.
