The Essential One - Alkaline Shampoo

The Essential One supports you as you make the switch to genuine organic cosmetics— gentle, effective, and clarifying.


With its mild sugar-based surfactant, it cleanses your scalp without drying it out and helps remove residue from conventional hair care products from your hair and skin.
This relieves your scalp, allowing your hair to breathe freely again—and bringing you closer to your natural hair texture, step by step.

After application, a delicate, lemony-floral scent lingers—fresh, crisp, and all-natural.

Ideal for:

– flaky or itchy scalp
– scalp that gets oily quickly

Capacity

200 ml

Example of use

When washing your hair, apply the shampoo to your scalp and massage it in. You don’t need to lather the lengths of your hair right away—it happens on its own.

The Essential One can also be used for daily hair washing without drying out your scalp. We recommend thoroughly brushing your hair and scalp with a boar bristle brush before washing. This has a cleansing effect, and you’ll notice that you no longer need to wash your hair as often.


Tip: Combine washing your hair with a scalp massage. This helps distribute the shampoo more evenly across your scalp while also promoting relaxation. You can shampoo your hair a second time without damaging it.

The Transition: Why Your Hair Needs Time Right Now

Conventional shampoos and conditioners often contain silicones and synthetic film-forming agents. While these immediately give the hair a smooth, shiny feel, they coat the hair like a layer and can weigh down the scalp.

With our organic products, your hair will now begin to shed this artificial coating. This is what’s known as the “detox effect.”

  • What happens? At first, your hair may feel dull, heavy, or get oily more quickly. This is a sign that old buildup is being washed away and your scalp needs to readjust to its natural function.
  • The good news: This effect is completely normal and temporary. It typically lasts 2 to 6 weeks. After that, your hair will finally be able to fully absorb the high-quality, natural ingredients and reveal its natural, healthy shine.

Note: Give your hair this time. This is the only way it can regenerate from the roots in the long term.

How many washes do your shampoos last for?

That's generally a difficult question to answer, because everyone has different hair and different hair-washing habits.

We recommend using 10–15 ml of shampoo per wash. Depending on how often you wash your hair, this should last you up to 1–3 months.

We always recommend using a boar-bristle brush with the shampoos so that you can distribute the oils evenly throughout the lengths of your hair on days when you don't want to wash it.

In our experience, this allows you to keep your hair looking nice and clean for several days between washes.

How does the application differ from that of conventional products?

At True Organic Cosmetics, we strive to offer you products that are easy and convenient to use. Our products have been formulated to be used in much the same way as conventional products. If you already have experience with conventional products, you won’t notice any major differences when using ours.

However, due to the natural ingredients and the use of sustainable packaging materials, there may be some differences. We therefore recommend that you carefully read the instructions on the packaging of our products before using them. If you have any further questions about how to use our products, our staff will be happy to assist you.

How long do your products last?

The shelf life of our products varies depending on the product type and storage conditions. Generally, the shelf life of our products ranges from 6 to 12 months. To maintain the quality of our products, proper storage and adherence to usage instructions after opening are essential.

We recommend protecting our products from direct sunlight and high temperatures to ensure optimal shelf life. It is advisable to check the expiration date on the product packaging to ensure that the product is still in optimal condition and can be used.

The freshness and effectiveness of our products are important to us, and we are confident that following these recommendations will ensure the best possible experience for our customers.
