Vital Castor & Hemp Shampoo – Growth & Strength for Dry Scalp

A Shampoo That Cleans and Grows.

Most shampoos strip hair to clean it. The Vital Castor & Hemp Shampoo is built differently — a gentle, plant-derived cleansing base that removes buildup without stripping moisture, combined with a concentrated blend of growth-supporting oils that nourish the scalp and strengthen strands with every wash. Castor oil promotes follicle health and thicker strands. Hemp seed oil delivers essential proteins and fatty acids for strength. Argan oil restores shine. Avocado oil feeds hair with vitamins A, D, and E. Aloe vera soothes the scalp. Every wash is a treatment.

Key Benefits

• Promotes thicker, stronger hair with every wash — Castor oil (Ricinus Communis Oil) enhances hair follicle health and is widely used to support thicker, stronger strands over time. Hemp seed oil (Cannabis Sativa Seed Oil) provides essential proteins and omega fatty acids that reinforce the hair shaft and reduce breakage — so hair gets stronger with consistent use.
• Cleanses gently without stripping moisture — Decyl glucoside is a gentle, plant-derived surfactant that creates a rich lather without the harshness of conventional sulfates. Cocamidopropyl betaine (derived from coconut oil) further softens the cleansing action, making this shampoo safe for dry, sensitive, or color-treated hair.
• Restores shine and softness to dry, brittle hair — Argan oil (Argania Spinosa Kernel Oil) is one of the most effective natural oils for restoring shine and softness to damaged or dry hair. Almond oil (Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis Oil) smooths the hair cuticle for a silky, manageable finish after every wash.
• Feeds hair with growth-supporting vitamins — Avocado oil (Persea Gratissima Oil) is rich in vitamins A, D, and E that penetrate the hair shaft to promote healthy growth, reduce breakage, and improve overall hair health from the inside out.
• Soothes and conditions the scalp — Aloe vera juice (Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice) calms scalp irritation, reduces dryness, and conditions the scalp environment — creating the healthy foundation that hair growth depends on.
• Locks in moisture throughout the wash — Propylene glycol acts as a humectant that retains moisture within the hair during cleansing, while coconut oil (Cocos Nucifera Oil) deeply moisturizes and protects strands from the inside out.
