The Shu Uemura brand was inspired by the onsens of Japan and their associations with cleanliness when formulating its hydrating Cleansing Oil Shampoo.
While cleansing oils are increasingly popular in skincare, they have not yet begun to dominate in the hair care industry – making Shu Uemura one of the few to put out such a product in North America. The oil-based nature of the shampoo ensures that it does not strip the hair of its natural oils, while the shampoo's gentle formula ensures that it adequately cleanses the hair.
The Cleansing Oil Shampoo is safe on color treated hair, is free of silicone and can be used on people with all sorts of hair types.
