Patch test first. Avoid eye area. If contact occurs, rinse well.
Natural powders can feel mildly astringent—condition or oil-rinse ends if needed.
Store sealed, cool, dry. Use a clean, dry spoon. FAQs
Will it lather like shampoo?
It creates a mild, natural lather from plant saponins—not big foam like sulfates, but an effective cleanse.
Do I still need conditioner?
Many users add a light conditioner or leave-in on mid-lengths/ends, especially with long, dry, or curly hair.
Is it colour-safe?
Aritha is soap-free and gentle; always patch test on a small section for colour-treated hair.
Can sensitive skin use it?
Often preferred for minimalist routines. Patch test and shorten contact time if your skin is reactive.
