New to vegan hair care? Read on to discover everything you need to know about making the switch to our plant-based, 100% vegan shampoos and conditioners.
How can a vegan diet affect hair health?
The number of people following a vegan diet is increasing year on year yet few vegans consider the impact following a vegan lifestyle could have on the health of their hair.
Healthy hair is reliant on a specific set of nutrients including; essential fatty acids, vitamins A, B, C, and D and the minerals Calcium, Zinc, Iron and Copper. Without an ample supply of these nutrients the volume of blood supplied to the scalp can be compromised and this can result in the hair feeling greasy, dull and flat.
Those following a vegan diet can be at risk of missing out on some crucial dietary vitamins as well as Calcium, Iron and Omega-3 fatty acidsi. For this reason, it is important that vegans care for their hair using plant-based hair care that’s enriched with essential oils known to strengthen hair follicles and encourage healthy hair growth.
What makes our vegan shampoos so good?
Every product in the Green People hair care range is approved by the Vegan Society and PETA. This verifies that our hair care does not contain any animal derivatives and affirms that our products are 100% cruelty free. But what makes our vegan shampoos and conditioners so effective at keeping hair healthy?
- They are entirely free from silicones, parabens and harsh synthetic detergents like SLS, a skin-irritating ingredient which can denature hair proteins

WHICH GREEN PEOPLE VEGAN SHAMPOO & CONDITIONER IS BEST FOR YOUR HAIR?
Not sure which vegan shampoo and conditioner is best for your hair? An easy way to find your ideal shampoo is to check the ingredients list and match the plant extracts and essential oil to your hair type.
Best vegan shampoo for dry or damaged hair
Sandalwood is the ideal essential oil for rejuvenating dry, damaged hair. This rich natural oil is thought to support the hair protein keratin and has even been linked to stimulating hair growthii.
Sandalwood is a key ingredient in our Intensive Repair Shampoo and, to deliver an extra strong protein-punch, we combine it with Quinoa. This hair-smoothing natural protein is known to protect hair colour and adds strength and volume to weak, brittle hair.
Best vegan shampoo for oily hair
Has switching to a greener lifestyle left you with greasy roots? Look for hair care containing Lavender.
A key ingredient in our Irritated Scalp Shampoo, this soothing, inflammatory plant helps bring scalps that are over-producing oil back into balance. Another benefit of this plant-based ingredient is its sweet natural scent. This cannot be tolerated by headlice so is a great natural way to keep nits at bay.
Best vegan shampoo for frizzy hair
Frizzy hair lacks moisture not oils, so be sure to wash your hair with a Moisturising Shampoo.
For extra hydration select a shampoo with a high concentration of Aloe Vera. Noted for its soothing properties, Aloe Vera contains mucopolysaccharides which combine with water to provide intense hair hydration. Rich in essential nutrients and amino acids Aloe Vera also helps to balance the scalp’s natural pH levels and restores shine, strength and lustre to the hair.
Best vegan shampoo for dandruff prone scalp
If you are prone to dandruff, opt for a shampoo containing antibacterial essential oils like Rosemary and Tea Tree. Used in our Green People for Men No. 10 Itch Away Shampoo, these anti-inflammatory essential oils have strong antibacterial properties and gently cleanse and relieve itchy, flaky scalps.
