Quick answer

The Faith In Nature Shea & Argan Shampoo & Conditioner Set is a moisturising, 99.5% natural origin duo made for curly hair and dry scalp, with organic shea butter and zero-waste organic argan oil. It suits all curl types from wavy 2A-2C to coily 4A-4C and is free of parabens, SLS and silicones. If your hair feels dry or frizzy and you want a simple, nourishing wash-and-condition routine, this set is a strong fit.

What is shea and argan shampoo?

It is a shampoo built around two plant oils: shea butter, which is rich and creamy, and argan oil, which is light and easily absorbed. In this set, both are organic, and the argan oil is zero-waste. The formula is 99.5% natural origin and leaves out parabens, SLS and silicones. That combination makes it a moisturising wash rather than a stripping one, which is why it is aimed at curly hair and dry scalps.

Who is this set actually for?

It is formulated for curly hair and dry scalp, and the brand states it is suitable for all curl types from wavy (2A-2C) to curly (3A-3C) to coily (4A-4C). If your main complaint is tightness, flaking or that itchy feeling after washing, the shea and argan combination is designed to address that. If you have very fine, oily hair that gets weighed down easily, a richer moisturising set like this may feel too heavy, so patch test or start with less product.

Will it help frizzy hair?

Frizz often comes from hair that is dry and reaching for moisture in the air. Because this set is moisturising and silicone-free, it does not coat the strand with a smoothing film; instead it aims to leave hair better hydrated. Many people find that a nourishing shampoo for frizzy hair helps over time, but results depend on your hair's porosity and how you dry it. Use a microfibre towel or a cotton T-shirt instead of a rough terry towel, and avoid brushing dry curls.

What does it smell like, and what is the format?

The set has a sweet, 100% natural origin aroma, which the brand describes as leaving hair feeling fresh. It comes as a shampoo and conditioner duo. One version is the standard Shea & Argan Shampoo & Conditioner Set, and there is also a 500ml aluminium option for anyone trying to cut down on plastic. The aluminium version is the same duo in a larger, refill-friendly format.

How should I use it for the best results?

Wet your hair thoroughly, then apply the shampoo mainly to the scalp and massage it in; let the suds rinse down the lengths rather than scrubbing the ends. Rinse well. Apply the conditioner from mid-length to ends, leave it for a minute or two, then rinse. If your scalp is very dry, you can also use the Shea & Argan Nourishing Hair Mask as a deeper treatment once a week in place of the conditioner. Because the set is silicone-free, it will not give instant slip, so be gentle when detangling.

Quick answers to common questions

Is it good for a dry, itchy scalp?

Yes, it is specifically formulated for dry scalp, and the shea butter and argan oil are there to moisturise rather than strip. If you also have flakes, give it a few washes to see how your scalp settles. Best for dry scalp with curls or waves.

Does it work on wavy or coily hair?

The brand states it is suitable for all curl types, from wavy 2A-2C through curly 3A-3C to coily 4A-4C. The richer moisture makes it especially useful for tighter textures that tend to dry out. Suitable across the curl spectrum.

Will it make my hair greasy?

It is a moisturising set, so very fine or oily hair can feel weighed down if you use too much or apply conditioner to the roots. Start with a small amount and keep conditioner to the mid-lengths and ends. Use less if your hair is fine or oily.

Can I use it with the hair mask?

Yes. Swap the conditioner for the Shea & Argan Nourishing Hair Mask once a week, or use it after conditioning when your hair feels extra dry. Rinse thoroughly either way. Mask once a week for a deeper moisture boost.

Is it silicone-free?

Yes, like all Faith In Nature hair products in this range, it is free of silicones, parabens and SLS. That means no instant smoothing coating, so detangle gently and expect softer, not slick, hair. No silicone slip, so handle wet hair gently.
