Which shampoo should you choose? When should you use conditioner?
We know that caring for your hair can be a journey, and we don't always know where to start. Sometimes we just want someone to explain it simply, without beating around the bush or making empty promises. That's what we're here for: to guide you.
At Real Earth Stories, every formula is created by listening to those who trust in natural products. And this time, we want to help you understand how to choose your shampoo or conditioner according to your hair's needs and what it's going through.
First: cleansing
Not all hair needs the same things. And not every day is the same.
That's why we have two types of shampoo, each with a very different personality:
Rosemary & Bhringraj Shampoo
The Rosemary & Bhringraj Shampoo is a clarifying shampoo. This means it cleanses deeply without being harsh.
Ideal before applying hair dye or henna, or when your scalp needs a breather.
- Strengthens from the roots.
- Balances without drying out your hair.
- Stimulates natural hair growth.
Use it when your scalp feels weighed down, when you’re experiencing hair loss, or as a step before any natural treatment (such as plant-based hair coloring).
Shikakai & Onion Shampoo
The Shikakai & Onion shampoo is a moisturizing shampoo, ideal for everyday use, especially after coloring your hair with henna or other plant-based dyes.
A few days later, once the color has settled, your hair just needs nourishment and softness.
- Cleanses gently.
- Doesn’t strip the color.
- Maintains the scalp’s natural balance.
Next, the gentle embrace of conditioner
After cleansing comes a little act of care: conditioner.
It helps seal the cuticle, protect your hair, and give it what it needs according to its shape and texture.
Rosemary & Bhringraj Conditioner
If your hair is normal, thick, or weakened, the Rosemary & Bhringraj conditioner can be your ally.
It nourishes from the roots, strengthens without weighing hair down, and adds body without stiffness.
- Ideal for hair that needs strengthening.
- Rich in plant oils and natural proteins.
- Leaves hair flowing, strong, and full of life
Shikakai & Onion Conditioner
The Shikakai & Onion conditioner is lighter and airier.
Made for fine, oily, or frizzy hair that needs softness without added weight.
- Helps balance sebum.
- Improves manageability without leaving residue.
- Perfect for anyone looking for a lightweight hair-care routine.
So, how do I use it?
Imagine your routine as a cycle, with different moments for each step:
- Before coloring your hair or whenever your scalp needs it: Use Rosemary & Bhringraj Shampoo for a deep cleanse.
- In the days after coloring or as part of your regular routine: Choose Shikakai & Onion Shampoo to hydrate your hair and maintain its color.
- After every wash: Use the conditioner that best suits your hair type.
It’s not about using everything, all the time.
It’s about knowing when each formula can help you most.
Like watering a plant according to the season.
Your hair has its own timing, rhythms, and changes, too.
And when you understand them, caring for it stops feeling like a chore…
And becomes a ritual
