HerbtoniQ Shikakai Powder (Acacia concinna) for Hair – Natural Hair Wash Powder – 500 g (Pack of 4 × 125 g)

This 500 g value pack of HerbtoniQ shikakai powder for hair is made for people who have switched to herbal hair washes for good. Shikakai – the dried pods of Acacia concinna – has been the traditional Indian hair cleanser for centuries, washing away dirt and oil while letting hair keep its natural softness.

Key Benefits

• Cleans hair and scalp gently, without stripping natural oils.
• Leaves hair soft, shiny and easier to detangle.
• Naturally low pH, so many people skip the conditioner.
• Helps keep a dry-feeling scalp comfortable as part of your hair care routine.
• Four separate packs mean the powder stays fresh through regular use.

What’s Inside

4 packs × 125 g = 500 g of shikakai powder (Acacia concinna). The pods contain natural saponins that create a light, gentle lather. Shikakai is traditionally paired with reetha (soapnut) for more lather and amla for extra conditioning.

How to Use

1. Mix 2–3 tablespoons of shikakai with warm water to a thin paste.
2. Wet your hair, massage the paste into the scalp for 2–3 minutes and work it through the lengths.
3. Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water, keeping it away from the eyes.
4. For a decoction, boil 2 tablespoons shikakai (with reetha and amla if you like) in two cups of water for 10 minutes, cool, strain and use as a wash.
5. As a hair pack, mix with curd and leave on scalp and hair for 30–45 minutes before rinsing.
6. Patch test behind the ear 24 hours before first use.

Who Is It For

Men and women of every hair type who wash with herbs regularly, families who share one supply, and salons offering herbal hair spa services.

Why HerbtoniQ

FAQs

Is shikakai powder good for oily hair?

Yes. It cleanses well while staying gentle. For very oily scalps, mix it with a little reetha for extra cleansing.

Do I need conditioner after shikakai?

Many people do not, because shikakai has a naturally low pH. Long or very dry hair may still like a little oil or conditioner on the ends.

How long does a 500 g shikakai pack last?

At 2–3 tablespoons per wash, two or three times a week, one person can expect several months of use.

For external use only. Do a patch test before first use.
