Avalon Organics Strengthening Peppermint Shampoo, 11 oz — Organic, Sulfate-Free

Avalon Organics Strengthening Peppermint Shampoo is a plant-based, certified-organic cleanser that helps fortify brittle hair while smoothing split ends and flyaways.

This gentle shampoo combines peppermint essential oil with botanicals like quinoa protein, calendula, babassu oil, aloe and vitamin E to cleanse, replenish and help restore elasticity. Formulated without parabens, harsh preservatives, synthetic colors or fragrances, and phthalates, the EWG VERIFIED and NSF-certified blend is vegan and cruelty-free. The 11 oz bottle delivers a daily-strength shampoo designed to make hair feel stronger, softer and more manageable over time with regular use.

How does this shampoo help hair that feels weak or brittle?

The formula targets fragile hair by supporting the cuticle and improving tensile strength rather than just removing dirt. Quinoa protein and vitamin E help reinforce each strand, while nourishing oils and aloe support moisture balance to reduce breakage and split ends. Regular use can lead to improved texture and reduced flyaways.

• Quinoa protein helps fortify hair fibers and protect from breakage.
• Peppermint essential oil refreshes the scalp while aiding circulation.
• Babassu oil and aloe hydrate without weighing hair down.
• Free from GMOs, parabens, synthetic dyes and harsh preservatives.

Will this shampoo work for color-treated or chemically processed hair?

This gentle, plant-derived formulation avoids harsh sulfates and damaging additives, making it suitable for many color- or chemically-treated hair types. Because the focus is on strengthening and moisture, it can help improve elasticity and reduce the appearance of split ends that often follow processing. Always follow with a conditioner recommended for your specific treatment for best results.

• Non-GMO, sulfate-free approach helps preserve color vibrancy longer.
• Hydrating agents support strands weakened by chemical services.
• Use with a compatible conditioner to seal and smooth the cuticle.

How should I use this shampoo to get the best outcome?

Wet hair thoroughly, apply a small amount of shampoo, and gently massage into scalp to create a light lather. Rinse and repeat only if needed; follow with a strengthening conditioner or mask to lock in moisture and support repair. For persistent brittleness, use consistently and pair with restorative treatments a few times a week.

• Massage gently—avoid harsh scrubbing that can cause breakage.
• Rinse thoroughly and follow with a nourishing conditioner.
• For extra care, apply a deep-conditioning mask once weekly.
