The Seaweed Bath Co. Balance Shampoo — Eucalyptus Peppermint 12 oz, Hydrating Daily Clarifying for Normal to Oily Hair

Seaweed Bath Co. Balance Shampoo is a hydrating daily cleanser that uses sustainably harvested Atlantic seaweed, eucalyptus and peppermint to clarify oily roots while moisturizing hair ends.

Formulated to balance the scalp without stripping, this 12 oz bottle blends seaweed, pro-vitamin B5, argan and coconut oils with aloe and vitamin E for a refreshed, softer finish. The eucalyptus and peppermint aroma provides an invigorating scent profile, while the free-from formulation avoids sulfates, parabens and gluten. Bottles use 50% post-consumer recycled plastic and the brand supports ocean conservation initiatives.

How does this shampoo manage oil while keeping hair hydrated?

Balance Shampoo targets excess oil at the scalp and conditions mid-lengths to ends so hair feels clean but not dry. Seaweed and pro-vitamin B5 help clarify and support moisture retention while lightweight oils replenish and smooth strands.

• Sustainably harvested Atlantic seaweed for gentle mineral-rich cleansing.
• Pro-vitamin B5 (panthenol) to improve hydration and flexibility.
• Coconut and avocado oils to nourish without heavy buildup.
• Argan oil and vitamin E to add shine and manageability.

Is the scent strong and will it last after washing?

The fragrance blends eucalyptus’s crisp, green top notes with cool peppermint for an energizing wash-time experience; scent lingers lightly but is not overpowering. Because the formula is focused on clean ingredients and lightweight oils, the aroma provides a fresh finish that fades naturally.

• Eucalyptus for a clean, herbal note during use.
• Peppermint for a cool, refreshing undertone.
• Formulation designed to avoid heavy perfumes that mask natural hair scent.

Will this shampoo work with color-treated or sensitive scalps?

• Sulfate-free to protect color vibrancy and reduce fading.
• Vegan and Leaping Bunny certified; free of harsh ingredients.
• Suitable for daily use and formulated for all hair types including chemically treated hair.

How should I use it for best results and what can I pair it with?

Apply to wet hair, focus on massaging the scalp to lift oil and buildup, then rinse thoroughly and repeat if needed. For complete care, follow with a lightweight conditioner or the brand’s matching Balance Conditioner to hydrate ends without weighing hair down.

• Massage into wet roots and scalp for 30–60 seconds, then rinse.
• Use daily or as needed depending on oil production and styling frequency.
• Pair with a lightweight conditioner or leave-in detangler for added softness.

Who this is for: Balance Shampoo is a good fit for people with normal to oily hair who want a daily cleanser that removes excess oil but keeps ends hydrated. It’s also suitable for color-treated hair and anyone seeking cleaner, ocean-inspired ingredients and a refreshing eucalyptus-peppermint scent. If you prefer lightweight, cruelty-free formulations with recyclable packaging and a focus on sustainable seaweed sourcing, this shampoo offers a practical, everyday option.
