The Best Vegan Hair Care Products

Vegans are normally known for their unusual eating habits. They refuse to eat any animal products at all: no meat, fish or poultry; no eggs, milk, dairy, or honey.

However, an authentic vegan lifestyle goes well beyond mere food. A committed vegan will eschew whenever possible any products derived from animals. Thus vegans do not wear leather, wool or silk. When they shop for body care and hair care products, vegans insist on products that are not only free of any non-plant-based ingredients, but also that have not been tested on animals in any way.

Fortunately, vegan hair care products are fairly easy to find, because there is no need whatsoever for hair care products to contain animal-based ingredients or for a animals to be confined, tortured, and tested for the sake of beautiful hair.

Vegan Hair Care – Lush Solid Shampoos

Lush hair care products are one of veganism’s best kept secrets. Lush makes fresh, handmade cosmetics from organic materials with no animal products and no animal testing. Lush marks all its vegan products with a green-and-white “V” to make it easy for vegans to shop.

Lush Ultimate Shine is an organic shampoo bar that leaves you hair flecked with tiny gold specks. The bar lasts a very long time, according to reviewers on the Lush site, and leaves hair shiny and silky and squeaky clean. The secret ingredients are special oils that balance your scalp’s oil production, and violet scent to relieve anger and anxiety.

Vegan Hair Care – Lush Bottled Shampoos

Rehab is an intense bottled shampoo with a fresh mint-rosemary fragrance that is guaranteed to both soothe and pick up your spirits. At $12.45 for a 3.3 ounce bottle, Rehab is a little spendy for notoriously tightwad vegans. However, reviewers insist they would pay $50 for this shampoo because of its restorative properties. Rehab is well worth the investment. Vegan hair care has never been so easy – or so luxurious.

Vegan Hair Care – Conditioners

Veganese is a “lavender and lemon garden of goodness” that is guaranteed to keep your hair in shape, shiny, and tangle-free. Full of yummy-smelling ingredients like rosemary, lemons, and rosemary, Veganese softens your hair and gives you an aromatherapy treatment all at once.

Vegan Hair Care – Styling Gels

One reason vegans love Lush because so many of its products are animal-friendly. All three of Lush’s styling gels are vegan: Goth Juice, Kind of Mods, and The Big Tease. Each gel brings its own level of control, from mild to fierce.
