Take the hair assessment and I'll rate this product for your hair type.
Take the hair assessmentThe KUNDAL Honey & Macadamia Shampoo contains 10,000 ppm of honey and macadamia and 10,000 ppm of plant-derived erythritol to hydrate and nourish hair. Containing 44 natural plant-derived extracts and 5 natural plant-derived oils, KUNDAL's Honey & Macadamia Nature Shampoo only contains EWG Green Grade ingredients for a safe and gentle cleanse. KUNDAL's Honey & Macadamia Nature Shampoo only contains plant-derived surfactants for a rich lather and is dermatologically tested for a gentle cleanse suitable for everyday use on all hair types.
Written from the ingredient list. Where it describes how a formula behaves, that is inferred from what the ingredients are and where they sit in the list, not measured.
Honey & Macadamia Shampoo is a shampoo from Kundal, aimed at fine hair, straight hair and wavy hair. On the evidence of its ingredient list, the formula works on moisture, frizz control and oil control. The ingredients doing most of that work are Lauryl Glucoside, Sodium Cocoyl Isethionate and Glycerin. The list runs to 78 ingredients, 20 of which carry a role we recognise for hair.
It is sulfate-free: the cleansing is done by Lauryl Glucoside and Sodium Cocoyl Isethionate, milder surfactants that leave more of the hair's own oil behind.
The formula reads as lightweight: humectants lead and there is little in the way of heavy oil or silicone, so it should not weigh fine hair down. There are no silicones in the list. The formula leans to moisture rather than protein.
There is a small amount of protein in the list: Arginine.
For the scalp itself the formula carries Melaleuca Alternifolia Leaf Extract, Rosmarinus Officinalis Leaf Extract and Panthenol. On an oily scalp the richer ingredients here can read as greasy at the roots.
It is the first step of a wash: it goes on wet hair before anything else. Moisten hair and scalp with lukewarm water. Apply an appropriate amount to your hands, foam and massage your hair and scalp. Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water.
Nothing in this formula is aimed at protein & strength, volume / lightweight, curl definition and color protection — not a fault, just the shape of what is in the bottle, and the reason one product rarely covers a whole routine. No ingredient here is one we recognise as supporting hair growth. Reducing breakage and growing hair are different things, and this formula's evidence is for the first.
