Rahua Enchanted Island Shampoo Refill for Men and Women

The Rahua (ra-wa) name is derived from the rare ungurahua nut, found in the Amazon rainforest. Rahua oil is a highly effective treatment for transforming dry, damaged hair, giving it noticeable shine and health and nourishing and soothing skin. By purchasing ONE Rahua product, you are in return helping to preserve ONE Acre of pristine Rainforest! Yes, we get our signature oils from indigenous Amazonians who have passed down their ancestral knowledge through generations. Buying these oils crafted in this way helps support the rainforest and its most stalwart defenders: its inhabitants. All Rahua products are formulated and made in the USA. No, all Rahua(R) products are cruelty free. We do not test products on animals, nor use any animal proteins in the making of any Amazon Beauty products.

Our ethos goes beyond fair trade. Rahua is committed to preserving not only the Amazon rainforest, but also the indigenous people who call it home. We are dedicated to defending the Amazon rainforest and strengthening its communities financially and by educating them about their human and intellectual rights. We have a robust protocol in place that allows us to scrutinize all ingredients and their origin. Every single ingredient must pass this vetting process. Our products are processed under the most rigid protocols. Our labs and manufacturing facilities are safe, clean and certified as USDA approved organic facilities.

Yes, our products are made with pure plant-derived ingredients, USDA-certified organic ingredients, and handmade Symbiotic tribal oils from the Amazon rainforest. Yes, all Rahua products are vegan. The maker of Rahua, is committed to preserving and sustaining both animal and plant life and the environments in which they live. Yes, Rahua products are gluten-free. In lieu of beauty ingredients which typically contain gluten, we use quinoa. We discovered that this superfood from the Andes Mountains has a small molecular weight, which allows it to penetrate deeper, strengthening hair and improving skin's elasticity.

Yes, Rahua's products have a pH of 4.5 – 5.5, which is the same range found in healthy hair and skin, making it an excellent choice for all hair types and conditions, including color-treated hair. Yes, Rahua beauty products are made with natural, plant derived and USDA approved organic ingredients. Our products are free of harsh ingredients and animal proteins. Symbiotic is Rahua's signature standard. In order for an ingredient to be classified as Symbiotic, it must be rainforest grown in undisturbed virgin forest, harvested and prepared using indigenous knowledge by people indigenous to the virgin forest environment, and it must be purchased at a price that helps to grow and empower the indigenous people.

The majority of other oil-based products use chemical fillers and silicones, which coat your hair, providing short-term results. Rahua products are made with pure handmade oils and organic and plant-derived ingredients. Rahua oil has an extraordinarily small molecular structure, which deeply penetrates the hair, bonding to and repairing the cortex, while smoothing the cuticle to create lustrous and healthy hair.

Rahua products—known for their pure ingredients and unparalleled performance—would not be today if not for a marvelous confluence of events. Fabian Lliguin, a renowned hairstylist and colorist in New York City was visiting the rainforest as an environmentalist, educating indigenous people about their land rights and human rights when he realized he was surrounded by women with fantastically long, lustrous hair that cascaded past their waists. The secret, the women told Fabian, was rahua oil. For centuries the members of the tribe, who live deep within the rainforest, had relied on this oil to nourish their hair and skin.
