Onion shampoo uses sulphur and antioxidants from onion extract to strengthen roots and reduce hair fall. It fits well in sulphate-free routines focused on scalp health and shine. Many Indian vegan formulas blend red onion with plant actives like ginseng or keratin for balanced nourishment.
Apply a small amount to wet hair, massage for 30 seconds, then rinse thoroughly. Follow with a conditioner or mask two to three times weekly. Using red onion hair oil before shampooing enhances nourishment and helps manage seasonal shedding.
