At Desert Essence, we believe that great hair days begin and end with the power of botanicals — hair care that’s infused with good-for-you ingredients. You’ll find nutrient-rich ingredients such as coconut and tea tree oil in our plant-based* shampoos, conditioners and treatments that help keep hair healthy and radiant.

What is Botanical Hair Care, Anyway?

At Desert Essence, we harness the power of botanicals to help you maintain beautiful hair. Our philosophy is that plant-derived ingredients nourish your locks so that they can be their healthiest and loveliest without any unnecessary additives. From jojoba oil to radishes, effective hair care doesn't need to be full of unknowable chemicals for you to expect wonders. Many of our shampoos and hair treatments also take advantage of the benefits of tea tree oil, organic coconut oil, jojoba oil, lemon peel extract and more.

Benefits of Using Cruelty-Free Botanical Hair Care Products

Our cruelty-free hair care essentials include everything from hydrating shampoos and plant-based* hair conditioners to targeted styling products and hair masks. No animal is harmed in the making of our products. All of our products are 100% vegetarian, and we're proud to say that we're certified cruelty-free by the Leaping Bunny Program, the global gold standard for eliminating animal testing. We only source the very best botanical ingredients from suppliers who also abide by our cruelty-free standards.

Types of Desert Essence Hair Care Products

At Desert Essence, we carry a variety of different types of hair care products. We’ve got the basics, such as shampoos for cleansing the hair and conditioners for restoring hair shine. You can also maintain beautiful hair with our hair styling products that smooth, define and protect hair. To add a boost of smoothness and shine to your mane, apply a hair cream or lotion to keep frizz at bay. Use a curling iron every day? Reach for a hair heat protector. Every so often, remember to treat your locks to an anti-breakage hair mask!

How to Choose the Right Hair Care Products for Your Hair

The benefits of using botanical hair care products are endless. That said, your hair's needs will definitely define which plant-powered key ingredient will best serve you — we’ve got different products and routine tips for different hair types! Coconut oil shampoo and conditioner, for example, are excellent for dry hair in need of extra nourishment. Products with tea tree oil will help with clarifying hair by removing buildup and lifting away pollutants. Have damaged hair in need of enrichment? Indulge your locks to a shampoo and conditioner with mango seed butter. If you have color-treated hair, take the preventative step of supporting hair from environmental damage with hair care that includes grape seed oil.

Whether you’re searching for formulas made with nourishing organics, hair solutions that tame frizz or fragrance-free hair care products, our beautifying botanicals leave your hair and scalp feeling clean, healthy and balanced.
