Acacia
Concinna is a small shrub-like tree which grows in the warm,
dry plains of central India. For centuries the people who
have had access to this tree have used its pod-like fruit
to clean their hair. They collect, dry and grind this pod
into a powder which is considered a superior cleanser for
"lustrous long hair" and has been reported as "promoting
hair growth and preventing dandruff". Because of these
benefits, this powder was named "shikakai" which
literally translates as "fruit for the hair" .
Typically,
shikakai is mixed with water to make a paste which is worked
through the hair. It lathers moderately and cleans hair beautifully.
It has a natural low pH, is extremely mild, and doesn't strip
hair of natural oils. Usually no rinse or conditioner is used
since shikakai also acts as a detangler. This ancient product
is probably the world's original pH balanced shampoo.
