Editor’s Note: Ingredients Analysis of Coco Soul Hair and Scalp Cleanser

I must admit that this is the unique part which always catches my attention. Well! All the components are listed on the product label. So, without wasting any more time, let’s analyze the power ingredients.
Aqua:
Water is the base of any liquid-based product

It is a safe hair conditioning agent plus a great surfactant.

An absolutely safe surfactant indeed that is absolutely safe to use in shampoos and hair cleansers.

It seems that Coco Soul has used a number of surfactants as all of those are pretty mild in nature. This component is another surfactant which is mild and safe at the same time.
Glycerine:
A safe and great humectant that has been used for ages.
Acrylamidopropyltrimonium Chloride/Acrylamide Copolymer:
This component is a safe hair fixative that is not much popular though. I am glad to see that Coco Soul has done quite a research before launching their hair cleanser.

Whoa! What a name it is. The functionality of this component includes emulsification and increasing the viscosity of the formulation. Basically, it thickens the formula.

Derived from the Castor oil, this component is a moderately hazardous fragrance ingredient that is quite popular in the cosmetic industry.

Altogether, these components are pretty well-formulated and well-designed. Except a few, I have no complaints about most of the ingredients. From my side, the components are a big ‘yes’ and indeed deserves a 4.8 out of 5 ratings.
It comes in a transparent bulky plastic bottle which is great to see the actual product quantity. It has pump dispenser with a clipping system. For this reason, the product is travel-friendly. Post-application, you can lock the pump. All the important and helpful details regarding the product are labelled on the body.
It is a runny gel-based shampoo or better to say is a cleanser. It does not produce foam easily, a little bit gentle massage is required in order to do so. The cleanser looks light yellowish shade from the outer side of the packaging but in reality, it is a colourless gel which I liked a lot. The brand claims that natural herbal formulations tend to change colour over time. However, product efficacy remains unchanged.
The fragrance is like coconut dessert! I liked the pleasant smell.
