I have ever used Hesh Shikakai powder. However, I had a bad reaction from it. It might be because I have Eczema skin. Right after I put Shikakai paste on my scalp, it created super itchy feeling....

I LOVE this product. I have naturally kinky curly hair (4a) and I find this feels really great on my scalp. My hair feels clean after and not stripped. I usually mix it with other powders; henna...

I love washing my hair with shikakai and rose petal powder, especially after oiling my hair. When you use regular shampoo to try and remove hair oil you won't get it out cleanly and you may end up...

I've never been tempted to use Shikakai as a paste - I find rinsing with it in place of conventional shampoo is far easier, quicker (you only work it in/leave it for five minutes before rinsing)...

Hi, Shikakai powder is really great alternative. For non-messy use, you can boil it (preferably along with amla and ritha powder), drain, and use that water to wash your hair. Amla gives strength...

I love shikakai. The only shikakai we get here is Hesh at the Indian grocery store. It is sort of expensive for the quantity but the end result is good, not wonderful. The hair is left shiny and...

To use shikakai powder, you can mix it with enough water to make a paste. Then work it through your hair and rinse. My results were beautiful. Soft, smooth, and clean hair. The powder didn't...

I use this a few times a week (mixed with powdered amla) in place of a regular shampoo. It's a bit messy, but it works. I keep the powdered herbs in a little shaker bottle, so I can then get in...

Great alternative to regular shampoo. I use this once a week, and only use a clarifying shampoo once a month. I love the fact that this makes my hair darker and shiny. Great in combination with oil...
