FAQ

You are new to organic/natural hair care

Anytime you want to make a change in your shampoo (as we should from time to time), we suggest starting with the Hydrating or Moisturizing formula for the transition period. The transition period is the time it takes for your hair and scalp to essentially “detox” from any synthetic build-up from drugstore brands of shampoo and conditioner. These two formulas are the most widely beneficial for all hair types and are usually the best to start with.

Like all Calia shampoos + conditioners, its natural content is fabulous for your scalp and will provide a healthy environment to grow beautiful hair. We recommend using at least a full set of 240 ML bottles at minimum to allow the hair to adjust. Years of build-up from synthetic hair products can take time to remove. You will be happy you stuck it out, we promise!

You have normal hair and scalp conditions (not too oily or dry)
The Hydrating Formula or the Purifying for Normal/Dry hair generally work the best. If you have any aversion to a mild fragrance, the unscented Moisturizing formulas would be the choice as it has no essential oils.

You have dry hair and dry, itchy scalp
While all our hair products will likely be a huge improvement on whatever you are currently using, this is where the Balancing formulas can really help. The Moroccan Cedarwood oil in the Balancing is great for reducing the frizziness and “out of control” look/feel of dry, unmanageable hair, and rich cedarwood oil can sort out a dry scalp too!

You have oily hair and scalp
In this case, either the Hydrating or in tough cases, the Moisturizing or Curative Shampoos (the Curative has a slightly lower pH). It is important to use a Calia conditioner as it will help to close up the hair follicle and reduce the amount of oil your scalp secretes and thus keep your hair cleaner and looking better, longer.

You have dry hair and oily scalp
Best to use the Purifying shampoo for Dry Hair or the Balancing shampoo, with the Hydrating conditioner minding not to massage into the scalp too heavily, then spritz in the Balancing Leave-in conditioner into your hair away from scalp.

You want to remove residue from your hair
If you want to clean away any hair product residue from synthetic products or from a dirty environment, we recommend either of the new Rosemary Purifying shampoos (either the Dry hair formula or the Normal/Oily hair formula).

If your hair is very damaged from years of synthetic treatments and hair products
Quite likely, you hair is simply dry and beaten up. If it’s very dry, start with the Balancing line and then when your hair normalizes (ie. gets back in balance), you can move into the Hydrating or Purifying lines, perhaps occasionally switching back and forth depending on preference.

I’ve got split ends, what is the best product for me?
Here it’s best to start with our Intensive Conditioner. For your first few washings, use this conditioner each time you wash. Once you get your desired results you can cut down the usage frequency to perhaps once a week or just apply to the ends of the hair and rinse out. This product is great in sunny, dry climates.

How to remove the residue from all the synthetic products you've used on your hair or from a dirty environment?
While all of our super natural hair care products will do a great job, our new Purifying Rosemary shampoo + conditioners will give that extra edge in achieving your desired results. Available with Clary Sage (normal) or Cedarwood (dry).

Are Calia shampoos and conditioners okay for colour treated hair?
We keep the pH levels of our shampoos at about 5.5 and the conditioners at 4.5, so all of our products are very gentle on colour treated hair and have very little, if any, affect on colour fastness.

What is the shelf-life of Calia products?
The shelf-life of all our products is 2.5-3 years, so long as they are store in a cool, dry place.

Are your products vegan and cruelty free?
Our products are proudly 100% vegan and are cruelty free.

If there are no animal by-products, why do your ingredients say horsetail?
Horsetail is the plant that silica comes from.
