Smooth'n glow hair bath, gentle cleansing for rebellious, frizzy hair

For frizzy hair, the washing step

For hair that comes out of the shower squeaking and tangled, a conditioner drawn from the guar bean stays on the strand as the lather rinses away. Biodynamic Damask rose draws the roughened surface flat while upcycled apple seed oil seals it against damp air.

with Biodynamic Damask Rose

An astringent flower extract that closes the surface of the strand while it is open and full of water. Biodynamic is the strictest certified growing standard there is, with no synthetic inputs at any stage.

with Organic Caraway Seed

A rare fatty acid from the caraway seed that leaves softness behind even through a wash. Certified organic, grown without synthetic pesticides.

with Upcycled Apple Seed Oil

A linoleic-rich oil close enough to the hair's own fats to stay behind after rinsing. Upcycled, so the seeds are recovered from fruit already grown for another purpose rather than farmed separately for cosmetics.

What it does

  • Rough After Washing. For hair that comes out squeaking and tangled, a conditioner drawn from the guar bean stays on the strand as the lather rinses away
  • Washing Often. Mild cleansers from coconut and sugar carry most of the work, so frequent washing does not leave the lengths stripped
  • Frizz In Humidity. Upcycled apple seed oil seals the strand so damp air finds nothing to lift
  • Dull Lengths. Biodynamic Damask rose is naturally binding, drawing the roughened surface flat so light meets one plane instead of scattering
  • Long Or Thick Hair. The lather builds creamy enough to carry all the way to the ends, so you are not scrubbing them to get them clean

The bottle is part of the formula

Every Oway bottle is glass and aluminium. No plastic means no leaching and no microplastics in your formula. Glass keeps out light, air and moisture, so the formula arrives as it left the lab.

About our packaging

Grown at Ortofficina

Love the smell and feel of oway products hair feels great

★★★★★ Anonymous

I really love how this product makes my hair feel!

★★★★★ Mary HylandVerified buyer

This is a great hair wash if you’ve got fine hair like me that tends to frizz. A little bit goes a long way and shampoos into a substantial lather, greatly reducing any frizz you may have. I also have the hair oil which is exceptional for smoothing. All in all I’m very pleased with these hair products.

  • Glass and aluminium packaging, no plastic

Can I use it every wash day without stripping my hair?
Yes. It is mild enough for frequent washing: cleansers from coconut and sugar do most of the work, so the lengths are not stripped bare.
Will my hair come out tangled?
No. A conditioner drawn from the guar bean stays on the strand as the lather rinses away, so hair comes out smooth, not squeaky or knotted.
Does it help with frizz in humid weather?
Yes. Upcycled apple seed oil seals the strand so damp air finds nothing to lift, and biodynamic Damask rose draws the surface flat for shine.
Is it good for long or thick hair?
Yes. The lather builds creamy enough to reach the ends, so you are not scrubbing long or thick lengths to get them clean.
What is a hair bath?
Hair bath is what Oway calls its shampoos. Each one cleanses and carries botanical actives chosen for a specific scalp or hair need, so every wash also works as a treatment.
Is it vegan and cruelty-free?

Yes. It is vegan and cruelty-free, and free from silicones, parabens, PEGs, phthalates and synthetic fragrance.

Which size should I choose?

8.1 fl oz (240 mL): $56.00. 1.7 fl oz (50 mL): $28.00.

Which routine is right for me?

smoothing shampoo & conditioner duo: for frizz-prone hair that tangles. anti-frizz complete routine: for hair that turns rough and frizzy as it dries.

What does it smell like?

Olfactory bouquet: sweet orange, vanilla, tangerine. Rich, sensual notes, for a nourishing line that restores immediate elasticity and provides hair with long lasting hydration.

About Oway

What is Agricosmetica®?

Agricosmetica® is how Oway makes cosmetics: actives from biodynamic and certified organic farming, selected with care and processed in a circular system that turns waste into resources, from the field to the bottle.

What is Ortofficina?

Ortofficina is Oway’s farm in the hills of Bologna, farmed with biodynamic methods since the early 2000s. Many of the botanical actives in Oway formulas are grown there and harvested when each plant is at its peak.

What does biodynamic mean?

Biodynamic farming treats the farm as one living system. It builds soil fertility with compost and crop rotation, uses no synthetic fertilizers or pesticides, and times sowing and harvest to natural cycles. Oway grows its biodynamic actives at Ortofficina and with a network of biodynamic growers.

Why glass and aluminium?

Glass keeps out light, air and moisture, so a formula keeps its purity, potency and freshness, and nothing leaches into it. Oway replaced plastic with recyclable glass and aluminium for its bottles, jars and tubes, to cut single-use plastic.

Where is Oway made?

In Italy. Oway was founded in Bologna in 1948 and still develops its formulas there, close to its farm, Ortofficina.
