Selkiehaircare Reviews 

I'm trying to remove chemicals / micro-plastics from all products (makeup, cleaning etc) - this is my first time trying a sustainable shampoo / conditioner and I'm obsessed! It feels a bit different at first since it doesn’t lather like regular shampoos - but it's crazy to think that effect is only because of all the chemicals.

So glad I've finally found a natural ingredient, toxic-free shampoo that makes my hair feel great too. Just if you have fine hair like me, make sure to give it an extra rinse.

Love what Selkie is doing and can't wait to see what sustainable haircare products are brought out next

I wanted to love this, however each time I used the shampoo & conditioner the condition of my hair became progressively worse, really dry, no shine at all & increasingly itchy scalp , so thank but no thanks as it is a great idea but the quality of the products will depend on the water!

I have been so impressed with Selkie that I have now subscribed so that I can receive my Shampoo & Conditioner every 6 weeks. Not only is this convenient, but I know I am helping the planet in a small way by reducing my use of single use plastic. Best of all my hair is looking AMAZING!! Love it.

I really wanted to love this product because the concept aligns so well with my values. I was excited to try it as soon as it arrived, and the mixing process was simple and straightforward, which I liked.

Unfortunately, it didn’t meet my expectations. I have long, straight hair, and it took four washes before my hair finally felt somewhat close to clean. Even then, my hair felt heavy, sticky, and not truly clean. The shampoo doesn’t foam much, so I needed to use a lot of product to cover all my hair. It was also quite difficult to rinse out and required a lot of water - which, ironically, felt wasteful. The conditioner was even more disappointing. It didn’t provide any moisture, and brushing my hair afterward was such a struggle.

I truly wanted this to work for me because I love the idea behind it, but sadly, the results just weren’t there.

I really struggle to find something that looks after my dry, curly, menopause hair but Selkie nails it. Selkie has the best price and best products I’ve used (among many including Wow, Coco & Eve, Olaplex, Canti, Boucleme, Flora & Coil etc) and it’s sustainably green. Love it! I love that it’s water-free and low packaging. It’s understated and the bottles are distinctly average but don’t be put off - the pumps work work well to deliver their amazing products!
My hair feels and looks softer and frizz is now controlled.
I use the conditioner and shampoo and will use these exclusively.
Easy to use - no complex routines - for softer, well nourished hair. What’s not to love!? It’s truly good stuff and should be shouted about.
It might sound like I’ve been paid to say this because I’m gushing about it so much, but I promise, I’m not and I have no links. I just LOVE this stuff.

These hair products are lovely for my curly hair. It definitely helps my hair feel cleaner for longer and less frizzy.
I also had a problem with my subscription, I emailed and it was sorted right away. Would definitely recommend

Love it and so simply sustainable

My hair is super thick and continuously malting, I have over the years every time I was my hair been pulling handfuls out at a time. Also the amount of shampoo I had to use to even get my hair clean was costing a fortune and the plastic throw away was so excessive! I have been using selkie for approximately 4 weeks now and my hair is cleaner for longer and I have less hair loss, I am also having people comment on my hair when out and about aswell.
I love selkie!

Hi there! I’m a new Selkie Hair user. It’s been about two weeks now. Has anyone else noticed their hair being more knotty than normal and their scalp becoming very tender?
My hair is fuller than usual, which is great. I’m not experiencing any stickiness that others have mentioned but there’s some uncomfortableness with my usually normal skin and my hair doesn’t feel smooth, although it is thicker.
I like the ethos of the product.
Should I keep going with my perseverance?

Kinder shampoo and conditioner that really work. The Selkie products have helped my long parched frizzy hair become healthier, hydrated and easier to style. The shampoo leaves the hair with a feeling of being deep cleaned allowing the conditioner to moisturise giving defined curls back to my hair that had become frizzy with product build up. My hair is left feeling soft, looking healthy and smelling clean and fresh. Selkie has managed to deliver a natural product that has worked for me.

Selkie’s shampoo and conditioner is working wonders for my wavy/curly hair so far (it’s been a month). I’m particular about the products I use due to harmful synthetics and environmental impact. Selkie meets my criteria- the only thing I’d love more is a shampoo bar that has the quality that matches (or is superior to) their current shampoo.
I’ve had a great customer service experience and will continue to recommend Selkie to others 💜💛

I really tried hard with this product but it's just no good.

My hair is medium thick, shoulder length with full head highlights. It is in the best condition processed hair can be.

It takes me upwards of 20 pumps to work enough shampoo in to my whole scalp. It takes a lot of water to remove the product. After using the conditioner my hair is sticky and almost impossible to brush through. It looks lank and dull and is very difficult to style.

The company seems great and I love the idea of the product but I just can't get on with it. I've used it for about 3 weeks so I have persevered. I just can't seem to get it out of my hair....once I've raised my hair for ages I can still feel it. When my hair is dry it looks ok but you can feel the reside and after 1 day it's sticky and I gross.. like I have product build up on it. It just doesn't work. I'm very sad.

For many years I have been trying to find hair care products (shampoo, conditioner) that are natural, no harsh chemicals and environmental friendly too. So no plastic. Tried lots of shampoo bars but unfortunately non of them worked well on my hair. They just left my hair greasy and tangled.
Then I came across Selkie. What an amazing idea to make powder shampoo then we can mix it at home with water. Selkie works perfectly on my hair, it leaves my hair soft, shiny and smells absolutely beautiful. Even my boyfriend complimented how soft my hair is and the lovely smell. I can only recommend Selkie to anyone. And obviously NO single use plastic.
Ps: I have long blond (coloured) hair.
Absolutely love it, definitely 5 stars.

You need to firstly get your head around the less foaming when washing but when you realise the foam is a cosmetic, unnecessary part of the performance of conventional shampoos and after a few washes with Selkie you’ll get it. I find my hair stays cleaner for much longer and is brighter and the colour stays for so much longer. I get less tangling and my hair is in great condition now. I’m very happy with the switch and have no plans to go back to conventional shampoo and conditioners.

These products did not work for me unfortunately.

Although the did leave my hair feeling clean, I had to use a lot of product and my hair still smelt dirty, was tangled and dried frizzy.

Credit to Selkie customer service though. Thank you for responding to my initial review by providing a full refund minus p&p.

Selkie took 28.14 out of my bank account without permission. I do not have a subscription with Selkie and would never had taken out a subscription on a product that I wanted to trial (and do not want to re-purchase). Contacting them has proved to be incredibly difficult. I used the shampoo and condition once - it dried my hair out and so did not use it again.

Fantastic customer service & Products!

I wanted to try selkie because their refils seemed like the most sustainable option in the market. I am on my third refill with the company and it couldn't be easier to mix the powder with water in the reusable bottles.

I love the pump, it makes dispensing the product so much easier. The shampoo leaves my hair feeling incredibly clean and I enjoy that it is not strongly scented. The shampoo does not lather much on the first wash but I always double shampoo and the second wash it has much more lather.

The conditioner is great too for a light but silky feeling and my fine hair is much more manageable after using it.

I mainly chose the products at first due to the sustainability and I was pleasantly surprised at how great they make my hair feel

Once I'd got used to the product, I love it. It is fantastic for my curls. I do tend to use more conditioner as my curls are dry but again as I've got used to it, I don't use any more conditioner than shampoo. My hair is soft, clean and bouncy. I love it. It's a bonus that I'm also able to do my bit for the environment too. Also customer service has been brilliant and delivery is quick and reliable.
