Hair That Looks Healthy, Not Just Clean

Users say their hair finally has that 'I just left the salon' bounce and shine every day, without the greasy feel or heavy product buildup.

Frizz Control That Actually Lasts

Tames flyaways and frizz caused by humidity or dryness, so your style stays smooth from morning until night. Reviewers note 'even my baby hairs lie flat.'

Weightless Moisture You Can Feel

Delivers deep hydration that doesn't weigh fine hair down. Hair feels 'soft like silk' and more manageable, not limp or oily.

A Scalp That Feels Refreshed, Not Stripped

The gentle, sulfate-free formula cleanses thoroughly but leaves your scalp feeling balanced and comfortable, never tight or itchy.

Simplifies Your Daily Routine

Lathers quickly and rinses out completely in one go, saving time and water. No need for a second wash to feel clean.

Builds Hair Resilience Over Time

With consistent use, hair becomes stronger and more resistant to breakage from brushing and styling, leading to less hair in the drain.

A Truly Clean, Natural Scent

Leaves a faint, fresh scent of yuzu and blossoms that doesn't clash with perfumes or linger heavily. Users love the 'no fake perfume smell.'

Confidence in Your Hair's True Potential

Takes the guesswork out of haircare. This isn't about fixing 'bad' hair; it's about revealing the healthy, shiny hair that modern life has been hiding.

1. Wet hair thoroughly with warm water. 2. Dispense a coin-sized amount (about the size of a 10-yen coin) into your palm. 3. Lather between palms, then massage gently into scalp and through to the ends of your hair for 60 seconds. 4. Rinse completely with lukewarm water. For best results, follow with the matching Ichikami conditioner. Timeline Expectations: Week 1: Hair feels 'squeaky clean' without that tight, stripped feeling. You'll notice less frizz right after drying. Week 2-3: Hair starts to feel softer and more manageable. The 'weightless' moisture becomes more apparent, reducing daily flyaways. Week 4+: Consistent use builds a healthy foundation. Hair develops a consistent, natural-looking shine that doesn't look greasy, even on the second day.

Ichikami was born from a simple frustration: why do so many shampoos promise shine but leave hair heavy or dry? In Japan, where hair care is a daily ritual of respect, this wasn't good enough. Our formulators in Osaka spent 3 years testing over 200 rice-derived formulas, seeking the perfect balance of lightweight moisture and authentic shine. The result is this patented rice bran oil and silk protein complex, developed in a GMP-certified Japanese facility and tested in 8 separate clinical trials on Asian hair types. It's not just a shampoo; it's the culmination of a Japanese philosophy that everyday care should feel luxurious and deliver real results. This commitment has made it a top-ranked shampoo in Japan's premium haircare category for 5 consecutive years, trusted by users who value simplicity and efficacy.

Ichikami The Premium Shiny Moist Shampoo - 480ml Japanese Rice Care by Ichikami features a thoughtfully curated blend of ingredients designed to deliver optimal hair care benefits. The formula centers around Japanese rice water, which is rich in inositol to strengthen hair fibers and improve elasticity, while rice bran oil provides deep moisturization and a silky finish. Key cleansing agents include sodium laureth sulfate and cocamidopropyl betaine, which work synergistically to create a gentle yet effective lather that removes impurities without stripping natural oils. For hydration, glycerin and panthenol (pro-vitamin B5) are incorporated to attract and retain moisture, enhancing hair softness and manageability. Botanical extracts such as camellia sinensis leaf extract (green tea) offer antioxidant protection, and hydrolyzed silk adds shine and smoothness by forming a protective film on the hair shaft. Preservatives like phenoxyethanol ensure product stability, while fragrance provides a pleasant sensory experience. Collectively, these ingredients aim to nourish, volumize, and impart a luminous shine, making hair more resilient and easier to style.
