Find a wash that feels gentle on your scalp: The formula includes 2 alanine-based cleansers, ingredients that help lift away dirt. One customer said, "It does not lather well, but it feels gentle on my scalp." That experience speaks to wanting a wash that feels right for you.

Clean your hair while helping protect its moisture: Inside this 250 mL bottle, amino-acid-based cleansers help wash away dirt while protecting moisture, according to FANCL. A customer described hair that felt moisturized after washing, reflecting the softer feel you may want when stronger shampoos have felt drying.

Make your shampoo easier to reach and dispense: You receive 1 pump bottle holding 250 mL of liquid shampoo. The pump may make dispensing easier during your wash, giving you a simple way to access the shampoo when you want your bathroom routine to feel less fussy.

Choose your wash with its formula in mind: This silicone-free shampoo leaves out 2 sulfate cleansers: sodium laureth sulfate and sodium lauryl sulfate. If those are ingredients you prefer to avoid, these clear formula details can help you feel more in control of choosing your next shampoo.

Keep track of freshness after opening your bottle: FANCL gives this shampoo a 120-day freshness period after opening. That clear window helps you track when to finish your bottle, so caring for your shampoo can feel as straightforward as choosing a wash that suits your daily routine.

Product Story

Dryness after stronger-cleansing shampoos had led customers to look for a gentler-feeling wash. FANCL drew on its Mild Cleansing Oil formulation research to develop a silicone-free shampoo designed to remove dirt while protecting moisture. Made in Japan, the 250 mL shampoo brought amino-acid-based cleansing ingredients into that approach. Customer accounts described gentle scalp feel, even when the lather disappointed. Those experiences reflected a need that remained relevant today: finding a shampoo that felt comfortable and suited a personal routine.
