Sundhara Hair Oil
Champi, carried across the water.
A hand-crafted champi oil on a bhringraj-infused base of moringa, jojoba, squalane and Jamaican black castor. It conditions, softens, seals in moisture, adds shine, and makes hair easier to detangle.
Cosmetic use only · For external use · Not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any condition.

The champi ritual, in three steps.
Place the capped bottle in warm water for a few minutes, making sure the water stays below the neck. It should test warm on your wrist, never hot. Don't use a microwave.
Section it. In slow circles over the whole scalp, rub the oil over your hairline, crown, behind the ears, and down to the nape. Firm enough to move the skin, not just the hair. Massage for 5–10 minutes.
Smooth what's left down the lengths. Keep in for at least thirty minutes, then wash out.
Try this with a partner. Sit down and let them work behind you, unhurried — champi is meant to be given as much as taken.
Three more ways to use it
Pre-wash
Apply to hair shaft and ends only, twenty minutes before you shampoo.
Overnight
Apply to scalp and hair shaft; cover your hair to avoid pillow staining. Wash out in the morning.
Wash-day seal
After washing, apply a little oil on damp hair to leave in.
How much to use depends on your hair.
Soaking and sealing need very different amounts. Start with the amounts below, then adjust.
| Your hair | Soaking | Sealing |
|---|---|---|
| Fine, or not much of it | 3–5 droppers · 3–5 ml. Keep it off your roots or it will go flat. | 1–2 drops |
| Medium | 5–10 droppers · 5–10 ml. Apply root to tip. | 2–3 drops |
| Coarse, or a lot of it | 10–15 droppers · 10–15 ml, in 4–6 sections. | 3–4 drops |

Note: This is the representative formula for the current batch. The exact INCI for each batch is printed on the ritual card that ships with every bottle. Coconut-derived ingredients appear here as Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride (fractionated coconut oil) and Coco-Caprylate; if you're coconut-sensitive, please read Good to Know.
Before you start.
Patch test first
Place a drop behind your ear or on the inside of your elbow. Wait 24 hours.
Coconut-sensitive?
This oil includes Coco-caprylate and Fractionated Coconut Oil.
Dandruff-prone?
Only apply to hair shaft and edges. Make sure to rinse within an hour or two, and do not keep on overnight. A scalp that's already flaking doesn't want oil sitting on it.
External use only
Keep away from eyes. If it stings, rinse with cool water.
The scent will shift
Every batch is made by hand, so the scent can vary a little from one to the next and deepen over time. That's normal.
Pregnant, nursing, or on a prescribed scalp treatment?
Check with your doctor first. This oil contains rosemary extract.
A note on claims. Sundhara is a cosmetic hair and scalp oil. It conditions, softens, seals in moisture, adds shine and eases detangling. It is not a treatment and is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any condition, including hair loss.
