Looking for vegan hair products? 

Many conventional hair products contain animal-sourced ingredients such as keratin or biotin.

However, with many effective plant-based & synthetic alternatives now available, it’s much easier to find vegan shampoos, conditioners & other vegan hair products that don’t contain animal-derived ingredients.

How To Know If Vegan Hair Products Are Truly ‘Vegan’

Depending on what you’re looking for, vegan hair products tend to mean the absence of animal, or animal derived, ingredients, while ‘cruelty-free’ indicates  a product that doesn’t test on animals. Ideally, you want both.

If you’re ever unsure whether a product is 100% vegan or cruelty free, hair care, or otherwise, it’s easy to check via Peta’s Cruelty Free Database or via Cruelty Free Kitty. Ethical Bunny will also tell you if a brand is cruelty free. 

From vegan shampoos & hair conditioners to vegan hair serums and hairsprays, here are 10 vegan hair products for cruelty free and lustrous locks.
