Our Take
Part of Mielle's Mango & Tulsi Nourishing range, this 2022 Ebony Beauty & Grooming Award winner cleanses with mango — rich in vitamins A and C — alongside tulsi (holy basil), which has a long history in Ayurvedic hair care for scalp health and shine. Sulphate-free and protein-free, it removes impurities gently without stripping the scalp's natural oils, leaving hair measurably softer and smoother after each wash rather than requiring weeks of use to notice a difference. Suitable for all curl types and porosity levels as an everyday cleanser, and works well with the matching Nourishing Conditioner for a complete scalp-health-focused wash routine.
