To fortify and protect, pro-vitamin B5, keratin amino acids, silk (hydrolyzed), and L-arginine help restore hair’s natural resilience, reducing breakage and improving texture over time. Rhodiola extract and allantoin provide additional soothing and conditioning properties, making this shampoo ideal for sensitive scalps. With a clean, unscented formula, Locks of Lovely Shampoo is perfect for those who prefer a fragrance-free hair care experience while still enjoying premium-quality ingredients. Experience the beauty of deeply cleansed, nourished, and naturally radiant hair with every wash!
Method of Application This should be used as any shampoo would be applied. Let sit on the hair for several minutes and rinse thoroughly with warm water. I know (duh, Markey). :-) Our testers here did not need to use a conditioner afterward. We want your feedback!
Shelf Life and Storage Information for Our Products and Ingredients
Finished Products - generally don't need to be refrigerated as they are preserved, but you can refrigerate them to extend their shelf life. The shelf life for most products is 9-12 months. Vitamin C Serum(s) and VitaResurface products should continually be refrigerated to extend their shelf life. Sample Sizes - do have a shorter shelf life (generally 3-6 months), and items in jars can dry up quicker than this if the lid is not tightened well enough (Vitamin C Serums - use within 90 days).
Please Keep Your Products Out of Humidity, Heat, Direct Light and in a Dark Cabinet When Possible
Exfoliating Acid - products have a shelf life of 9-12 months. The only things we don't suggest refrigerating are the Mandelic Acid Serums or Salicylic Acid Serums, as they can crystallize in the refrigerator. If this happens, you can set the product into a hot water bath to see if the crystals will dissolve.
Additional Items That Require Refrigeration and/or Kept in the Dark
Hydrosols and Distillates - remove 1 ounce of hydrosol and add it to a separate, sterilized spray bottle and spritzer. Keep the larger bottle in the refrigerator. Carrier and Exotic Oils - generally refrigerate all carrier oils, although some very rich oils will solidify. This is fine. All you have to do is take the oil out, warm it up at room temperature, and it should liquefy. If not, set the bottle in a hot water bath and occasionally shake the bottle, which will hopefully turn into a liquid. Some oils, like coconut cream and jojoba oil, have a super long shelf life.
Refrigeration of The Following Ingredients is Not Necessary, But it Won't hurt
Essential Oils - essential oils are best stored in a cool, dark place. Co2 Extracts - these should continually be refrigerated. Butters - we suggest refrigerating our "skincare" butters. You can remove what you need and keep the rest in the fridge. Clays - keep in a dry, dark place. Shelf life is at least 2 years. Herbs All herbs <i>(whole or ground)</i> should be kept in a dark, cool, and dry location. Herbal (liquid) Extracts are created using grain alcohol. The alcohol pulls the constituents (properties) from each herb, root, trunk, leaf, and flower. They have a shelf life of 3-5 years. They can be stored in the refrigerator or a dark, dry place. Other Raw Ingredients - such as Sodium PCA, Honeyquat, Oat Beta Glucan, etc., will all have different shelf lives.

Mounting stress levels can have a detrimental effect on the body, triggering a nutrient-conserving mode where the body prioritizes essential survival functions over others, such as hair health. Consequently, hair issues and hair loss become more pronounced. Rhodiola rosea, an adaptogenic herb, offers a solution with its anti-stress and fatigue-fighting properties that help lower stress-inducing enzymes in the body.
The benefits of Rhodiola rosea for hair are largely attributed to its adaptogenic qualities, which enhance the body's ability to manage stress, thereby indirectly supporting hair health. Here's how it works: **Improves Stress Resistance**: Rhodiola rosea is rich in antioxidants that neutralize free radicals and help balance hormones, reducing cortisol levels, the primary stress hormone. High cortisol levels can cause hair follicles to shrink, exacerbating hair issues. Regular intake of Rhodiola rosea supplements boosts the body's stress resistance, mitigating hair fall and other hair-related problems associated with poor follicle health.
**Maintains Hormonal Balance**: The endocrine system regulates hormone production, which is vital for the growth and reproduction of hair follicles. By aiding in hormonal balance, Rhodiola rosea directly contributes to healthier hair and reduces hair fall concerns.
**Enhanced Blood Circulation**: A well-functioning body ensures optimal performance of all systems, including blood circulation. Rhodiola rosea supplements promote normalization, facilitating free blood flow and delivering oxygen and nutrients throughout the body, including the hair follicles. This improved nutrient supply enhances hair follicle health, alleviating hair concerns. Black Castor Oil D-Panthenol Baobab Powder Extract Allantoin L-Arginine
Locks of Lovely Shampoo (Unscented): Pure, Nourishing, and Gentle Care for Your Hair
Love this shampoo! I have an oily scalp but dry hair, and somehow this formula balances both. My hair is much softer (less breakage), and it doesn't need washing as often. It's remarkable that this works without conditioner.

We’re blushing, or maybe that’s just our shampoo bubbling with pride! Thank you for the lovely shoutout to Locks of Lovely Shampoo.
Balancing an oily scalp and dry ends is no small feat, but this shampoo understood the assignment.
We’re thrilled to hear your hair is feeling softer, stronger, and sassier with less wash-day drama (and no conditioner sidekick!).
Who knew one bottle could do it all? We might start calling it the overachiever of the shower shelf.
Thanks again for sharing the love your hair clearly has great taste. ♀️

Luxurious shampoo
I love this shampoo. It makes my hair soft yet full. Like others have said, I don't usually use conditioner with this shampoo as it feels like a shampoo and conditioner all in one. I just lather up and leave it in for a few minutes. I also like that it is unscented.
Thank you so much for your lovely feedback! It’s wonderful to know our shampoo is leaving your hair soft and full, exactly what we hoped for when creating it!
We love that you’ve found it nourishing enough to skip the conditioner - this kind of simplicity can make all the difference in a busy routine. And we’re especially glad you appreciate the unscented formula. We know how important it is to have gentle, fragrance-free options that still feel indulgent.
Thanks again for sharing your experience

Great shampoo
I have very curly hair. I have also lost a lot of weight recently. My hair has been limp and thin feeling which is not my norm. This shampoo has helped my dry scalp and limp hair. My curls have more definition and my scalp doesn't feel dry and sore. My only wish is for a matching conditioner or deep conditioning treatment to go with it. I still have to use conditioner, but that didn't come as a shock to me.
Jen
Thank you for your review! We're so glad to hear that our shampoo has helped bring back definition to your curls and improved your scalp health. We appreciate your feedback about a matching conditioner or deep treatment, it's definitely something we’ll keep in mind for the future! In the meantime, we recommend pairing it with a hydrating conditioner to maintain moisture and keep your curls looking their best. Thanks again for sharing your experience! I love this shampoo as well Markey

Outstanding shampoo. My scalp and hair are very clean after using this. No irritation and no build-up. Far superior to many of the shampoos that I have recently used. I will definitely continue to purchase this product.

Great
This shampoo is great for my hair, but also for my scalp which is no surprise with the ingredients that GOW employs. I use several GOW products for my facial skin. Now I have as good a product for the rest of my head.
Thank you SO much!
We get really nice and positive feedback for this product and yours is greatly appreciated as well.
Enjoy and please let us know if you have any follow up questions, ideas or thoughts about this shampoo.
There's something about coconut vinegar that just hits right...
I LOVE to close my eyes and spray all of the Coco tonics on my face after washing it. It smells amazing and makes it so less is more as you move forward with serums and creams. It's like self-care in a spritzer.

The scent to rival all scent-sations!
It is the most DIVINE of all the serums I've tried at GoW, not only due to it's efficacy, but the scent takes you straight into a rose garden on a mild spring day. Lovely feeling on my skin and to my senses.

Thiis product is a game changer. I am addicted! I apply it morning and evening. I wake up every day to tighter skin. I cannot see my pores anymore. My jawl line seems smoother and tighter, along with my neck and chin. I wish I had a before and after! I give it a 10/10!
FirmAge 5% DMAE Gel - Sagging Skin Support Tightening and Firming
This is another favorite! Didn't think product was doing much until my husband mentioned that my face looked smoother and more even. He also has started using it now and has gotten many compliments. Doesn't burn or sting like ascorbic acid. I use 3-4 times a week at night only and love that it contains squalane because it gives me a little extra moisture.

Thank you for taking the time to leave such a lovely review for our C³ Lipid Elixir! We are delighted to hear that you and your husband have both noticed positive results from using our product. We pride ourselves on using gentle and effective ingredients, such as squalane, to provide skin conditioning and improve skin texture. Thank you for choosing our product and we hope it continues to exceed your expectations.
Have a wonderful day!
These pads are one of my favorites! I have used them for a few years. They don't flare up my rosacea (do a patch test first) or cause excessive dryness. I only use 1-2 times a week so the product lasts for many months. I like that it only has one ingredient and no preservatives. Great price and shipping is fast.
Hi Teresa
Thank you for taking the time to leave such a positive review for our Lactic Acid Exfo Pads! We're so glad to hear that they have become one of your favorites and that they don't irritate your rosacea or cause dryness. We always recommend doing a patch test before trying any new product. We're also happy to hear that the product lasts for a long time and that you appreciate the simplicity of one ingredient and no preservatives. Thank you for choosing our product and for the kind words about our price and shipping. We truly appreciate your support!

I have combo acne prone skin and have a hard time finding products that don't break me out but are moisturizing enough. GoW has been a game changer.

Upon doing the cottonball test this item did not clean my face properly for me . I only use jojoba oil and concealer in a few places. I do believe it has quality ingredients, I have mixed it w the Skin Friendly Cucumber cleanser as to make that cleanser more gentle for MY high maintenance skin.
Hi Julie
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review for our Soothing Cleansing Gel. We apologize that the product did not meet your expectations and we understand that finding the right cleanser for your skin can be a challenge.
We appreciate your feedback and would like to suggest trying our Skin Friendly Cucumber cleanser, which you have already mixed with our Soothing Cleansing Gel. It may be a better fit for your high maintenance skin. We also recommend using a gentle exfoliator occasionally to
help ensure a deep clean.
We strive to provide quality products and we hope to have the opportunity to better serve you in the future.
Again, thank you for your honesty as well,
Markey
Even before I moved to natural products, I had difficulty with deodorants. I sweat a good bit. I would rotate between a couple of deodorants as that seemed to help ensure they kept working. I do like the natural deodorant sticks with baking soda. I also like the way it feels as a barrier on my skin. However, before or by the end of the work day, they stopped doing their job. So, I decided to use the unscented version of this GOW along with the stick deodorant. Put this on first, let it dry and then apply the stick. This has made such a difference!!!! It really keeps odors in check! I’m sensitive to scents, but citrus is usually not a problem, so I’ll try that next time.n
Hi Valerie
It's wonderful to hear that our Deodorant Spray has been working well for you! It's great to know that you've found a solution to help with your sweating and that our product has made a difference for you. Thank you for sharing your experience with us and for your support.
We hope you continue to enjoy our product!
Our Best,
