The wellness verdict

SLS/SLES-free — sage, rosemary and watercress natural extracts
A 350ml shampoo that cleans all hair types gently using natural botanical extracts including sage, rosemary and watercress. Rich lather free of SLS/SLES that rinses away completely without residue, leaving hair lustrous without the dryness and scalp irritation that conventional sulphate shampoos cause.
SLS-free means gentler cleaning — no colour stripping, no scalp drying, no build-up
SLS/SLES are the primary culprits behind colour-treated hair fading faster, scalp dryness and irritation, and the squeaky-tight feeling after shampooing that signals stripped natural oils. Removing them from the formula doesn’t mean less clean — it means cleaning without the collateral damage.

Why most Australians are over-stripping their hair and scalp with every wash
SLS is found in approximately 90% of commercial shampoos. It produces a satisfying thick lather and is inexpensive, but it cleans by aggressively emulsifying and removing everything from the hair shaft — not just the dirt and excess sebum it should be removing, but also the natural conditioning oils, the moisture barrier of the cuticle, and the protective surface of the scalp itself. The result after regular SLS shampoo use: dry, frizzy hair; an irritated, overproducing scalp (which produces more oil to compensate for stripping, creating a cycle of frequent washing); and colour-treated hair that fades faster than it should.
Modere Shampoo uses gentler surfactants that clean hair effectively while respecting the natural oil balance of the hair shaft and scalp. The natural botanical extracts — sage, rosemary and watercress — add targeted herbal benefits alongside the clean-label base formula. The result: hair that is clean but not stripped, scalp that is balanced rather than reactive.
Key ingredients (US official description)
| Ingredient | What it brings |
|---|---|
| Sage extract (Salvia officinalis) | Astringent and clarifying properties; traditionally used for scalp health and oil balance; contributes to the scalp-toning dimension of the formula |
| Rosemary extract (Rosmarinus officinalis) | Circulation-stimulating botanical for scalp health; rosemary has one of the strongest evidence bases of any botanical for scalp and hair growth support; provides the aromatic character of the formula |
| Watercress extract (Nasturtium officinale) | Rich in vitamins A, C, K and minerals including iron, calcium and zinc — nutrients directly relevant to hair shaft health; a traditional hair care botanical |
| Gentle SLS/SLES-free surfactants | Clean the hair and scalp without stripping natural oils or causing the scalp irritation and colour fade associated with sulphate surfactants; leave no residue after rinsing |
How SLS-free shampoo cleans differently
Gentle surfactants lift and remove dirt without over-stripping
The surfactants in Modere Shampoo work by the same mechanism as conventional surfactants — reducing surface tension to lift dirt and excess oil from the hair shaft — but without the aggressive, total-stripping action of SLS. The result is a hair shaft that is clean and balanced rather than stripped and dry.
Natural botanicals benefit scalp health during the wash
Sage, rosemary and watercress contribute their botanical benefits during the contact time of shampooing — toning, circulation support and micronutrient delivery to the scalp that most shampoo formulas don’t provide.
What to expect
Adjustment period (first 1–2 weeks)
Hair that has been regularly stripped with SLS may take 1–2 weeks to adjust to a gentler shampoo as the scalp’s oil production normalises from over-compensating for previous stripping. This is temporary.
After the adjustment period
Hair feels clean without the squeaky-stripped sensation; scalp oil production normalises; colour-treated hair retains colour better between appointments; hair shaft is less dry and frizzy.
Tips for Modere Shampoo
Emulsify well before applying to hair
Because the lather is different from an SLS shampoo (more natural, less foam), emulsify the shampoo between your hands before applying to wet hair for more even distribution.
Pair with the All Hair Types Conditioner and Repairing Hair Mask
Shampoo + Conditioner + weekly Repairing Hair Mask = the complete Modere All Hair Types hair care system. The three products are formulated as a range, with the mask addressing the deeper repair that the cleansing and conditioning steps prepare for.
Particularly good for colour-treated hair
SLS actively accelerates colour fade in chemically coloured hair. Switching to this SLS-free formula is one of the most effective single changes colour-treated hair wearers can make to extend the life of their colour between appointments.

FAQ — Modere Shampoo Australia
What is Modere Shampoo All Hair Types?
A 350ml SLS/SLES-free shampoo that cleans hair gently and effectively using natural botanical extracts including sage, rosemary and watercress. Produces a rich lather without the harsh surfactants found in conventional shampoos. Leaves hair looking lustrous without residue or build-up.
What makes sage, rosemary and watercress relevant to hair?
These three botanicals are among the most historically used herbs for hair health. Rosemary has documented circulation-stimulating properties that support scalp health; sage has astringent and clarifying properties that address scalp oiliness; watercress provides vitamins and minerals relevant to hair shaft health. All three have been used in herbal hair care traditions for centuries.
Why is SLS/SLES-free better?
Sodium lauryl sulphate (SLS) and sodium laureth sulphate (SLES) are the synthetic surfactants responsible for the harsh lathering in most conventional shampoos. They strip not only sebum and debris but also the natural oils that keep hair and scalp healthy, causing dryness, colour fade (for colour-treated hair) and scalp irritation. SLS/SLES-free formulas use gentler surfactants that clean effectively without this stripping effect.
Is it suitable for colour-treated hair?
SLS-free shampoos are gentler on colour-treated hair because they don’t strip the colour molecules that SLS aggressively removes. The natural botanical extracts and absence of harsh surfactants make this a good choice for colour-treated, dry or sensitised hair.
