Hydrating refreshing combo

I've had a love and hate relationship with my hair. I've tried the obvious and expensive solutions out there for people with dry scalp and hair. I'll say I've been so impressed with OChre in the first week of use. The shampoo and conditioner combo are refreshing and leave me feeling clean. And the cream before my go-to blowdry leaves my hair feeling silky smooth without the stickiness you might expect. Looking forward to seeing continued improvement with time and consistent use.

It's night and day

I used to shampoo like a dude: with body wash, whenever I got around to it. Ochre changed all of that. It's nice to be intentional about hair care, and not to take my hair for granted before it's too late. Feeling great is worth the investment.

Hair Concerns: Oily

Scalp Concerns: Dry scalp, Dandruff or seb derm

Adverse to Changes

My life has been a constant battle with dry scalp and dandruff issues. Eventually, I found a dandruff shampoo that worked wonders for me (Selsun Blue). I was very mindful of the chemicals/ingredients and discussions over the harm that the shampoo can cause. With that in mind, I only used the shampoo 2-3x per week (note: my hair is short military type cut).

I tested OCHRE to see its effectiveness against my dandruff issues and my dry scalp. I've been using the shampoo 5-6x per week and my hair and scalp feel healthier compared to using my old products. I don't need to shampoo 5-6x per week, but it's nice to have healthy and soft hair without worrying about putting excess chemicals on my head. I would recommend giving OCHRE a try if you haven't already.

Hair Concerns: Oily, Thin or thinning

Incredible Product

I’ve been using Ochre’s shampoo and conditioner for a few weeks now, and it’s made a huge difference. I’ve always dealt with dry hair and a dry scalp, which sometimes led to dandruff. My hair felt rough, my scalp was itchy, and I was constantly trying different products without much luck.

Since switching to Ochre, everything feels healthier. My hair is softer and smoother, and my scalp isn’t flaky or irritated anymore. The dandruff has pretty much disappeared, and it just feels good not having to worry about it every day.

What I like is that Ochre actually focuses on fixing dryness and damage—not just covering it up. If you’ve got dry hair, scalp issues, or flakes like I did, this stuff is absolutely worth trying.
