Ingredients after the first 5 to 8 ingredients are in negligible amounts and can be ignored if you are not trying to avoid any ingredient in particular – Read the Ingredients List, Not the Product Claims. I love the ingredients list. It’s filled with mild cleansers and frizz controlling ingredients. I am a bit wary about the need for glycol distearate, as pearly looking products are usually high in pH.

CG Friendly: Yes
Performance:
+ Lathers and cleans well
+ Doesn’t dry out hair
– It is not the most moisturizing shampoo that I’ve used. That’s possibly due to the glycol distearate mentioned in the ingredient analysis.

Overall, I would say that Vilvah Goatmilk Shampoo is a decent sulphate free shampoo in India.
