Product Overview
When darker hair needs a quick refresh, our organic Fresh Locks™ Dry Shampoo brings back clean, touchable volume without leaving a pale or powdery cast. This gentle blend absorbs excess oil at the roots, lifts flat areas, and leaves hair looking naturally full with a bright, mint‑fresh aroma.
The base — organic tapioca flour, organic cornstarch, kaolin clay, organic burdock root, and organic plantain — works together to refresh the hair without heaviness. A touch of cocoa powder helps the formula blend smoothly into brown, black, or deep auburn hair so it disappears on the scalp and looks completely natural.
It’s the perfect pick‑me‑up after the gym, between wash days, when traveling or camping—anytime your hair needs a little boost.
The Power of a Plant‑Based Dry Shampoo
- Extends the time between washes.
- Refreshes Without Water: Lightweight plant powders absorb excess oil at the roots, leaving hair looking clean and feeling light, soft, and refreshed.
- Adds Natural Volume & Texture: Restores body and lift to oily, limp, or fine hair so it feels fuller and easier to style.
- Soft Herbal Scent: Lavender and rosemary essential oils create a clean, calming aroma and support a balanced scalp.
- Clean, Simple Ingredients: Made with organic, plant‑based powders — no talc, aluminum, synthetic fragrance, micas, or preservatives.
Scent
The essential oil blend — peppermint, spearmint, eucalyptus, rosemary, lime, and tea tree — creates a clean, cooling scent that feels instantly refreshing and supports a balanced, comfortable scalp.
Thoughtful Packaging
Our dry shampoos are packaged in recyclable paperboard tubes made from FSC-certified paper, with a shaker top for easy application—no aerosols, no propellants.
Fresh roots. Soft volume. Cool minty freshness.

How To Use
How to Use a Dry Shampoo Powder
- Apply to dry hair, focusing on the roots where oil tends to build up.
- Part hair into small sections and apply a small amount of powder using a brush, fingertips, or by lightly sprinkling from the tube.
- Gently massage into the scalp and allow the powder to sit for a minute or two to absorb excess oil. Then brush or tousle hair to distribute evenly and remove any excess.
- Use sparingly—you can always add more if needed.
Tips
- Apply a little at a time for best results
- Focus on the oiliest areas, not the entire head
- For a deeper refresh, apply before bedtime and let it work overnight
- Apply near your part, not directly on it, to avoid visible powder

Frequently Asked Questions
Are Chagrin Valley Ingredients & Products USDA Certified Organic?
Chagrin Valley Soap & Salve is a USDA Certified Organic Company
The most important consideration in any business is its customers. Today's world of misleading claims, false advertising, and simple deception, often leaves consumers trying to discover the truth about personal products and their ingredients.
- We want our customers to know that we are committed to transparency in everything we do.
- We want our customers to know that when we say "organic," we mean it.
- We believe that in becoming a USDA Certified Organic company, our customers do not have to wonder if we really use certified organic ingredients or if our organic products are truly organic.
- So we choose to be a certified organic company and abide by the strict standards required for organic certification.
Some of my favorite products are made with ingredients that just do not exist as certified organic. Why? At this time there are no standards created for ingredients specifically used in the personal care product industry. Organic certification of personal care products is based on the organic food standards set by the National Organic Program of the USDA.
But since we are a certified organic company, we are required to submit documentation that even our "non-organic ingredients" were produced without the use of toxic pesticides, genetically modified organisms (GMOs), sewage sludge, or irradiation.

What are essential oils?
What Are Pure Essential Oils?
Have you ever enjoyed the scent of a fragrant flower or herb? The fragrance comes from potent, aromatic compounds called essential oils found in the flowers, stems, seeds, bark, roots, fruits, and other parts of plants. It often requires several pounds of a plant to produce a single bottle of essential oil.
Essential oils not only give plants their unique scents but also help lure plant pollinators and protect plants from insects and other predators.
The chemical composition of essential oils may provide valuable psychological and physical aromatherapeutic benefits for some people.
It is important to note that to be a true essential oil, the oil must be isolated from the plant material by physical means only. Essential oils are NEVER extracted using solvents.
Although synthetic fragrances or "nature identical" oils are available at a much lower cost, only natural plant essential oils will provide any aromatherapeutic benefits.

How Essential Oils Are Extracted
Why We Use Only Real Plant Essential Oils?
If you are pregnant or under a doctor's care for any medical condition, please consult your healthcare provider before using essential oils.
Pregnancy & Children: We do not provide information on the safety of essential oils during Pregnancy or for use in Children because the available information is very ambiguous and often contradictory. If you’re interested in using essential oils during pregnancy or with young children please do your own research and consult your doctor, midwife, or health care professional before use.

What Do The Different Organic Symbols Mean?
We use two different organic symbols on our website
Each symbol has a unique definition!
The "certified organic" labeling has been developed by the USDA and refers to organic claims and labeling on food and personal care products in the United States.
The USDA has very strict guidelines for the percentage of organic ingredients necessary to receive organic certification. Other countries have their own certification procedures, requirements, and standards. Labeling criteria and allowable ingredients differ from those in the US.
The USDA uses a structured labeling system based on the percentage of organic ingredients in a product (excluding water and salt-NaCl).
Products That Use the USDA Organic Seal
The USDA Organic Logo Label can be used on products that meet the standards of the first two tiers of the organic labeling system, in which 95 - 100% of all ingredients are certified organic.
Most of our non-soap products fall into this category and display the USDA logo!
Products That Use OEFFA Seal
Products made with 70–94.9% Organic Ingredients are labeled “Made with Organic ___”
Products like our soaps and shampoo bars are 85–92% organic and fall into the “Made With Organic Ingredients” category.
Why Soap & Shampoo Bars? Because the soapmaking process requires lye — a non‑agricultural ingredient that makes up more than 5% of the formula — they cannot meet the 95% threshold, even though the rest of the ingredients are organic.
These products are not allowed to use the USDA organic seal. Instead, they may display the seal of our certifying agent and the words “Certified Organic by OEFFA.”
Chagrin Valley Soap is certified by OEFFA (Ohio Ecological Food and Farm Association) — a nonprofit, USDA‑approved agency that verifies our organic ingredients and manufacturing processes.
