Why we rate it
One of the original Paul Mitchell shampoos, built around awapuhi, the Hawaiian white ginger extract the brand is known for. It cleanses any hair type and lifts dulling build-up while balancing moisture, boosting shine and helping to keep static down. It's colour-safe and suits fine to medium and colour-treated hair especially well. It even doubles as a body wash. The scent is a fresh cucumber melon with soft florals. Follow with Awapuhi Conditioner.

Stylist’s tip
Focus the shampoo on your scalp, where oil and product build up, and let the lather clean the lengths as you rinse. If you’ve used a lot of styling product, two smaller washes usually clean better than one big one.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between the original Awapuhi Shampoo and the Awapuhi Wild Ginger line?
This is the original Awapuhi Shampoo from Paul Mitchell's classic line: an everyday shampoo that balances moisture and adds shine. Awapuhi Wild Ginger is a separate collection with more targeted formulas, such as the HydraSoft moisture range and the repair range. If you want the classic everyday shampoo, this is the one.
Is Awapuhi Shampoo good for fine hair?
Yes. It suits all hair types and especially fine to medium hair, as it lifts dulling build-up, balances moisture and helps control static without weighing hair down. Paul Mitchell lists it as colour-safe.
Is Awapuhi Shampoo good for dry or frizzy hair?
It balances moisture and adds shine, and it suits most hair types, especially fine to medium and colour-treated hair. For very dry, coarse or frizzy hair, we'd look at the Awapuhi Wild Ginger HydraSoft range or Tea Tree Lavender Mint instead.
Can Paul Mitchell Awapuhi Shampoo be used as a body wash?
Yes. Paul Mitchell describes it as doubling as a body wash, with the same cucumber melon scent.
Which size of Awapuhi Shampoo is best value?
The 1 litre works out lowest, at £3.80 per 100 ml, compared with £4.59 per 100 ml for the 500 ml, £5.65 per 100 ml for the 300 ml and £11.93 per 100 ml for the 75 ml. The Paul Mitchell Litre Bottle Pump fits the litre bottle.
