Description

Ambunu powder, derived from the leaves of the Sodom apple plant (Solanum incanum), is a traditional natural product used primarily in hair care routines, particularly in regions of West Africa. The powder is produced by drying the leaves and grinding them into a fine powder. This powder is rich in saponins and alkaloids, which contribute to its unique cleansing and nourishing properties. It is widely known for its ability to cleanse the hair and scalp without harsh chemicals.

Ambunu powder is often used as a gentle, natural cleanser for the hair, serving as a traditional alternative to shampoo. In addition to its cleansing action, Ambunu is believed to help with moisturizing, softening, and nourishing the hair, making it a popular ingredient in natural hair care practices, especially for those with curly and coily hair types.

Ambunu powder is a natural surfactant due to its high content of saponins, which have natural foaming and cleansing properties. It helps remove dirt, oil, and impurities from the scalp and hair without stripping the hair of its natural oils. This makes it a gentle and non-drying alternative to commercial shampoos that often contain sulfates and other harsh chemicals.
