Ambunu leaves are a traditional African herbal remedy commonly used for natural hair cleansing and detangling. Known for their naturally slippery texture, ambunu for hair works as both a gentle cleanser and conditioning treatment.

Used for generations in Chad and other Sahel regions, ambunu leaves contain natural saponins that help cleanse the scalp while maintaining moisture balance. Many users appreciate ambunu benefits for hair, especially its ability to soften strands and improve manageability.

Unlike harsh shampoos, ambunu herb creates a slippery gel when mixed with water, making detangling easier for textured and natural hair types.

How to Use Ambunu for Hair:

Mix one cup of ambunu leaves with one cup of water. Let the mixture sit for approximately 10 minutes until it becomes gel-like. Apply to the hair, massage gently, detangle, and rinse thoroughly. It can also be left on briefly as a conditioning treatment.

Ambunu 150g is ideal for personal use and regular herbal hair care routines.

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE Ambunu! The slip is amazing I haven’t seen ANYTHING like this product. I had some faux locs in for 2 months and my hair locked. I wore my hair for a week or so trying to figure out what to do. I was very upset because I was growing my hair and didn’t want to cut it. I remembered that I had some ambunu and it released my hair with very little hair loss. This is my second order. I love it and I am a believer!

I've been looking for other methods of cleansing my hair besides regular shampoo. Winter is on it's way, I'd like my hair hydrated and clean.

This Amunu I use it as both my shampoo and my conditioner. It detangles my hair very well as well as it leaves my thick 4c hair very soft and curly when dry and soft and wavy when wet. I love it and it will be my go to shampoo and conditioner for the foreseeable future.

Love the ambunu. It helps to relax my coils for detangling. I also like that it’s versatile and moisturizing and can be left in the hair. It reduces the shrinkage slightly.

Earthy herb smell, love the gooey consistency as well. I use this on my my hair as a pre poo with aloe Vera gel and I also use it on my baby girl’s hair for a shampoo/detangler and it is now a staple in my stash. So glad I tried it and I am now a permanent customer. Definitely recommend

After going natural and having to experiment a LOT... I have been using ambunu as a leave-in and an anti-inflammatory for 2 years now, and for these 2 years, my dandruff has disappeared. I don't have to buy it often and I am in love with the growth it's helping me get. Thank you!!

Came for the chebe, staying for the ambunu. Just simply amazing.

Customer photo review of Ambunu 150g

This stuff is so much fun, and so versatile! It's like everyone says - the slippage is real, and the cleaning abilities are phenomenal. I may legitimately never go back to lathering shampoos between this and clay washes. In addition, being able to apply this directly to your dry, dirty hair saves so much water. Just an overall amazing item.

I used Ambunu as a detangler, shampoo, and leave-in. My hair is soft and shiny. Wash day is easier and breakage has stopped. No more dry crunchy ends!

Customer photo review of Ambunu 150g

The Moisture and detangling properties of Ambunu leaves is second to none!! NOTHING can compare to it when it comes to the slip! Ambunu instantly detangles the hair and leaves it super soft and shiney. I have not found any conditioner, tea rinse, slippery Elm combo, flax seed combo, okra combo, or any thing to detangle my hair as quick as the Ambunu leaves! I have been using it as a shampoo and leave in. The only down side of using the Ambunu leaves is not being able to keep my hands out of my hair. A little goes a long way! I came online to order more bags of it, but they are sold out. I will be watching for it like a hawk!! Hhhhh Please buy a bag, you won't be disappointed, even if you have 5z hair!!

I loved the slip it gave me. My hair felt so soft after, it had never felt like this. The only issue was removing the dried leaves. I had to use a brush when I only prefer finger combing. It's a trade off, I'll keep using it. The shipping was very fast. The package was very well made. Thank you for bringing this tradition to us.

Customer photo review of Ambunu 150g

In my previous review, I stated that I like the way that Ambunu cleanses my hair. My curls were popping! My hair felt and looked clean and healthy. The Ambunu made my hair retain the natural moisture in my hair by not strip my hair at all. The slip loosens up all of the tangled hair as I applied it like Miss Sahel’s video for Ambunu. I just need to learn how not to get leaves stuck in my hair...lol, and how to create the right consistency as in the video. Overall, I think that I will soon love using this amazing product as a prepoo/shampoo for every wash day. Thanks, Miss Sahel!

Love this product. It makes it easy to detangle my thick hair. My husband was experiencing an itching scalp prior to using this product and now he never has problems. I will be purchasing again.

Ambunu 150g

This is my first purchase from Sahel but my second purchase of ambunu leaves. I must say your product is superior. The suggested ratio of water to leaves yields the perfect consistency for application. I’m so glad I found this product to add to my haircare routine.

Ambunu 150g

Very slippery. Love it!

Still trying it out. Right now its too early to tell if its doing a great job.

Ambunu is the best natural shampoo I've ever tried. Game changer for hair

Ambunu 150g

Ambunu powder is a very promising natural hair care option, especially if you’re looking to reduce chemical use and want something gentle but effective. It shines as a detangler and light cleanser, with conditioning benefits if combined properly in the routine. For people with fragile or curly/kinky hair, it can help with breakage, especially if the “slip” is good and residue is well-removed. But you’ll want to finish with a good moisturizer and possibly use it in combination with other conditioning treatments.

Ambunu 150g

I'm still learning how to use this one. My sister recommended I use it. It's supposed to have more slip when detangling, but it just feels like this other detangling conditioner I've used. I do like how it makes my hair feel when damp or wet.

Ambunu 150g

What a beautiful product. It’s an excellent scalp and hair cleanser that supports gentle detangling and leaves my hair soft every single time. Since incorporating Ambunu into my weekly hair washing routine, I’ve noticed I experience less breakage and am able to complete my wash days in half the time. The best part? It’s natural! Love love love this stuff!
