Q: Why does rhassoul clay feel different to other clays?
A: Rhassoul is naturally mineral-rich and is often chosen for a softer, more conditioning feel compared to some more drying clays.

Q: Can I use it on hair colour-treated hair?
A: Many people do, but clay can affect feel and slip, so it is best to test first and follow with conditioner if needed.

Q: Can I mix it with rose water?
A: Yes, rose water is a popular option for making a simple, easy clay mask paste.
