About Funori

Seaweed is the general term for many species of marine algae. We make our Funori from three important Japanese seaweeds, and nothing else:

  • Fukuro-Funori, also known as jelly moss (Gloiopeltis furcata)
  • Ma-Kombu, the edible kombu (Saccharina japonica)
  • Mekabu, the nutrient-rich roots of Wakame seaweed (Undaria pinnatifida)

The above are notable for their content of calcium, magnesium, iron, vitamin K — and importantly iodine and Fucoidan.

Funori is an abundant source of iodine, the deficiency of which plays a significant role in thyroid gland irregularities, resulting in dry hair, thinness, poor hair growth, and hair loss.

Funori is also known to reduce hair loss and promote new growth in some individuals. The Fucoidan polysaccharide in Funori has demonstrated ability to alleviate dryness and promote healthy hair growth cycle.

See photo gallery for actual pictures.

How to Use

 Cleanse and Conditioner the Japanese Traditional Way

Add 1 teaspoon of Funori to 1 cup of hot water in a small container and mix well. A squeeze bottle will work great. Use your own or buy one here.

  1. Rinse hair with lukewarm water.
  2. Apply Funori. Massage gently onto scalp with fingertips.
  3. Cleanse hair with straight strokes. Don’t use circular motions which can tangle your hair.
  4. Rinse well.

See picture gallery for the above.

❤ Deep Treatment

Prepare mixture as in above, using a little less than half as much water. This will make the mixture a little more gel-like, so that it will not drip down your neckline.

  1. Wash hair as normal (without using the mixture).
  2. Towel dry.
  3. Apply mixture.
  4. Cover hair with cap for 15-20 minutes.
  5. Rinse well.

❤ Mix with Your Favorite Shampoo

If you like foam and lather, or if you have a favorite shampoo you like to use, you can add the benefits of Funori to your shampoo:

  1. Prepare mixture as in above.
  2. Add 2 to 3 teaspoon of shampoo and mix well.
  3. Wash and rinse hair as usual.

    Really great product

    Posted by Reina on 15th Jan 2024

    I use it as a deep treatment on 4a hair and my hair feels and looks great afterwards. I I've purchased several more packs. Their no squeeze bottle is a great accompanying storage solution. Much better than the small bowl I was using.

    Incredible - a revelation!

    Posted by Anne on 3rd Oct 2023

    I went from using the expensive 'designer' shampoos and conditioners with a list of incomprehensible ingredients I cannot understand and which seem deliberately misleading (eg 'fragrance'?!), as well as exy styling products to contain the frizz. Hair is naturally wavy but always squeaky clean after shampooing and then having to add conditioner. Now I realise how much we have been conned by the marketing gods. Three ingredients in this product, and not only was it interesting to mix up, I appreciate how far it goes. I bought the comb as well, and people comment on how much darker my hair appears (it's dark brown) but I think it's because it's so much shinier as the hair cuticle is smooth. I don't use any styling products or heat to dry my hair as I've found there's no need with this, and I've never been happier. A revelation to me is how I only lose about 10-20 strands of hair when I wash it daily/every other day. With other products I was losing clumps of hair. I read recently that shampoo as we know it was invented to strip the hair of all moisture so that we could be sold conditioner (2 products instead of 1). I'll never go back to mainstream hair and beauty. This product seems expensive but trust me it goes a long way and my scalp's itchiness is almost completely gone. To think at one point the bacteria on my scalp was so out of alignment, I had dermatitis and needed anti-fungal shampoos periodically to fix it. Thank you Wawaza - please never stop making this product. I'll be back for another larger boxwood comb - again, in the West we have been using inferior products till discovering your brand!

    Great Natural Hair Cleanser

    Posted by Anonymous customer on 30th Jul 2023

    This seaweed hair cleanser does indeed clean the hair and it also improves the quality of one's hair if used consistently for several months. If you have never used this, I would suggest buying several packets because there will most likely be a transition period at the beginning and you will have to continue using this for at least a few months, possibly every day, before your scalp adjusts. I like that this contains no chemicals, preservatives, or fragrances; it's literally just powdered seaweed. Definitely read and follow the instructions - it's best to add hot water to a bowl first and then slowly sprinkle in the seaweed powder while mixing to dissolve the powder. If instead you add the powder first and then pour in the water, the powder will clump and it's hard to break up the clumps.

    has a wonderful effect on the texture of my hair

    Posted by Annie Oakley on 8th May 2023

    I found WAWAZA during my research for treating an itchy scalp. Funori is resolving that issue and has a wonderful effect on the texture of my hair. I use it as a "scalp mask" leaving it on for 20 minutes and sometimes mix it with shampoo. I use shampoo less now. Along with other wonderful products, I order regularly.

    Excellent Product

    Posted by FK on 17th Apr 2023

    I have been using Funori for over 8 months, and it really helped with hair growth, along with Camilia oil. I had bald patches on my head and now I hair is much fuller. High quality products that delivers and excellent customer service. Thank you Wawaza!

    Great Hair Cleanser!

    Posted by I Collins on 23rd Mar 2023

    I love the way this hair cleanser/conditioner makes my hair feel. It's silky-smooth and has a natural gleam I remember when I was young and thought I'd never see it again. It's easy to use, convenient and effective. I'm not losing hair as much as I used to, and I can't stop marveling at the brand-new texture. I have a slightly straight/somewhat kinky/curly African-American hair type, and I don't ever see myself needing a relaxer again because this product does such a wonderful job of softening hair from roots to ends, plus it adds so much moisture! What impressed me, too, was how quickly I got my shipment from Japan ... with a couple of very nice sample products. I will definitely be ordering again, and I encourage anyone --- with any hair type --- to buy this (you won't regret it). You'll look forward to doing your hair and won't spend half the time trying to make it look healthy because Funori does that for you!

    the only product I use

    Posted by Signe on 16th Mar 2023

    I only use Funori when I clean my hair - in fact it is the only product I use at all. I use cool (rain) water. And I am very satisfied with the nice clean scalp and hair.

    Excellent

    Posted by Emmanuelle T. on 7th Jan 2023

    Leaves hair very healthy if you do not specifically mind seaweed smell. I have very thin hair and a few uses made them way shinier and healthier. recommend as a treatment.

    i love it!

    Posted by laura on 6th Dec 2022

    This product is a revelation! I'm always looking for the simplest, cleanest, and most beautiful solutions to hair and body care, and this hair cleanser rings all the bells. I'm amazed at how it so easily beats all the perfumy, blingy, expensive shampoos and conditioners I've tried in my search for a clean, fragrance-free product. My hair is more elastic and has had a great texture since its first use. I am hoping that it will also help restore my hair, as it did for the person in the photo. You don't need to use much at all, so mix only what you need for a couple of washings. I like that there is no lather. It's like bathing in a stream or the rain. Also, I ordered two brushes, and the package I received was so beautifully arranged and packed and included many lovely samples. Service was very swift, and the package arrived within two weeks of ordering. I feel altogether wonderful about all the things I ordered, and I will be returning to buy more goodies from wawaza!

    As promised, noticable difference after one wash. Hair keeps clean longer!
