The Umberto Giannini Dreamy Waves range was created with one goal: to show wavy hair at its best. These are the features you'll notice every day:

• Waves stay visibly defined after washing
• Frizz is reduced, even on humid days
• Hair feels soft, not heavy or flat
• Cleanses thoroughly without drying out
• Vegan and cruelty-free
• Contains chia fruit extract plus rice and wheat proteins
• Suitable for wavy hair types 2A to 2C
• No traditional sulfates in the formula

1. Wet your hair thoroughly with lukewarm water.
2. Massage the shampoo well through your hair and scalp.
   
3. Rinse completely.
4. Repeat if you had a lot of styling product in your hair.

For best results, pair the shampoo with the Umberto Giannini Dreamy Waves Conditioner. The conditioner complements the same formula to give your waves extra softness and cohesion after washing.

Your waves become noticeably more defined and feel smoother. This is thanks to a blend of rice and wheat proteins that temporarily strengthen the hair fibre and add volume to your waves. Panthenol, known as pro-vitamin B5, makes your hair feel soft and easier to comb after washing.

If you’re looking for a sulphate-free shampoo for waves that actually cleans, this is it. The formula is gentle enough for regular use yet strong enough to remove styling residues effectively. A smart choice for wavy hair that upgrades your routine without fuss. Explore the full Umberto Giannini range if you want to discover more products from this line.

Fine to normal wavy hair will benefit most from this shampoo. The proteins provide structure without weighing your hair down, and the light conditioning agents give cohesion to your waves. Do you have very dry or heavily bleached hair? You’ll likely need a rich conditioner or mask alongside this shampoo, as the formula contains no heavy oils or butters.

What’s the difference between Dreamy Waves and Coco Beach if you’re unsure which one you need? Dreamy Waves is your everyday go-to for wave definition and less frizz. Umberto Giannini Coco Beach Waves Shampoo focuses more on repair after sun, sea, and chlorine, making it ideal for summer or post-holiday care. For a daily wavy routine, Dreamy Waves is the more logical choice. Want to explore more options? Also check Curly Hair for additional products.

Yes, this shampoo is specially designed for wavy hair types 2A to 2C. If you’re wondering whether Umberto Giannini Dreamy Waves is good for 2A 2B hair: the formula is light enough for fine waves yet strong enough to support slightly thicker waves as well. Finer wavy hair benefits the most from the proteins and the light definition the shampoo provides without weighing down.

Not with normal use. The shampoo contains glycerine and panthenol that lock moisture into your hair. If you have a sensitive or dry scalp, your hair might feel a little tight after washing, especially if you wash daily. In that case, combine it with a good conditioner and wash no more often than needed.

The scent is distinctive and warm, with a woody note reminiscent of sandalwood. Some people find it a bit stronger than expected for a hair product. If you’re sensitive to strong scents or prefer fragrance-free products, this might not be the best choice for you.
