Most Expensive Shampoos

World's Most Expensive Shampoo

We’ve already told you about the world’s most expensive soap, but that isn’t going to do anything for your hair. After all, why pay top dollar for soap and leave your hair at the mercy of an inferior product? Enter Alterna Ten, the world’s most expensive luxury shampoo.

Alterna Ten contains exotic ingredients including African cacao extract, caviar age-control complex, photozyme complex with “color hold,” white truffle oil, Champagne grape seed oil, Bulgarian Evening Primrose and Arabian Frankincense. The shampoo is inspired by enzyme therapy, a process that uses enzyme supplements to treat conditions from digestive problems to cancer.

This expensive shampoo retails for around $60 for an 8.5 oz bottle. Even with such a high price, however, it may not be the most expensive shampoo in the world.

The challenger for most expensive shampoo, Kevis, isn’t a luxury product, per se, but rather a treatment for pattern baldness due to excess testosterone. The press release for the shampoo proudly touts Kevis as an alternative to adolescent castration, which is “not a commercially successful program.”

Imagine that.

World's Most Expensive Shampoos - Kevis

Lest you think this is a product only for men, though, Kevis is quick to remind you that elevated levels of testosterone may occur in menopausal women, those on hormonal birth control or even women who are just plain stressed out.

So how does this miraculous shampoo keep your hair from falling out? Simple—it uses a complex molecule discovered in human umbilical cords and, well, other stuff you wouldn’t want to put in your hair. The molecule is bioengineered at a cost of $60,000 per kilo.

A “1-Month Hair Improvement Program” including 12 vials of Kevis 8, a Kevis Earth Elements Shampoo and a Kevis Earth Elements Conditioner will set you back $219.95.

    I do love this shampoo. It smells divine, and it makes your hair feel so extreamly smooth. I tell anyone who says it’s too expensive, that hair is super important and this will keep your hair more alive than anyother. Worth the price.

    I hate it when I’m presented with the dilemma of whether I should eat for a month or use a high quality shampoo.

    I love this shampoo, I had to beg my husband to do without his hydralazine (maoi bp med) for a month, but, it was worth it! He is married to one hot mama!

    @ Laureleye – I’m appalled that you would risk your husband’s health at the expense of your hair. As a critical care cardiac RN of 16 years I can tell you that he could have easily ended up in the ICU or ER especially since he was taking an MAOI BP med which SHOULD NEVER BE STOPPED ABRUPTLY. You’re so vain, you should be ashamed.
