Our Products

Yep!
+ Are your products safe on colored/chemically treated hair?
Whether your hair is bleached, dyed, permed, keratin treated, chemically straightened— you name it— our products are completely safe for use :)
+ I have extensions, can I still use your products?
Because our products are rich in essential oils, we advise against using our products if you have bonded/glued in extensions. Oil can weaken your glue bonds over time and we would hate for your extensions to loosen up prematurely!

Absolutely! New moms love our Scalp Detox in particular as it can help to minimize postpartum hair loss!

Absolutely— our bottles are made from PETG1 plastic, which is the highest grade of plastic available. All of our shipping supplies are made from recycled materials, and we use 90% less energy during our production process thanks to the Cold Processed Method.
Did we mention we’re also carbon positive?— For every tonne of carbon we produce during the production process, we offset the amount (+more!) by funding a solar wind farm in Mumbai.
+ Why are the bottles so hard?
This is because our bottles are made from PETG1 plastic, the highest grade of recyclable plastic. It is a bit harder and more fragile than your standard squeezable plastic, but so much better for the earth in the long run!
