Our Nature Loving Ingredients

Our curl care recipes are made for those who expect the best and want the most results from their curl care while wanting it to be natural. To us, natural is only the beginning.

Our recipes are inspired by the power of botanicals that are sourced from around the earth – from Africa, to the Caribbean and the Tropics. We combine cold-pressed and nutrient-dense ingredients to create potent curl food, so that every drop feeds your curls, and less means more.

Conventional brands use natural ingredients at low levels, alongside fillers to make products feel thicker and to make the hair feel more coated. This often results in excess build-up. We formulate our products with a high proportion of botanically-derived, cold-pressed and raw ingredients so that less means more, and a little goes a long way — the compliment we receive often from our customers! Botanicals are extracts, waters, powders, oils and butters derived directly from flowers, herbs, nuts, seeds, roots, leaves, barks and berries.
