95% natural styling products with different benefits and practical textures.
You asked us, and we took the time to formulate them: natural styling products, with practical and pleasant textures – easy to use and rinse, without damaging your hair. Here’s how we did it.
Wax pomade
As the name suggests, this is made from wax. Wax pomade have a film-forming effect which protects the hair from dehydration, serves as a texturising agent to thicken, and helps to form a stable formula.
Beeswax structures the hair fiber and keratin of the scalp. It is mixed with carnauba wax (from a Latin American palm tree) with texturising powders and Candelilla wax (from a Mexican shrub) – an adhesion agent that increases the product’s hold. Emulsified with water, these fatty substances make it possible to obtain the texture of paste. This is the main characteristic of wax pomade, and coats the hair well.
So you don’t have to heat it in your hands for too long, we have chosen fats that allow an easy spread and melting point. All you have to do is distribute it through your fingers to make it work in the hair. Thanks to the white clay contained in the product, this will supply a matte appearance.
To look after your hair even better, it includes sapote butter (fruit from Central American and the Caribbean) which has nourishing properties that soothes even the most sensitive scalps. Vegetable glycerin also hydrates the hair. The result? A strong hold, a mat effect, and respectable styling.
Cream pomade
An emulsion of water, vegetable glycerin and shea butter forms the basis of the cream pomade. Beeswax and rice wax provide a moderate fixation to the product.
Beeswax is obtained with the greatest care to the bees themselves. The beekeeper waits until the end of the honey harvesting season and spares the combs containing younger bees. It therefore does not destroy the nest, but recycles used combs, from which the honey is separated from the wax.
Shea butter comes from the nut of this African fruit. It nourishes, softens, and restores hair its natural shine. Castor oil strengthens your hair and also gives it shine. Sapote butter soothes the most sensitive scalps.
Together, these nourishing, moisturising ingredients are easily absorbed into the hair, making the cream pomade suitable for all hair types. It is also ideal for dry hair and / or sensitive scalps.
Texturising styling spray
The texturising hair styling spray is essentially composed of water for a light aqueous solution, and salt for a texturising “just got back from the beach” look. Rather than a wet finish, it leaves a light re-densified head of hair, and is suitable for fine hair in need of volume. This effect can also be combined with other styling products to achieve an even more varied result.
So that it does not dry out your hair, like after a long day at the beach, the spray contains several ingredients intended to preserve hair health. Vegetable glycerin helps with hydration. The acacia fruit extract strengthens the follicles and makes them smooth and silky. Provitamin B5, also called panthenol helps to fight split ends and creates a protective film around the hair fiber. Panicled Gypsophila root extract, which is a bushy flower, helps maintain healthy hair. So you only get the good sides of the ‘beach hair’ look.
Finally, the wax pomade, cream pomade, and texturising spray do not contain parabens or silicones and are composed of 95% natural ingredients. They are therefore suitable for all types of hair, protecting and preserving as it steadily repairs. We’ve got you covered. You just have to choose.
