We place our faith in the world of plants. We do not use the word as a way to attract a customer. To grow a beautiful plant, you need to feed the soil. To grow beautiful hair, you need to feed the cells that create hair. For that you need plants. The last thing you want to do is slather your hair with a foamy, perfumed, chemical soup laden with dozens of incomprehensible chemicals.
We believe the source of our health comes from the earth (and the incredible bounty it provides), not from chemicals. We think your hair and scalp will agree.
