Does your mood depend on how good your hair looks and feels? Waking up with an amazing ‘good hair day’ gives us a different kind of energy and confidence. It makes us feel we’re all organized for getting one step closer to success! Such experiences can be a reality every day when you can proudly flaunt your strong tresses with the help of organic hair care.
Though our genes play a great role in deciding our hair type, its longevity and strength, but much of it also depend upon good hair care habits that helps control and delay the onset of hair issues.
Upgrading your existing haircare with pure organic products that are infused with scientifically proven natural ingredients strengthens hair strands, reduces breakage and restores vitality to your crowning glory.
Our organic hair care line uses these seven key botanicals to help strengthen your beautiful tresses:
1. Rosemary
Starved blood supply to the hair follicles causes them to die off, which leads to hair fall. Thus, a great deal of hair strength comes by improving blood circulation on the scalp. Rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis) contains active phytochemicals like Rosmarinic acid, Ursolic acid and Caffeic acid, which aids in circulation and allows fresh oxygenated blood to nourish the hair follicles. In fact, in a study it was seen that Rosemary can produce similar results compared to Minoxidil 2% (or Rogaine) that is FDA approved and popularly prescribed by dermatologists to promote hair growth, but without any side effects.

A balanced potion of Rosemary essential oil added to our organic shampoos, conditioners and leave-in conditioning styling gel works as a miracle for your locks. Beyond strengthening hair, Rosemary essential oil also prevents premature graying of hair, dandruff and treat dry or itchy scalp.
2. Burdock
Burdock root contains all the essential amino acids for building protein that forms the basic structure of hair. High levels of Vitamin A, Phytosterols, Polyphenols and Antioxidants nourish the scalp and strengthen the strands. Burdock (Arctium lappa) also contains minerals like Magnesium, Manganese, Copper, Calcium, Iron and Folate that is great for restructuring keratin fibers and thus, combatting thinning hair.
