Yesterday was the best day I've had in a long time.  I was struggling with how I wanted to create a hair care line but to make it into something meaningful & inspiring.  I didn't just want to be another hair care product.  I really wanted to make a difference.  Inspired by the people I've met and my own hair journey, I've decided to call the new hair care line "Hair Love".
A product called Hair Love is already on this site (click here to view). Hair Love was designed with the concept that if you love your hair, you'll want to put the purest ingredients on it.  Yesterday, I realized that this concept is more than just hair care.  In my own personal hair journey, I've done all kinds of things to my hair that more had to do with how I felt about myself and what others thought and/or perceived me to be.  My hair was a part of my persona that was acceptable to everyone else but myself.  
As a result, I've stopped chemically altering my hair.  In fact, I've stopped using any sort of chemical on my hair.  It's not just about the products.  It's about a shift in your mindset to accept that your hair is your crown.  You are worthy and deserving of a beautiful head of hair thus a beautiful sense of self.  I've learned this throughout my hair journey.  Now is the time for me to share what I've learned with all of you!
It doesn't matter what kind of hair you have or how much pigment is in your skin.  The concept of Hair Love transcends what separates us.  Hair Love is for every head of hair on every body.  
In the coming weeks, Hair Love will be launched.  There'll be a new website showcasing Hair Love products and most importantly, to start the discussion by asking the question "How do you feel about your hair?" You'll be surprised at the results!

Next year we will be launching a brand new curly hair care line!  It'll be unlike any curly hair care line Canada has ever seen.  For starters, it'll be designed for the Canadian climate.  It'll be fully made in Canada with Canadian-sourced ingredients. There'll be products for men.  Best of all, it'll be gluten-free, dairy-free and egg-free!  Hooray!

Tell us what you would like to see in our curly hair care line.  We're going to be blogging about the experience so stay tuned.  In the meantime, keep checking back for more curly hair care content on our site.



 
 
The cosmetic industry has been “going green” for some time now.  We’re surrounded by words like “organic”, “natural” and “eco-friendly” on all of our favourite products.  If it has a natural ingredient it must be completely natural, right?  Wrong.

Take a look at the ingredient listings on your favourite personal care products.  Is there an ingredient listing to begin with?  If so, take a closer look.  Shampoos contain industrial-strength detergents.  Conditioners are loaded with silicones. Styling pomades include paraffin wax, mineral oils and petroleum jelly – all of which are byproducts of crude oil.

Cosmetic companies use chemicals in their products because of their cost – next to nothing.  They invest heavily in aggressive sales & marketing campaigns to tell you that you need their product to be beautiful.

The average woman uses 12 personal care products a day.  By the time she leaves home for the day, she’s covered herself in 125 different chemicals! 

Let’s take back the word “natural” for what it really means: existing in or derived from nature; not made or caused by humankind.  Living a natural life means being aware of what goes in & on our bodies; accepting & appreciating the features we were born with and loving ourselves unconditionally.

Be an informed consumer.  Before you purchase any personal care product for yourself and your loved ones, read the ingredient listing.  Ingredients are listed from most to least.  If there is an ingredient you’re not sure of, avoid it altogether.  Research the company that makes the products.  Shop at local markets or online stores that specialize in actual natural products.  It’s possible to be beautiful inside & out without exposing yourself to harmful toxins!
