PRODUCTS
WASH
Can I use WASH on other parts of my body?
While WASH is not designed to use on the body, we have heard many positive reports of how great it is to use under the arms and other bits. Use at your own risk.
Can I spray WASH onto my locs/extensions/braids?
The light formulation of WASH smells fantastic and may be sprayed periodically to freshen dreads. Over spraying is not recommended.
Can WASH replace my regular shampoo?
Everyone has a different cleansing routine. We say try it and if you feel the need to use a traditional shampoo once in a while, that’s ok too. WASH is formulated to cleanse the scalp fast and effectively without wetting all the hair.
How often should I use WASH?
WASH as often as you need. People with active lifestyles or heavy perspiration may use it everyday.
REPLENISH
Is REPLENISH safe for Children?
Because this product contains pure essential oils, it is not recommended for children under the age of 6.
What is REPLENISH?
REPLENISH is a light oil formulated for mild to moderate dry scalp.
How often can I use REPLENISH?
REPLENISH is safe to use as frequently as you like.
CHILL
What is CHILL?
CHILL is a topical cooling oil for people with low pain tolerance during and after hair services that require excessive pulling (ie: dreadlocking, braiding, twisting).
I have a high pain tolerance on my head, do I need CHILL?
No, but it still feels refreshing - especially on hot days.
Is CHILL safe for Children?
Because this product contains pure essential oils, it is not recommended for children under the age of 6.
Why is CHILL so intense?
The intensity is what helps to combat the discomfort caused by hair services that require pulling.
When should I use CHILL?
The best times are while you get your hair worked on and that night before bed. It’s also great to use once in a while to alleviate tenderness or itchiness.
How long does the cooling sensation last?
Once applied, about 30 - 45 minutes.
How long before I feel CHILL working?
Some people feel it almost immediately but it usually takes about 3 minutes to build intensity.
What is CHILL suppose to feel like?
The sensation is cool to cold. Some people feel a mild tingling. We recommend testing a small spot at the nape of your neck before using the product all over.
I got CHILL in my eyes, what do I do?
Keep your eyes closed. DO NOT USE WATER. Water intensifies the sensation. Instead find any regular oil such as olive, coconut, sesame, hemp, sunflower etc. Apply liberally on the affected area. Regular oil will dilute CHILL and minimize the sensation. There are no known lasting side effects. If pain continues or worsens, seek medical attention.
GLOW
What’s the difference between REPLENISH and GLOW?
Think of REPLENISH as a light moisturizer and GLOW as a serum or heavy moisturizer.
REPLENISH has a grapeseed carrier oil and GLOW has 6 carriers including 2 kinds of castor oil.
Can everyone use GLOW?
Yes and no. GLOW is formulated to lock in moisture. It has a thick viscosity so it will sit on top of the skin and absorb slowly. GLOW is best for textured hair types and/or dry scalp conditions.
Why is GLOW a dark color?
Some of the thicker carrier oils in GLOW, like castor and avocado, are more opaque. The color is natural.
