Handcrafted Hair Conditioner Bar for Wavy & Curly Hair

Developed for wavy and curly hair, this handcrafted conditioner bar pairs cupuacu butter, regularly used for water absorption and plumping, with murumuru butter, used for intensive emollient locking.

Abyssinian oil is commonly used for detangling slip and for closing porous cuticles to manage frizz, tucuma butter adds a heavy barrier, and castor oil is often used to seal split ends.

Hair care engages touch at every step, and the step depends on the product. Cleansing products lift buildup and surface bacteria from the hair and scalp (Bloomfield et al., 2007). Conditioning products add oils and lipids that smooth the hair surface and reduce fiber friction (Robbins, 2012). Styling and leave-in products add glide through the same surface smoothing, which lowers mechanical stress on the fibers during combing and styling (Robbins, 2012; Rele & Mohile, 2003). At any step, massage-like pressure on the scalp activates the touch receptors around the hair follicles (McGlone et al., 2014) and is associated with reduced stress and relaxation (Field, 2010).

Anyone with a skin condition, allergies, or sensitivities should consult a physician or dermatologist before use.
