It leaves my hair feeling soft, shiny and silky, in ways that other shampoos just don’t. It’s rich and luxey, but doesn’t weigh down my fine hair – perfect for my weekly wash/self-care routine⁣

I got a bout of alopecia just after uni. I just developed these random patches all over my scalp. The doctor gave me an ointment and told me not to stress about it. So I applied the ointment and made myself forget about it. I went on adventures and counted my blessings that it wasn’t a debilitating condition and lived my life – the hair grew back⁣
