About Us  

Hairstory was born from a fundamental belief: The world needs fewer, better things.  Did anyone ever really want the confusing array of products, the complex regimens, or the waste that goes with excess? We didn't - and we knew there was a simple solution. 

So, we rewrote the story and focused on just what you need. We made it our mission to redesign haircare that's better for hair, better for hairdressers, and better for the planet. 

We developed formulas free from detergents with gentle ingredients that are naturally effective, intensely nourishing, and environmentally responsible. Creating a collection of products that help you do more with less, give you hair you've always dreamed of, and promise to deliver healthy haircare, without compromise. 

At Hairstory, we believe everyone deserves smarter, more straightforward, and sustainable haircare. Products that solve real-world problems. And we want to share our story with you. This is the future of the industry, formulated to give you your best hair day, every day. This is Simply. Better. Haircare.
