new wash
It’s a cream cleanser. Toxic free. No suds, no foaming like shampoo…which is weird at first but that foaming is what makes hair big and fluffy when it’s clean, rather than supple with its natural oils still left on the strands. New Wash gets your head clean but your hair stays kind of amazing!
My very favorite two formulas are the original formula and the rich formula. I use the original formula for pretty much everyone. The rich formula I save for highly processed colored hair and extremely dry coarse hair. I know that Hairstory recommends the deep formula for fine hair. Personally, I do not feel like it cleanses as well as the original formula. My favorite for fine hair is the original formula and a little bit of powder at the roots. This is going to give the look of separated textured hair without the weight of not using shampoo because the powder will give you more volume. For more coarse or damaged hair, use the rich new wash. For almost everybody I recommend the original formula. It really helps to buy the scalp massage brush if it’s your first time using New Wash. Use a generous amount, rinse really well, and scrub your scalp-it feels really good.

HAIR BALM
Balm is an end cream for hair. It creates a piece-y separated texture without your hair being greasy or crunchy. It has a satin finish so the ends of your hair will look not shiny but also not matte. It’s amazing for dry ends and for curls as it’s the most amazing, defining product. I like to put it on wet or dry hair. It also works amazing for short hair that’s getting puffy or full in an unflattering way-to slick it back or push it over without feeling sticky or heavy. To be used on mid bits and ends of hair, not at the roots unless you have very short hair.
UNDRESSED
A light volumizing spray that creates texture and body on hair, from roots to the ends. It adds just a bit of grit and body, amazing for naturally wavy hair, shorter hair, or straight hair that tends to be a little underwhelming. This will beef it up and make it a bit more interesting. You can use it generously and pretty much all over!

POWDER
This is my favorite Hairstory product besides New Wash, I love this dry shampoo because I love hair when it’s kind of dirty but I hate the way it gets flat. It’s not just a dry shampoo but it’s a light airy powder that you puff on to roots-it adds tons of volume at the crown while sucking any oils that might weigh your hair down at the top of your head. Especially nice for when your hair isn’t ready to be washed but bangs are a bit oily and the best thing about it is that it works on dark hair also and doesn’t leave a chalky white film like other dry shampoos. It’s talc free and just feels weightless but adds volume. The perfect thing to use when you don’t have time to wash your hair but it’s time to refresh it. Super perfect product to accompany first time new wash users during the transition period. This goes on completely dry hair, either clean or dirty. Clean will make it more voluminous, dirty will add volume and suck up the oils.
HAIR OIL
This is the lightest oil, it repairs damage, smooth the cuticle, reduces frizz, and does wonders for dry, thirsty hair. Be mindful to use it on your ends or driest parts only. I will be sharing more about it as I get to know this product but so far I am incredibly impressed!
LIFT
Lift is my new favorite product for curls. Different from Undressed, it has an exact combination of hold and oil that almost makes it act the way I remember mousse acting. It will not dry out your hair and a little goes a long way. My favorite thing to do is to spritz it on curls and waves once they are dry. Lift makes them bigger, bouncier, and more beautiful.
free your hair brush (LARGE)
This brush was designed by my good friend, Roxie Jane Hunt. I use it before cleansing with New Wash every time.
I really love for people to brush their hair. I think it’s super good to stimulate the scalp and keep healthy hair growing. I really prefer the old-fashioned style- a whole bunch of strokes to drag the natural oils through the strands, keeping the hair beautiful.
As well, I’m so excited to announce my collaboration with my dear friend Roxie at Free Your Hair Brush Co. My new logo brushes come in both the large and small sizes.

A smaller version of my favorite Free Your Hair brush. The small size makes it great for travel.
Professional Stylist Razor
The Straight Razor is the professional tool I recommend for all hairdressers looking to transition into the art of razor cutting. It is exceptionally sharp, lacks a guard, and allows for detailed work, cutting, and the creation of soft ends. Personally, I love using it to carve out delicate petals and scoop away excess weight when hair becomes heavy. It's a more advanced tool compared to the guarded razor. Often, people will ask me about the wooden handle, but in truth, the handle is just a handle. What truly matters is the quality of your razor blade. You can order the blades here.
DIY Styling Razor
The Guarded Razor is the name of the DIY razor. I use this razor both on my child's hair and on my own. It's my recommended tool for clients or followers who prefer cutting their hair at home. The razor features a safety guard, ensuring a precise cut without the risk of injury. While it provides a precise result, it also gives a very soft finish, making it ideal for beginners. This is the tool I consistently use in all my DIY classes. Replacement blades for the guarded razor can be found here.
