The Power of Tea in Haircare: What Makes Our Conditioners Different

The Power of Tea in Haircare: What Makes Our Conditioners Different

Posted by Ashley Bates on

Because curls deserve a cup of calm.


1. Why I Chose Tea as a Hero Ingredient

When I formulated our conditioners, I wanted more than surface-level softness. Teas deliver:
• Antioxidants that fight free-radical damage (hello, stronger strands).
• Tannins that naturally clarify without stripping.
• Bioactive polyphenols that soothe an itchy or inflamed scalp.

Fun fact: Butterfly pea tea’s vivid blue anthocyanins even help guard against UV-induced color fade.

2. Meet the Three Tea Stars in Our Line

Each of our conditioners is powered by a different tea—each with its own targeted benefit:
• Butterfly Pea Tea
Rich in antioxidants and anthocyanins, this vibrant blue tea helps improve hair elasticity, supports healthy pigment (great for preserving color or enhancing natural silver tones), and provides lightweight nourishment.

• Matcha Green Tea
Known for its detoxifying properties, matcha helps regulate oil production, soothes the scalp, and creates a clean foundation for growth and hydration.

• Hibiscus Tea
Naturally high in vitamin C and amino acids, hibiscus promotes shine, improves manageability, thickens the hair growth and boosts slip—making detangling a breeze.

3. How Tea-Infused Conditioners Outperform Traditional Rinse-Offs

Lightweight Hydration
• Micro-fine tea extracts penetrate quickly—no greasy film, no weighed-down roots.

pH-Smart Formulas
• Teas sit naturally around pH 5-6, matching healthy hair for smoother cuticles and more vibrant curl patterns.

Scalp-First Approach
• Anti-inflammatory catechins calm redness and flakes so protective styles stay comfortable longer.


4. Our Formulation Checklist (a peek behind the beaker)

• ✅ Whole-leaf infusions 
• ✅ Cold-processed oils to protect heat-sensitive tea antioxidants.
• ✅ No silicones that block the botanicals from doing their job.
• ✅ Biodegradable preservatives (Optiphen) for sensitive scalps and earth-friendly drains.


5. How to Work Tea Power into Your Wash-Day

1. Clarify first with a clay shampoo to give the tea a clean canvas.
2. Section & saturate—tea extracts like even coverage.
3. Finger-detangle while the slip is at its peak.
4. Rinse with cool water to seal in the nutrients.
5. Style as usual and notice the amplified bounce and shine.


6. Real-World Results

"My grandson uses this for his wash and goes. It gives him great definition and has his curls popping for a few weeks"- Monica S.

"This conditioner is amazing."-Verdelle W.


7. The Takeaway

Tea may feel timeless in your mug, but on your hair it’s downright revolutionary. By marrying ancient botanicals with modern, science-backed formulation, we created conditioners that hydrate, protect, and actually support scalp health. Sip the difference—then feel it every wash-day.
