For years, I wanted to get long healthy hair just like my dado. Her approach to haircare was mainly traditional remedies that her mother or grandmother had used. After my constant insistence she agreed on finding that hair oil recipe for me. For as long as she was with us she made me this oil and it became my holy grail.

I started getting compliments on my hair and that’s when I knew I was finally using the right thing. After my dado passed away her hair oil recipe was one of the few things I acquired from her belongings. It also made me realise how easily generations of remedies can be forgotten and not many of us have the opportunity to discover these or have these passed on.

This realisation became the foundation of Hair & Co.
