Where it began

Good hair days start with a Good Wash Day.

Having started embracing my curls in early Spring 2020 I went down a rabbit hole of shampoos and conditioners and stylers and gels and cationic surfactants and polyquats and techniques. (I know, I need to get a new profile picture!).

Early on, my research led me to swapping out my usual bathroom towels for a more hair-friendly option. I tried T-shirts, a well-known concept in the curly community, but found them awkward to use: I avoided microfibre altogether on environmental grounds. I wanted a jersey cotton T-shirt towel, big enough to wrap my hair in, made in the UK and ethically sourced. I couldn’t find such an item so I created one.

Products have come and gone but my towel? It’s a keeper.

Since starting my business I have learned that this type of towel is better for ALL hair types. Because it’s so soft and gentle it is also helping people experiencing hair loss, and those recovering from chemotherapy.

Ethos

All my fabrics are certified by the worldwide leading textile processing standard for organic fibres. Certification criteria includes labour conditions and ecological and social factors, and it covers the entire supply chain.

In a similar vein, I've also spent a long time sourcing environmentally friendly packaging materials from other small independent businesses, where possible. Being a natural minimalist my intention is to keep packaging to a minimum, but as with all things it's a balancing act: I want my products to arrive safely, and to have a bit of a wow factor.

Talking of packaging ... when I receive your order I will personally wrap and pack your towel(s) at my kitchen table before taking them to Nisha and Raj who run my local Post Office.

To say that a fantastic customer experience is important to me is an understatement! If there is anything you wish to discuss please do get in touch.

  • "I’ve never used anything other than a cotton towel on my hair before, so trying this was like wrapping my hair in a cloud. So light and so soft around my hair! Great absorbing of water too and I didn’t have to leave it on for long for my hair to be dry enough for leave in conditioner. Will definitely buy again! Extra points for the kind attached little note and the compliment of my name. Thank you!"

  • "I've recently gone through chemotherapy and have a very sensitive scalp. Regular towels felt rough and pulled out what little hair I had left. I started using these amazing towels and they were a massive game changer! So soft and gentle on your scalp, they don’t tug, leave redness or cause any discomfort. I have three and now don’t use anything else! Not only are they great for curly or straight hair, they are great for no hair. I would highly recommend to anyone who suffers with hair loss."
