We all want soft, luscious, beautiful hair, but the number of products that it seems to take to get there can feel pretty overwhelming. After all, who’s got the time, money, and space for a long and involved hair care routine? But here’s the great news: Getting the healthy hair you crave doesn’t actually require a ton of different products. In fact, New Wash from the brand Hairstory is more or less all you need.
New Wash isn’t a shampoo or a conditioner. Unlike shampoo, it doesn’t have harmful detergents that strip the good oils from your scalp and damage your hair. Instead, it uses naturally-derived essential oils and fatty alcohols to gently cleanse your hair. The formula rebalances your scalp, meaning it won’t get as greasy and you won’t have to wash your hair as often. And because New Wash keeps your hair so shiny and soft on its own, you don’t even need to use conditioner afterwards.
No matter if your hair is thick, straight, curly, or colored, New Wash will work just as effectively. In addition to the original formula, it’s available in a rich version with extra moisture, and a deep version for a more intense clean. Check out the Hairstory website for a quick quiz that’ll help you figure out which type is right for you, and whether there are any other post-shower products that will help you get your perfect look.
The other great thing about New Wash is that the formula is biodegradable and comes in pouches rather than bottles. By using just the one product and making the shift to resealable pouches, you’ll cut down your plastic consumption by 91%. And with the Hairstory refill club, you can get free shipping and discounts of up to 15% on each order.
