“It is my hope to inspire and empower you to put yourself first so you can feel confident and happy as you venture into the world of hair and scalp care—starting at your roots,” writes Sarah Lee, the founder of VAMA Wellness, on her haircare brand’s website.
The Chinese born, Canadian entrepreneur who was raised in India before moving to Toronto knows of what she speaks. And she means what she says too, both literally and figuratively. Her 13 Blend Pre-Wash Hair Oil is proof.
Fuelled with powerful plant extracts, Ayurvedic herbs and a plethora of rich oils, inclusive of sesame, coconut, sweet almond, rosemary, sandalwood, chebula fruit, and castor and sativa seed oils, this pre-wash is all about the do-good, feel-great impact. Its vegan formula is crafted with a blend of 13 core ingredients that work hard to stimulate hair growth, treat and repair damaged, brittle hair, and nourish and soothe a dry and itchy scalp. Something we didn’t know we needed until Vama’s 13 Blend made our hair softer and more manageable after each use.
All we have to do is apply one or two droppers of oil into our hands, emulsify them and then massage the product into our dry hair, once or twice a week. Then, we comb the product through with the brand’s Scalp Massage Comb for even distribution, additional blood circulation (for hair growth) and for our favourite part, extra relaxation. It’s like getting a scalp massage at the spa. (Sometimes, we’re so relaxed we simply drape a towel over our pillow and go to bed with the oil in our hair, but we typically wash it out after about 15 minutes.) And then, all that’s left to do is reflect on me-time well spent, while enjoying our hair’s silky soft goodness.
Vama 13 Blend Pre-Wash Hair Oil, $39 for 50 ml, and Scalp Massage Comb, $18, are both available online at www.vamawellness.ca.
