“As a curly that has been through the ringer when it comes to finding the right hair products, I LOVE sharing when I find a new brand that works for me. So, meet Hairstory.”
⏤ Kiana Tipton,
Naturally Curly
“The results are wild. My long hair air-dries perfectly, with no “squeaky” texture. It is shiny and falls in loose waves, like it did when I was a kid. I don’t need to blow-dry it. My chronic flaky scalp is gone forever. I customarily wash my hair every three days. With New Wash, once a week. When friends remark that my hair looks nice, it’s fun to say, “I haven’t shampooed in six months.” Which is technically accurate.”
⏤ Molly Young,
NY Magazine
“In my five months using [New Wash], way more people have taken notice of the increased lustre in my hair. I’ve personally noticed a new thickness and ease of movement that I’ve never had — neither before nor during my platinum days.”
⏤ Alana Massey,
Racked
“It’s rare when a zeitgeist-rattling beauty destination opens. We’ve seen our share of glitzy salons with rococo mirrors and complimentary champagne, exclusive celebrity spas with gadgets and gizmos aplenty […] But the reason a downtown New York City studio called Hairstory became an immediate cult sensation and championed by beauty editors is thanks to an artistic commitment frequently compared to Andy Warhol’s Factory.”
⏤ Katie Becker,
Allure
“My life = changed. New Wash is the most incredible blend of non-toxic, nourishing, but somehow also cleansing ingredients that acts as a very gentle cleanser, but also deeply moisturizes your hair. I don’t understand how it works, but I’m super into it.”
⏤ Laurel Pantin,
Coveteur
“I am positively baffled by how shiny, hydrated, unoily and thick and lustrous my hair feels post New Wash. [...] I’m so nervous about running out, I’m going to join the Fan Club. The texture reminds me of my hair pre-coloring and pre-over heat styling. I’m telling you, friends. New Wash is a veritable time machine. Get into it.”
⏤ Amber Katz,
Rouge18
“It wasn’t until I gave up traditional shampoo and switched to New Wash that I got the glossy, frizz-free waves of my dreams.”
⏤ Victoria Hoff,
Byrdie
“Focused on individuality, colour and a liberating, non-conventional approach to hair, the results are artful and inspiring, accompanied by an imperfect standard of beauty that we can get behind.”
⏤ Wallpaper*
"I was doubtful a monogamous hair product relationship was for me, until I met Hairstory New Wash."

A LETTER TO HAIRDRESSERS
The salon industry is undergoing unprecedented upheaval and change is happening faster than most people either realize or are ready to acknowledge. The rise of the smartphone enables booking appointments, charging for services and hair products, and essentially managing an entire business for very little cost.
If there was any salon profit, it came from retail sales, which are now under at least as much pressure as service revenues. Every professional retail line is for sale on Amazon with free delivery, and half of them are selling their styling products directly to Amazon. Consumers are still buying the first bottle in salon based on their hairdresser’s recommendation, but they are replenishing online. It’s a massive change in consumer behavior. These days, with a tap and a click, you can have a box of goodies delivered to your door, whether that means shampoo and conditioner, hair treatments and masks, dry shampoo and other essential hair care products to pamper those strands.
Putting that all together, I believe the salon as we know it is going to be extinct in ten years. But we have created a new way forward to support hairdressers as they adapt to the new economy. And that is precisely why we say we’ve dedicated ourselves to helping people rethink everything about hair care in a world where the old rules don’t apply.
– Eli Halliwell, Hairstory CEO

FAQ
How do you keep your hair healthy?
We all want to know how to prevent split ends and damaged hair. While there is a lot that can contribute to the health of your hair (diet, environmental factors, hair type, etc) there is one thing we know for sure. If you wash your hair with shampoo, you are essentially washing it with chemicals and detergents that strip your hair of it's natural oils and can lead to a dry scalp, frizz, and brittle hair. Try cleansing your hair with New Wash - a moisturizing formula made of naturally derived ingredients like argan oil that will retain your hairs natural strength and shine.
What is a good hair routine?
The beauty of using New Wash is that your hair care routine can be so simple yet all you need. The key is in the washing technique. Distribute New Wash evenly through wet hair and massage thoroughly (Pro tip: use our scalp brush to activate the hair follicles). Rinse really, really, REALLY well. Your fingers should glide through wet hair without using conditioner. If you feel your hair needs more love, just repeat. You can't overuse New Wash.
