If J. Crew is Selling It, You Know It's Good! (Lavett & Chin Hair Care)

Introducing a collection of two hair products, a Sea Salt Spray and Pomade, made using the most amazing ingredients, and sold exclusively through J. Crew stores and JCrew.com. The founder, Brent Lavett, is a celebrity hairstylist who actually styles all the hair for J. Crew photo and catalogue shoots.

The Lavett & Chin Sea Salt/Texturing Mist {$30 at jcrew.com} is like beach hair in a bottle. A natural alternative for recreating the beautiful texture and body hair gets from a day at the beach-the ultimate expression of casual chic. Once upon a time, getting this sexy look sans a trip seaside was challenging. Before sea salt sprays were as popular as they are today, Lavett & Chin was on a mission to create the finest, highest quality product that actually hydrated and conditioned hair {instead of making it dry and strawlike, as some other salt sprays tend to do}, while thickening and accentuating hair’s sensual natural texture. In 1999, after years of dedicated research, the brand debuted one of the first ever Sea Salt/Texturizing Mists and started a hair styling revolution. The unisex spray creates incomparable waves and volume while infusing hair with vital minerals and healthy nutrients. The delicate formula starts with only the finest sea salt obtainable, pure Maris sal, harvested from the only active sea salt bed in North America. This precious salt has been renowned for centuries as a therapeutic moisturizer. So, unlike other salt sprays, Lavett & Chin Sea Salt/Texturizing Mist will never dry out hair. High quality certified organic ingredients like Rosa Damascena from Bulgaria’s famour Valley of the Roses, Oryza Sativa Extract, and Spirulina Algae Extract help protect, soothe, and soften hair.



No. 02 Pomade by Lavett & Chin {$38 at jcrew.com} is just what you need for beautiful, manageable hair.  It is one of the most luxurious and effective pomades, blended from only the finest herbs, oils, and extracts. Founder Brent Lavett, was at a loss to find a pomade light enough for the way he worked, AND healthy enough to feel good about putting on his clients’ hair and scalp. Inspired by the Queen Cleopatra’s ancient recipe for a crushed apple pomade, the multitalented Lavett created No.02 Pomade from only certified organic and other exceptional quality active natural ingredients for a pomade that is the perfect combination of lightness and performance. This unisex blend has been precisely formulated to add desired texture with just a tiny pea sized amount. With a flexible hold you can run your fingers through, this pomade delivers coveted shine, manageability, and smoothness. No.02 Pomade is exceptionally conditioning, yet washes out with just water. Featuring Indian Mango Butter, hand separated and cooked to form the base of this luscious wax, No.02 Pomade is then blended with nourishing Ugandan Shea Butter to deliver healthy strands and natural UV protection. With Balsam from El Salvador, Ginger Root from Madagascar, and essential oils this blend brings the world’s most beneficial essential elements to your fingertips.

Both of these products sound so luxurious, with ingredients good enough to eat! I can't wait to get my hands on them and see how they work in my hair, when it's in curls and also when it's straightened. Until next time...
