My Hair. My Canvas. One-Year Anniversary!

We’re excited to say that this year marks the first anniversary of our latest line of the best vegan hair products — My Hair. My Canvas.

Since its launch just a year ago, the collection has expanded considerably and now covers all vegan hair care needs, from an Everyday Shampoo and Conditioner to a Shielding Hairspray and Air-Dry Balm.

Our latest additions were a Meltaway No-Rinse Micellar Hair Cleanser and the Restore Rituals collection, which includes a Cool Hydrations Masque, a Jelly Fix Repair Booster and a Glow Crazy Shine Booster.

Some of My Hair. My Canvas. hair products, particularly our Any Way Texture Spray and Glow For It Universal Gloss, have already won haircare awards in their respective categories.

Let’s rewind a little bit and remember why we decided that the world was ready for a high-quality, kind and empathetic vegan haircare brand.

Why We Created My Hair. My Canvas.

More than anything, our ideas about the new brand were steered by the belief that haircare is self-care. We saw the everyday haircare routine as an act of kindness and creativity, but couldn’t find versatile and high-performing products that gave us that particular feeling. So we decided to create our own.

The first job of My Hair. My Canvas. was to elevate your daily haircare habit — make it fun and effortless to create beautiful looks and reimagine yourself at the same time.

We also wanted to push boundaries when it came to sustainability and create 100% vegan formulas while still adding the unique benefits of caviar, which we had successfully used in our products for over 20 years (read more about our sustainable approach). So we’ve found similar transformative benefits in Vegan Botanical Caviar, manufactured using Eco-Sound® technology with minimal environmental impact, which now serves as a base for all My Hair. My Canvas. products.

In addition, we designed all My Hair. My Canvas. bottles, jars and tubes with 50% post-consumer recycled plastic and twist-open and close pumps to reduce plastic waste.

Finally, this year we also achieved another significant milestone — certifying the whole My Hair. My Canvas. collection by PETA to be completely cruelty-free, without any animal testing for any of the products.
