Seven oils

Seven oils, seven glows.

Every oil in the blend has its own colour, so each one gets its own glow. Listed the way they are poured, most first.

  1. The gloss01

    Apricot kernel oil

    Shine and slip

    The heart of necter. A light, silky oil pressed from the apricot stone. It smooths the surface of each strand so it reflects light, and that is where the shine comes from.

  2. The lightness02

    Grapeseed oil

    Light, fast-absorbing feel

    One of the lightest plant oils there is. Its two-kinked fatty acids keep the blend fluid and quick to sink in, so hair feels soft, never heavy.

  3. The conditioner03

    Pumpkin seed oil

    Conditions the lengths

    Deep green and rich in fatty acids and plant sterols. It conditions the lengths so they feel stronger and look healthier.

  4. The cushion04

    Castor oil

    Coats to reduce breakage

    Thick and glossy, thanks to one extra hydroxyl group on its main fatty acid. It coats and cushions each strand to help reduce breakage, so your lengths can keep growing.

  5. The balance05

    Jojoba oil

    Soft, natural finish

    Technically a liquid wax, not an oil. Its long, straight molecules resemble the oils your scalp makes, which gives the blend a soft, natural finish.

  6. The satin06

    Sour cherry kernel oil

    Slip and satin finish

    Pressed from the stone of the sour cherry, the apricot’s cousin in the Prunus family. It adds slip and a satin finish.

  7. The guardian07

    Vitamin E

    Keeps the oils fresh

    An antioxidant that protects the oils themselves, keeping the blend fresh in the bottle from the first drop to the last.

How to use

Three steps. Thirty seconds.

  1. Cupped palms holding a few golden drops of oil

    Step 1

    Two or three drops in your palms. Rub them together until the oil feels warm.

  2. Smoothing oil through long, glossy lengths

    Step 2

    Smooth

    Press through your mid-lengths and ends first, then skim lightly over the top for shine.

  3. A sleek, glossy low bun

    Step 3

    Wear it, or sleep in it

    Use on damp hair before styling, on dry hair to finish, or leave it in overnight and wash it out in the morning.

Fine hair: start with one drop. Thick or curly hair: add more as you need.

Honest by design

A cosmetic, not a cure.

necter is made for shine, softness and the look of healthy hair. It is not intended to diagnose, treat or prevent any scalp or medical condition, including dandruff, a flaky scalp or psoriasis.

Questions

Good to know.

Will it make my hair greasy?

Not when you use it sparingly. Start with one or two drops, focus on the ends, and add more only if your hair drinks it in.

Is it right for my hair type?

The blend is light enough for fine hair and rich enough for thick, coily or curly hair. The amount is what changes: one drop for fine hair, several for thick.

Does necter make hair grow?

necter conditions and cushions your lengths to help reduce breakage, so the hair you grow is easier to keep. It is a cosmetic, not a hair-loss treatment.

Can it help with dandruff, a flaky scalp or psoriasis?

No. necter is a cosmetic hair oil and is not intended to treat any scalp or medical condition. If you have a scalp concern, please talk to your GP or a dermatologist.

I have allergies. Is it safe for me?

necter contains kernel and seed oils, including apricot and cherry kernel oils. Check the ingredient list, and patch test on a small area 24 hours before first use. If you are unsure, ask your doctor.
