A 101 GUIDE TO BRIOGEO

 

image of Briogeo's Dont despair repair bottleFounded by Nancy Twine in 2012 and inspired by the vibrant city of New York and its core values of individuality, positivity and transparency, {Briogeo} is about celebrating everything that makes you you - preach! Its texture-specific products offer something for everyone, no matter your hair type and texture.

Its {hair care} falls into eight categories: Don’t Despair, Repair! (for dry and damaged hair), Curl Charisma (for healthy and defined curls), Blossom & Bloom (for fine, thin hair), Farewell Frizz (for smoothing and taming), Scalp Revival (for dandruff and scalp conditions), Briogeo Superfoods (for a healthy dose of vitamins), Be Gentle, Be Kind (a fragrance-free collection) and B.Well (supplements and wellness from the inside out).

All of Briogeo’s products are crafted from cruelty-free ingredients, which are 90 to100 percent naturally derived, and it prides itself on its ‘6-free hair care’ - meaning that the formulas are free from sulphates, parabens, phthalates, silicones, DEA and synthetic colour - cheers to that! All their bottles are recycled (and recyclable) too, so the brand really does as good as it looks.

Here’s a detailed look at Briogeo’s hair care offering, including our top picks from the brand, the best shampoo for your hair type, and expert tips from Cult Concierge expert {Ryan} about how to use this empowering brand.

HOW TO USE BRIOGEO

Here are some tips from Cult Concierge expert Ryan to help you get the most out of your Briogeo products:

  1. Hair washing is very personal to your needs and hair type, and most hair does not need daily washing. When it comes to how often you should wash your hair with Briogeo, a good baseline way to look at it is:
  • Oily Hair: Wash your hair every other day using a non-stripping formula, and once a week use a hair scrub/exfoliant or clarifying mask.
  • Dry/Brittle Hair: Wash 1 to 2 times a week.
  1. The Briogeo scalp massager is an amazing addition to everyone's hair wash ritual as it helps to both effectively and gently reach the scalp to help lift buildup, as well as increase blood flow, which helps with hair growth.
  2. After shampooing your hair, use an appropriate conditioner for your hair type, even if your hair is on the oily side.
