My soul is drawn to nature. Take me to wilderness and I’m happy. Snowy mountains, deserts, jungles, rolling plains, remote islands; I love the immersion in stillness and solitude amidst the teeming universal force.
We developed our 3’’’More Inches product range around natural ingredients. We like natural ingredients because it feels right and they generally perform better. But where natural supplies are unreliable, inconsistent or in danger of being depleted, we’ll use nature-identical versions. And where science creates something with improved performance and long term health we’ll use that too. Our 25 different products range from about 80 – 100% naturally derived ingredients. And our aim is to consciously produce world leading hair care products as naturally as possible.
We thought you’d be interested to know all the everyday names of the 200 or so ingredients we choose from. So we are putting all the common names and functions of the ingredients for each product on our website.

Sea kelp is rich in minerals. It adds protection to the surface of the hair, reducing moisture loss and infusing it with vitamins. Seaweed proteins strengthen roots, add body and shine and condition the scalp and hair.

Lavender Oil has anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial, anti-fungal and antiseptic properties which help soothe scalp conditions and reduce hair loss.
