What: A celebrity hairstylist-founded hair-care brand offering water-activated shampoo and conditioner, as well as a leave-in hair oil.
Price Range: $36-$39
Founders: Michael Dueñas and Straun Phillips
Origin Story: Michael Dueñas, a celebrity hairstylist with more than 25 years in the industry, wanted to create a line that was better for hair and the environment. He also wanted a brand that didn’t use silicone, didn’t compromise on hair care and that could travel anywhere.
Dueñas teamed up with Straun Phillips, a chemist with an organic chemistry background, to create “the world’s first encapsulated powdered shampoo and conditioner,” along with a hair oil that doubles as a leave-in conditioner. By eliminating water and excess bulk, Arove’s products are travel-friendly and less than half the size of traditional liquid hair-care bottles, yet deliver the same number of uses but with more powerful results.
