We Make Products That Work

We pride ourselves on our meticulous selection of natural ingredients to ensure they are both gentle on the hair and deliver results. And we believe that what we leave out of our formulations is as important as what we put in. That’s why you won’t find ingredients like salt, paba, parabens, gluten and DEA in any of our products.

Innovation in hair care is our passion. With over 25 years of handcrafting professional salon products, we understand the complexity and intricacies of different hair types and are committed to researching new solutions using better ingredients that will make an immediate and noticeable difference in your hair.

We Create ADifferent StandardOf BeautyWe don’t think of beauty in the traditional sense. It’s more than how you look. At AG we’re most inspired by simplicity and confidence. While we look to magazines and runway shows for hair trends, it’s the girl reading the magazine that we are drawn to and the effortless style we see on the street outside the show that truly fascinates us. We approach everything we do with an air of simplicity and grace. It’s the common thread that is woven throughout our brand – from our bottles and merchandising materials to our website and imag-ery. Simple, natural ingredients that deliver healthy hair with unpreten-tious style. Nothing is more beautiful.

We Give BackReal beauty comes from real purpose. Since 2008 we’ve built 5 schools and raised over $1.5 million through the sale of our products and the generous donations from salons we service. We work with the local communities to build these schools and 100% of our donations go directly to the projects.
