introducing
the baomint™ collection, prioritizes a healthy scalp for steady hair growth from root to tip. happy scalp = happy hair
taking advantage of nature’s goodies allowed us to create a collection promoting intense moisture and elongation to deliver healthy + happy coils for all kinky-curly-wavy kinds. our baomint™ collection yields best results when used as a complete system. we've sourced top of the line ingredients including:
baobab oil, useful to treat dandruff/dry scalp, eczema, psoriasis and rosacea. baobab oil contains vitamins a, d, e, and is packed with omega 3, 6 + 9.
peppermint oil produces menthol primarily and like other essential oils, peppermint oil can help stimulate hair growth through its ability to increase blood circulation. start with our tingling shampoo and deep conditioner treatment to set your regimen.
spearmint oil naturally has anti-fungal and antibacterial properties making it an effective treatment for certain scalp conditions, particularly dandruff. the cooling menthol helps to sustain relief and is an excellent remedy for itchiness and dryness.
wintergreen oil helps purge dandruff and flakes from your scalp. it leaves a cooling and rejuvenating sensation in addition to its anti-fungal properties.
we're old school. our word is our bond.

moisture is life for kinky hair. so, how do you get it + maintain it?
truth is, moisture is essential to maintaining healthy curls. moisture is as critical to natural hair as the air we breathe to stay alive. we all know we need it, but many naturals still do not know how to attain it and retain it. start your washday with our naturally derived, super moisturizing shampoo and deep conditioner as a foundation to achieving your best hair. we’ve infused the perfect blend of a moisturizer and a super light, yet effective cleanser, dedicated to lifting dirt and product buildup from your hair and scalp without drying out your natural curls. after applying our shampoo and deep conditioner you will instantly notice a difference in your curls. expect your hair to be soft, shiny and manageable. you’ll be ready for styling with any of our water-based styling products.
here’s our guide to building your basic regimen to cure your dry hair woes:
step 1
begin your wash day with our baomint shampoo, to treat the hair and scalp with a moisturizing lather from its rich aloe vera base. baomint shampoo is formulated to gently cleanse all of the impurities from the hair and scalp without leaving strands stripped. weekly use is encouraged. pro tip: shampoo raises your cuticles and you must follow up with a deep conditioner (not a rinse out conditioner) to lower them.
step 2
apply our baomint deep conditioning treatment to your hair from tip to roots to soften and moisturize your hair, and prep for styling. we highly suggest adding heat to this treatment to experience noticeable results after first use. if your hair has low porosity, we suggest monthly steam treatments. remember to always deep conditioner after shampooing to lower your cuticles and lock in the moisture. this is a very important step.
step 3 +
on wet or damp hair, add a few pumps of our baomint leave in conditioning styler throughout your hair.
+ you may proceed to styling your wet hair with your moisturizing baomint curl defining cream OR moisturizing baomint curl defining gel. pro tip: styling on wet hair will seal in the product, helping hair strands absorb the ingredients for the best definition and moisture.
