Nettle is a real plant treasure, generously offered to us on embankments and ditches. It's also a real beauty treasure for the hair and skin, thanks to its exceptional composition of minerals and trace elements including silica, potassium, sulphur, zinc, iron and calcium, as well as vitamins C, B2, B5, B9 and A. The nettle powder we offer is made from very finely ground leaves and aerial parts of the plant, harvested in spring and summer.

Nettle is renowned for stimulating hair growth and combating hair loss. Its richness in trace elements also makes it an ideal ally for purifying the scalp and keeping it healthy, while preventing the appearance of dandruff. Stinging Nettle powder has an invigorating and revitalising effect on all scalps!

How can it be used?

• in your home-made hair masks before shampooing, combined with other plant powders
