Climate change is no longer a foreign concept, and we can see the effects of it every day, mostly in the form of extreme weather and day-to-day environmental factors.

There is one effect of climate change that you might not see, but may definitely experience, and that is the effect it has on your hair and scalp. Simply put, our hair gets damaged by various environmental factors, including heat waves, UV rays, excessive humidity, drought, air pollution, acid rain, water pollution and static electricity – all of which are, in one way or another, by-products of climate change.

The damaged caused by these factors may include split ends, dryness and dehydration, frizzy hair, brittle hair, limp hair, scalp discomfort, excess sebum, hair colour fading and more – the list is seemingly endless.

But that may be a thing of the past thanks to Climaplex™, a 100% sustainable hair care brand designed to fight the damage climate change has on the hair. Climaplex™ is based on a multi-plex additive that is scientifically formulated to protect and repair the hair from the damaging effects of climate change.

Simon Ostler, the founder of Climaplex™ project, is an industry veteran with 40 years’ experience, having started his career as a stylist for the world renowned hairdressing group, Toni & Guy.

“Having worked in the professional haircare industry for almost 40 years as a hairdresser, salon owner, commercial manager and manufacturer, I have never seen such challenging problems for the hair and scalp. Climate change is having an adverse effect on both on a global scale. Through our close working relationship with professional hair stylists and salons we all agree there have been dramatic changes in both hair and scalp condition. The changes result in extreme difficulties for consumers when managing their hair. This is why we have launched a brand-new category in haircare – a range that targets the impact of climate change on the hair, using the very latest clinically approved technology,” says Simon.

How does Climaplex™ work?

The brand’s proprietary Climaplex Technology reconstructs broken disulfide bonds and rebuilds the outer layer of the cuticle to maintain hydration and hair structure after color, heat and chemical treatments.

Climaplex™ offers a complete line to repair and protect all hair types, including straight, wavy, curly, coily and textured.

The full range is vegan-, cruelty-, paraben, and SLE/SLS-free, made with 97% natural ingredients, and dermatologically tested with bottles made from recycled and recyclable plastic.
