Hairy Jayne is an eco-friendly and creative hair care brand founded by a hairdresser – making small batches by hand and running fun hands-on workshops

 our sustainable hair care range in zero waste packaging

Hairy Jayne isn’t actually hairy

Hairy Jayne lives, breathes and specialises in natural hair care. Jayne was once a hairdresser (always covered in other peoples hair) and now makes a small batch zero waste hair care range by hand. She only ever formulates with naturally derived and 'clean' ingredients – sulphate free shampoos, natural conditioners and hair oils featuring lovely plant oils and beautiful essential oil blends.

Hairy Jayne is all about eco-friendly hair care that makes hair feel and smell lovely. Simple and handmade, with as little plastic as possible. No plastic bottles here, especially since learning about how little plastic is actually recycled.

What matters to us

It's not all about having great hair and smelling really nice :)

All of our packaging is sustainable – either biodegradable, plastic free, 100% recyclable or refillable. We plant trees and reduce carbon with Ecologi. Our products are made with 100% vegan ingredients and are 100% cruelty free. We source ingredients from suppliers in the UK. We use renewable energy to make our sustainable hair care. We re-use postal packaging where we can and send any plastic waste off to ReFactory.

Creating, inspiring and sharing

While being sustainable is very important, creativity is the real heart of Hairy Jayne.

Jayne loves to share what she has learnt along the way, and wants to inspire you! Read her blogposts, download a free recipe pdf, follow her on Instagram or Pinterest or come to a hands-on workshop in Bristol.

She wants to make it as easy as possible for you to have the knowledge, ingredients and things to make your own simple beauty remedies at home and to love your hair.

Not only less wasteful, but super satisfying too.

Meet Jayne

Jayne studied graphic design and illustration in Perth, Australia before moving to the UK in the late 90s. She retrained and worked as a hairdresser in London for almost 20 years before starting Hairy Jayne. She cared for many heads of hair before moving to Bristol and giving up hairdressing to focus on her business.

Her obsession with natural hair care came after buying some argan oil on a trip to Morocco, following a bad reaction to black hair dye. Her curiosity snowballed from there, and after many short courses, she learnt how to formulate her own recipes. She now makes a whole range of award winning zero waste hair care, and  she knows exactly what goes into every product. 

Carefully selected ingredients, rooted in hair science, that care more about your hair and our environment than 'the bottom line'. Nourishing plant oils, vegan and cruelty free ingredients and delicious fragrances made from essential oil blends. 

Feel free to ask Jayne at any time for hair care advice – she’s always happy to help.
