Are Ivy & Elder products good for wavy and curly hair?

Yes. Both products are designed for lightweight hydration, frizz control, and soft, natural definition, which makes them ideal for 2A-3B waves and curls. They enhance texture without heaviness or buildup.

Are your products clean and non-toxic?

Yes. Our formulas are made without phthalates, parabens, synthetic fragrance, silicones, PEGs, mineral oil, or harsh sulfates. Our wave spray is EWG VERIFIED®, and our leave-in mask holds a safe EWG rating of 2. Both are gentle, fragrance-free, and suitable for sensitive scalps, teens, and everyday use.

Are your products safe for kids and teens with wavy or curly hair?

Absolutely. Our products are fragrance-free and gentle, which makes them ideal for kids and teens with sensitivities, hormonal changes, or dry, frizz-prone texture.

Will the wave spray make my hair crunchy?

No. Wear the Wind is lightweight and non-crunchy. It creates soft, touchable waves and curls without stiffness, grit, or stickiness.

Do your products work on fine wavy hair?

Yes. Both formulas were created to be weightless and buildable, so they define texture without weighing down fine strands.

What curl types are your products best for?

Ivy & Elder works beautifully for 2A, 2B, 2C, and 3A textures. Wavy and wavy-curly hair benefits most from lightweight moisture and silicone-free styling.

Can I use your products if I heat style my waves or curls?

Yes. Willow Talk helps protect against breakage and dryness, while Wear the Wind creates smooth, soft texture under diffusers, wands, or low-heat tools.

Are your products silicone-free?

Yes. Both formulas are completely silicone-free, which helps waves and curls stay bouncy and free from long-term buildup.

Do your products contain drying alcohols?

Our products do not contain harsh or moisture-stripping alcohols. While a small amount of Alcohol Denat. is used in our formulas to dissolve botanical extracts or keep the product lightweight, it evaporates quickly and does not dry out the hair or scalp.

Are your products fragrance-free?

Yes. All Ivy & Elder products are completely fragrance-free, with no synthetic fragrance and no masking agents. They are ideal for sensitive users, migraine-prone people, and teens.

How do I build a clean routine for wavy or curly hair?

Start with lightweight moisture using Willow Talk to reduce frizz and strengthen strands. Follow with Wear the Wind for soft, non-crunchy texture enhancement. Scrunch or twist and air-dry, diffuse, or heat-style for defined waves and curls.

Can I use Ivy & Elder products on dry hair to refresh waves or curls?

Yes. Wear the Wind works on dry hair to revive flattened waves, smooth frizz, and restore light definition. It is perfect for next-day touch-ups and refreshing your natural texture.

Your Hair Type: Natural curl

Awesome Products

I've been using these products for a while. However, it was after watching your instructional video that I truly appreciated how great they are. I now layer the products and allow my hair to dry naturally with excellent results.

Your Hair Type: mid-length, medium (not fine or thick), mix of natural color & silver

Best Hair Care!

I use Willow Talk after shampooing in the evening and usually go to bed with my hair still wet. It tames the texture and frizz of the silver hair while helping to preserve the waves even through sleeping. I tend to use Wear the Wind on already dry hair to refresh - a little spritz of water and then a spritz of Wear the Wind only where needed. It works wonderfully on the frizzy silvers, especially those closest to the face in the front of the ears - from cotton candy texture to smooth wave. I'm so pleased with these products!

Your Hair Type: Long & fine

Love them both!

I absolutely love these products! I have long, fine hair and love that these are clean, unscented products that are safe for my crazy allergies. I started with Wear the Wind and didn't think I needed anything else. But when Willow Talk came back in stock it was a game changer! It is now my favorite product as it makes hair healthier and stronger while conditioning and adding slip. I love that they don't contain silicones and I don't have static issues. I'm hooked!
