It used to be that vegan products in the beauty space were very niche and trendy — and hard to find. For the products that advertised being vegan, the formulas seemed inferior to its general market counterparts and the results were often less than satisfactory. Today, veganism isn’t just a fad. It’s a lifestyle and people are dedicating not only their diets but their lives to eliminating chemicals and foreign ingredients and sticking with goods that come from nature itself.
Whether you’re a fully committed vegan or simply cleaning up your lifestyle, these super-performing vegan hair products will replace your old formulas without compromise.
