Our all-in-one hair products immediately transform hair and provide instant visible results. Achieve supple, lightweight, silky-smooth texture using 12 Benefits™. Our performance on hair appeals to discerning hairstylists and consumers who demand the very best quality.

We use only pharmaceutical quality ingredients that contain no additives, sulfates, gluten, formaldehyde based preservatives, or petrochemicals. And, 12 Benefits is never tested on animals.

We source our ingredients for the best in hair wellness: Imported Silk, New Zealand Keratin, Avocado Oil from Italy, Argan Oil from Africa, Moisturizers from Japan and Plant Pectin from Denmark are examples; all blended with triple processed purified steam-distilled water.

Our minimalist ingredient approach enables us to provide clean, superior performing products. Our uncluttered formulas are designed by cosmetic chemists who ensure each product is suited for diverse hair textures and conditions. We focus on the extreme quality standards professionals demand. 

Our striking pink design is award winning and we are still independent and privately owned; 12 Benefits™ leadership has decades of beauty care experience and a strong desire to delight our customers.
