Everyone loves SheaMoisture and Nubian Heritage products. We appreciate the fact that so many of you want to buy them from us. And, we know you would like to know when we will have the many products that we are out of stock on back in stock. We wish we could tell you. And we apologize for the inconvenience this is causing you.

We have been dealing with supply issues with SheaMoisture and Nubian Heritage since late 2007. We have spoken with many people there numerous times and cannot get a good sense of if or when the supply issue will clear up. All of the items we are out of stock on are on order with SheaMoisture and Nubian Heritage and the moment they get a shipment to us, we will provide the items to you. When we know we will not have an item within a week or two, we will remove it from sale on the website.

Many of you have asked us to notify you when we have a particular item back in stock. This is something we really wish we could do. Unfortunately, we do not have a system in place to do this. We do have a blog article that keeps a running list of what we are out of stock on. And, we can provide you with alternative products to buy in the meantime, if you are interested.

The Treasured Locks H2G Hair Growth Supplement has been given a new coating. The basic formula remains the same. But, we changed to a new coating to give the product better shelf stability. The coating is a white Titanium Dioxide coating.

We’re sorry to have to report that the Nubian Heritage Raw Shea Butter Loc Butter Balm is out of stock.  We do not know when we will be able to get it again.  We will update the blog when we have it.

Overexposure to the elements, swimming, or just plain neglect can cause your skin to become scaly, dry, flaky or itchy. Your skin is made of multiple layers, each with its own purpose. The outermost layer can become covered with dead, dry cells that are essentially debris and are ready for removal. Bathing cleans away excess oil and dirt, but leaves the dead skin. An abrasive is needed to remove this layer. Exfoliants, including body scrubs, remove the dead skin allowing the supple, younger looking skin underneath to be seen and felt. Our Body Scrubs are designed to remove the surface layer while providing nourishment and moisturizers for the layers underneath. The scents soothe the mind with the benefits of aromatherapy while the scrubs replenish what the body needs. The Scrubs can be used once a week or several times a week.

Get ‘em while they last. Normally priced at $18.00, they’ve been reduced to $12.00 to move out quickly.  Click to buy

Kayshay Kids Sulfate Free Baby Shampoo is a premium, all natural, vegan shampoo that is mild enough to use on your precious infant or toddler. Our shampoo contains only natural and naturally derived ingredients. The cleansers (surfactants is the technical term) are mild enough for use on the gentlest skin. We invite you to compare our ingredient list to any baby shampoo on the market, at any price, from any manufacturer. This is our first in our kids’ product like “Kayshay Kids”.

Kayshay Kids Sulfate Free Baby Shampoo is a gentle foaming gel that is sulfate free and paraben free. Producing a sulfate free shampoo costs a little more (actually a lot more).

Our ultra-mild formula uses distillates (water-solutions) and essential oils derived from lavender and chamomile. Jojoba oil, rosehip oil, extracts from oats, and wheat protein make this shampoo soothing and great for your baby’s hair and skin.

Spectral RS is an advanced hair loss treatment that increases hair growth and prevents hair loss without the use of Minoxidil.

Spectral RS® works by addressing multiple causes that can lead to thinning hair such as perifollicular fibrosis and internal factors such as stress, hormonal disturbances, lack of vitamins and mineral salts, and the use of certain medications. Perifollicular fibrosis is a condition that accompanies all hair loss whereby the collagen around the hair root becomes rigid and tightens, pushing the root to the surface and causing premature hair loss. Other ingredients in Spectral RS® help improve the nutrition, circulation, and metabolism of the follicle.

In addition to the great ingredients in Spectral RS, it employs a technology that allows the ingredients to get to the place where they can do their work. Nanosomes are tiny organic micro-spheres that penetrate into the lowest levels of the skin and gradually release the ingredients over a 15 hour period. By releasing the ingredients deep within the skin and over a long period of time, they become maximally effective.

All ingredients are derived from highest purity organic sources and work synergistically to deliver maximum results in the treatment of thinning hair.

Spectral DNC® is the world’s most effective topical hair loss treatment.

• Clinically proven to work faster than Rogaine®
• Works on the entire scalp, including frontal baldness
• Grows normally strong & healthy hair
• Combines the finest, research grade ingredients, including Aminexil®

Spectral DNC offers new hope to those who suffer from baldness and hair loss. Spectral DNC® is a new medication that incorporates Aminexil® a new, breakthrough compound. Aminexil is the only other topically applied molecule aside from Minoxidil that is clinically proven to re-grow hair.

In addition to the powerful combination of ingredients, a major advantage of Spectral DNC® is that the active ingredients are encapsulated in nanosomes. Nanosomes are micro-spheres that are 200 times smaller than human cells and penetrate into the deepest layers of the skin and release the active ingredients gradually over a 15 hour period. This technology dramatically boosts the effectiveness of the active ingredients since they are absorbed much deeper into the skin. Spectral DNC® is faster and more effective then Rogaine®. Spectral DNC® works both on the vertex of the head and the frontal hair line. Spectral DNC® gives the best chance of growing normally thick and healthy hair and works on people who previously did not respond to Rogaine® treatment.

Key ingredients:

• Minoxidil 5% (meets EP and USP specifications)
• Procyanidin B-2 & C-1
• Adenosine
• Aminexil SP94
• Retinol
• Nanosomes
• Copper Peptides
• Vitamin & Mineral Complex
