The Science Of Stronger Hair: Botanical Bio-Actives & Free Radical Protection

Healthy, Strong Hair Starts at the Root

Healthy, strong hair begins with a foundation – your shampooing and conditioning routine. While many focus on styling or surface treatments, the truth is that real hair success starts at the scalp and roots. UR Capill-Hair BOOST Shampoo & Conditioner duo has been developed to energise follicles, strengthen strands, and support thicker, healthier hair.

Tip: Always focus on the scalp when shampooing to energise follicles.

Why Hair Strength Starts with the Right Routine

Hair struggles for many reasons: environmental stress, heat styling, chemical treatments, or genetics. Weak follicles and brittle strands can lead to thinning, breakage, or slowed regrowth.

The right shampoo and conditioner do more than clean and soften hair:

  • Support scalp health for optimal follicle function
  • Strengthen strands from root to tip
  • Provide essential nutrients to maintain thickness and elasticity

Evolution from Previous Formulas

URBAN RETREAT has always prioritised plant-powered and nourishing ingredients. Earlier formulas, including Isoflavone Shampoo, introduced plant compounds that protected and nourished hair. These formulas were effective and loved, but through research and innovation, we have developed UR Capill-Hair BOOST Shampoo & Conditioner to deliver even stronger results.

BOOST Duo combines modern science with proven plant-derived actives.

The BOOST duo combines:

  • Caffeine & Niacinamide (Vitamin B3) to stimulate scalp circulation and support follicle health
  • Hydrolyzed Keratin & Collagen to reinforce hair structure and improve strength
  • Botanical Bio-Actives like Aloe Vera, Nettle, and Peppermint Oil, which nourish the scalp and act as free radical fighters, protecting hair from oxidative stress

  • Nettle, Aloe Vera, and Peppermint Oil act as free radical fighters, protecting hair and scalp from oxidative stress caused by environmental and styling factors
  • These ingredients synergise with caffeine, niacinamide, and keratin, creating an ideal environment for follicles to function, hair to strengthen, and strands to thicken
