Owayans are meant to represent a way of being, a philosophy of life. Our goal is to promote a healthy and positive lifestyle: an Organic Way of Life. To be Owayans means inspiration, an everyday concept that meets the themes revolving around our circle of good habits and values: biodynamic and organic culture, fair trade, ecology and consideration of the planet, clean chemistry, fashion and design, holistic beauty, health and proper well-being.
FAIR TRADE
We have set up alliances with international fair-trade purchase networks to support the development of poor countries in the world with our products.
BIODYNAMIC INGREDIENTS
From medicinal plants and herbs grown on our biodynamic estate Ortofficina, derive precious essential oils, which become our 100% natural active ingredients and fragrances.
GREEN CHEMISTRY
The evolution of Green Chemistry shows that it is possible to obtain products that give excellent results which are produced without the use of harsh and toxic chemicals.
SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT
We use Organic Way products, the first professional company in the industry to choose glass for all its bottles and jars.
Our Vision
We believe that using healthier, natural, biodynamic ingredients without chemical treatments, is healthier for our bodies and increases the quality and well-being of our lives.
The developments of Green Chemistry demonstrate that it is possible to obtain excellent products without using aggressive and toxic chemical substances, preferring naturally derived ingredients that improve the hair structure from one treatment to the next.
Pure oils, waxes, butters and vegetable emollients are the key to the effectiveness of all our services. It is our mission to support global development through international networks of fair trade purchases.
Services
To promote inclusivity, we created a gender neutral pricing structure. The cost of a haircut shouldn’t depend on whether you’re female or male, it should depend on the Length, texture, and style of your hair. So if you’re after a short back and sides, or your hair falls far below your waist, the cost of your cut will depend on the cut and only the cut. Equality is key.
