SUDTANA’s combination of tradition and science was brought to life in an all-natural line of hair & skincare, enhanced for potency and purity, safety, and performance without any chemicals.
Our Ancient Herbal Remedies
Our Founder's late grandfather was a well-respected village doctor. His approach to herbal medicine was to use nature to treat natural ailments — which involves a process where he walks into the forest to gather the herbs for his remedies. His herbal remedies were respected by the lives he touched — especially his granddaughter, who has fond memories of using his remedies throughout her childhood.
Here are a couple of her favorites:
Our Scalp & Roots Revival Treatment
Contains three organic ingredients that have historically been used for medicinal purposes:
- Bergamot: valued for centuries and still used to this day as a folk remedy to treat dandruff and inflammation. At present, it is now known that bergamot possesses anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties.1-4
- Turmeric: a key ingredient all across Asia for culinary as well as medicinal purposes to treat swelling and infections. Turmeric contains antibacterial properties as well as curcumin, a powerful antioxidant that suppresses our body's inflammatory response triggered by oxidative stress (caused by: stress, ageing & the environment).5, 6
- Mint: used to cool, refresh and soothe aches and bacterial infections. We now know it contains antibacterial and anti-fungal properties as well as menthol, a vasoactive compound which promotes blood flow.7-10
Once harmonised together in one blend, these three ingredients gently re-balances the scalp environment back to health to make conditions optimal for hair growth. They detoxify the causes of hair fall (e.g. inflammation originating from microbes, pollution or irritants),11-12 cleanse residue that clogs hair roots and promotes blood flow to hair roots so they receive the nourishment they need to grow strong and healthy.
Our Nourishing Hair Mask
