What does this brand sell?
Bower is a B-Corp Certified Swedish company founded by professional haircare experts. The Swedish wood and lakes and the changing seasons inspired the idea of Björk. They have many different collections of products, each tailored towards specific needs: e.g. for damaged hair, perfume-free, or for curly hair.
On their website you will find details on the materials used for packaging and the ingredients that each product contains (and what each ingredient does). They encourage the recycling of their packaging through their partnership with Bower, which is an app that rewards you if you sort the packaging correctly. Their products are 100% vegan and cruelty-free.
