Locherber Milano Malabar Pepper - Aromatic Perfume Spicy and Woody
Nothing is left to chance: the glass of the hand-painted bottles and the labels made of jacquard fabric make our bottles unique and precious. An elegant and sophisticated collection, emblem of Italian style and quality in the world.
Our artisans are hidden artists who often explore and revive ancient techniques, such as sculpting clay by hand. This craft has ancient origins and draws on the Etruscan traditions of Tuscany. The stoppers are made one by one in the desired form by expert hands, which still have the power to enchant us today.
Our senses shape our emotions. A store, a hotel, an exhibition, a restaurant, a home, are perceived through touch, hearing and sight but our most immediate and strongest perception of a place is linked to our sense of smell. This is why our perfumes are the result of careful research on the part of Maîtres Parfumeur, who select the finest essential oils to produce a sensation of wellbeing. The aim of their research is to create a unique and exclusive style instantly recognisable as a product of excellence. This is the Locherber style.
Nothing is left to chance: the glass of the hand-painted bottles and the labels made of jacquard fabric make our bottles unique and precious. An elegant and sophisticated collection, emblem of Italian style and quality in the world.
We like to unearth and endorse the craftsmanship of veritable artists scattered in small towns and villages in Italy. When observing their work we are always amazed, recognising the enormous value of their “unique pieces”, the expression of an ancient knowledge made up of dedication, passion and sacrifice. This has led to the production of our hand-sculpted wooden stoppers. Each one is different, the result of painstaking and skilled work.
SPA Essence - Romantic fragrance, citrusy and spicy
Most ammonia-free hair color lines use a synthetic source of Ethanolamine – produced by the reaction of ethylene oxide with ammonia.
However, there’s a natural source of Ethanolamine derived from the fatty acids in coconut, called Cocomide MEA. The natural emollients present in this form of MEA makes this option much more desirable in hair.
Why don’t all hair color companies use Cocomide MEA?
The answer is simple: the extraction method is more costly than cooking up some synthetic MEA in a lab.
there’s another problem with using Ethanolamine and MEA in higher than necessary percentages… the removal process.
How do you remove Ethanolamine from the hair?
It has been postulated that this ingredient is hard to remove from hair. Companies still standing by ammoniated hair color have used this aspect of MEA as a way to denounce its effectiveness, but have failed to realize one enormous detail. The best ammonia-free hair color lines have added any kind of vegetable oil to safely remove any product left on the hair. However, some ammonia-free color lines haven’t caught on to this little trick – make sure to use brands that have!
Why is using an oil-based delivery system vital to ammonia-free hair color?
We’ve covered the primary role of ammonia, and it’s more desirable alternatives, but don’t forget – ammonia also has a secondary function. When mixed with peroxide, ammonia neutralizes the existing color pigment, allowing color to further penetrate the cuticle. Ethanolamine and MEA aren’t capable of doing this effectively. So, an ammonia-free hair color line must have a color delivery system that compensates for the lack of ammonia. The top-rated hair color lines have found an oil-based delivery system not only solves this problem, but that it actually works better than ammonia.
Fun Fact: Human hair is used as an eco-friendly method to clean up oil spills – that’s how much hair loves oil!
Hair absorbs oil before water, so using oil as a means of color molecule transport is not only effective, but optimal in any color line. When deciding which ammonia-free color line is best for you, be sure to dig deeper into these type of ingredients!
1. Hair color is based on how much melanin, or pigmentation, is in the hair. Two types of melanin create hair color: 1) eumelanin and 2) phaeomelanin. The more eumelanin a person has, the darker their hair will be. Phaeomelanin works in a similar way, except instead of causing hair to be blacker, it causes hair to be more red. Low levels of both eumelanin and phaeomelanin characterize blonde hair
2. The Melanesians of New Guinea are the only dark-skinned group of humans known to have a high blonde hair rate.
3. In Ancient Rome, women tried to dye their hair blonde with pigeon dung. In Renaissance Venice, they used horse urine.
4. Marilyn Monroe, who was not a natural blonde, refused to allow other blonde actresses on the film set with her. Her natural hair color was brown.
5. Princess Diana spent almost 4,000£ ($6,284.80) a year to have her hair bleached.
6. Northern Europe has the most blondes. However, even most natural blonde babies lose their blonde hair once puberty sets in. Additionally, women find that after their first pregnancy, their hair and skin darken permanently.
