Sometimes the concept of mixing products can be daunting, as it can be difficult knowing where to begin.
Electric has a thought-out product range, designed to integrate well with one-another. They have been expertly formulated by leading chemists and Mark Woolley, the Electric Founder & Creative Director.
We’ve made it our mission to produce products that perform to the needs of elite professionals using ingredients and raw materials sourced by ourselves in the UK.
Here are a few examples of hair cocktails using our range:
Cocktail 1: Creating a Balm
ºC-1 ENGLISH ROSE SERUM: Silicone free, natural rose oil. Absorbs into the hair, creating maximum shine without feeling oily or greasy.
ºC-4 SHAPING PASTE: Creates a defined look with a silk finish which leaves no build up and doesn't coat the hair.
You can add a minimal amount of each product or, more of one product depending on the look you are going for. It gives the Shaping Paste the natural oil to become more of a balm, which is great for hair styles such as: sleek ponytail, sleek bun. It can cater to all hair types, allowing for a silky balm to be applied over the hair for a natural shine and for creating impressive hairstyles.
Cocktail 2: Natural Looking Volume
ºC-5 VOLUME LIQUID MIST: Penetrates the hair to naturally swell the cortex to twice its normal thickness. This results in thicker hair at the roots, without coating the hair.
P*-4 PREPARATION SPRAY: Evens out porosity, reduces static and detangles even the driest hair.
Add more movement to your volumized hair by adding a detangler to your routine. Put a few sprays of our Preparation Spray onto your hair before applying some of our Volume Liquid Mist onto the roots of our hair.
Cocktail 3: Beachy Waves
P*-4 PREPARATION SPRAY: Acts as a leave-in strengthening and conditioning spray, and as a reconstructor and cutting lotion.
ºC-4 SHAPING PASTE: Creates a defined look with a silk finish which leaves no build up and doesn't coat the hair.
To create the perfect beachy waves for thick hair, opt for a leave-in-conditioner, such as our Preparation Spray which will add more texture to your hair, then our Shaping Paste to balance out the texture.
Place a pea-sized amount of both products onto your hands and rub them together and run through your hair.
Finally try not to be too generous when measuring out the hair products, as it can encourage product build-up. To avoid greasy hair, start at the ends of your hair as they are the driest and will need the most nourishing, before adding anything onto your scalp directly.
]]>Sustainability is vital to us. We believe strongly that every product line should both work to the highest standard, and also have the lowest carbon footprint possible. We have made some pretty exciting changes to the way we manufacture, package and formulate the products to ensure this.
Our packaging is 100% recyclable, including all the lids and bottle tops. Our raw materials are sourced in the United Kingdom. Not only does this mean we can trace back and vouch for every ingredient, but it also enables us to hugely cut down on air pollution.
Now more than ever, it is vital that we have a second thought on our daily habits and try to be eco-conscious and sustainable when caring for our hair.
Here are some easy-to-do tips and tricks for making your routine sustainable.
Tip 1: Have colder showers.
Yes, we know they are not fun. However, the energy used contributes less CO2 emissions compared to hot showers. While the thought of stepping into a cold shower may be daunting, once you are in, you willl be glad you gave it a go. We promise.
Tip 2: Run the water only when rinsing.
When applying and massaging in products, turn the tap off. No need for the water to still be running. In addition, opt for our Preparation Spray, which is a reconstructor, cutting lotion, and leave-in conditioner that does not require rinsing and further water usage.
Tip 3: Use products that do not require using a hairdryer
Opt for the below products that can be used in multi-functioning ways, reducing the need to use a hairdryer.
- Volume Liquid Spray: it infuses fine hair with volume and brilliant shine.
- English Rose Serum: it leaves an ultimate shine without coating the hair for a photo-ready finish, repairs hair, reduces split ends, and protects from UVB rays, and is made with natural English rose extract instead of oil-based silicones.
- Cloudburst Mousse: it creates a defining hold to short or long hairstyles and evaporates to leave no stickiness or residue.
Tip 4: Air Dry
Linking to tip 3, allowing the hair to naturally air-dry, to reduce energy consumption.
Our talented Electric team, strive to coherently follow Electric's strong ethics on sustainability. Electric deliberately has a carefully selected range of products that allows for hair cocktails, combining our products can create strong, shiny and well-preserved looks, for all hair types, reducing the use of heated tools such as heated rollers or straighteners.
