In the world of hair care, scientific discovery and innovation are constantly leading us to groundbreaking ingredients. One revolutionary ingredient is Apple Stem Cell Extract, a Patented ingredient derived from a rare species of apple called Uttwiler Spätlauber. These apples are known for their exceptional longevity; they can stay fresh for several months, unrefrigerated, without shriveling or decaying. That’s unheard of! Intrigued scientists began studying them and found that much of their power lies in their stem cells, which have the ability to regenerate and repair damaged tissues. This is why Apple Stem Cell Extract is becoming one of the most sought-after ingredients in the skin and hair industry.

Apple Stem Cell Extract is rich in epigenetic factors and metabolites, which play a vital role in protecting and rejuvenating plant cells and have numerous benefits in hair care products.
Benefits of Apple Stem Cell Extract for Your Hair:
- Promotes Hair Growth: Apple Stem Cell Extract has been shown to stimulate hair follicles, promoting the growth of stronger, healthier hair. It can extend the anagen phase (the growth phase) of our hair so that our hair is in its growing phase for longer. And, it helps prolong the lifespan of hair follicles, which can reduce hair loss over time.
- Strengthens Hair: By protecting and strengthening the hair follicles, this extract helps combat breakage and split ends (hello, length retention). You’ll notice smoother, more resilient strands.
- Revitalizes Aging Hair & Anti-Aging: Just as it extends the life of apple cells, Apple Stem Cell Extract also extends the lifespan of hair follicles and rejuvenates aging hair cells. When hair follicles decay, they stop producing pigment which is why our hair becomes grey, and our hair becomes less lustrous, shiny, and healthy. Apple Stem Cell Extract helps prevent and delay the decline in hair health and appearance associated with aging.
- Protection Against Environmental Damage: The extract’s antioxidant properties protect your hair from the harmful effects of UV radiation and environmental pollutants. It acts as a shield, preserving the natural beauty of your locs. Environmental damage can age our hair and scalp just like it can age our skin, and Apple Stem Cell Extract offers protection against this.
- Soothing and Hydrating: Anti-inflammatory properties soothe an irritated scalp and hydrating properties help prevent dryness, which is essential for healthy-looking and feeling hair.
