DIRECTIONS
Use the shampoo first, applying a dime‑sized amount to thoroughly wet hair and massaging it into the scalp. Rinse and repeat, waiting about 10 seconds before rinsing the second time. Follow with conditioner, leaving it on for two minutes before rinsing. For optimal results, wring hair well with a towel before applying conditioner.

THE BRAND
Founded by New York hairstylist Takamichi Saeki, the Takamichi line was born out of twenty years of hands‑on experience in the salon. Saeki wanted to cut through cluttered hair‑care routines and offer well‑crafted essentials that deliver results and simplify daily rituals. Each product features thoughtfully sourced ingredients—camellia oil from Ōshima Island, wildcrafted plant extracts captured through ultrasound extraction, plant‑based waxes and cotton wicks—and embodies a fresh, green signature scent reminiscent of the Nine Orchard Hotel. The range is cruelty‑free, made in Italy, France or the USA, and packaged in recyclable materials, reflecting a commitment to both luxury and sustainability.
