Phyto – About the Brand

In 1969, Patrick Ales took his experience as being one of Paris' legendary hairstylists to create Phyto, the first brand ever to use plants in their haircare. Creating a line of hair care that's 95% natural with the highest concentration of plant extracts available on the market.

Whilst Ales was practicing hairdressing, he noticed that chemicals were often used when treating women's hair and this often resulted in the hairdressers hands becoming damaged and sore. Believing that we should 'live and work in tune with, rather than against, nature' Phyto was born, using herbal and botanical ingredients for hair care treatments that really work.

If you need any more evidence on the professional status that Patrick Ales has created, prior to  the creation of Phyto, Ales actually invented and patented the modern day blow-dry technique. Creating loose new hairstyles for the likes of Catherine Deneuve, Brigitte Bardot and even Jacqueline Kennedy.

Major fan of scented candles, Make Up brushes and Highlighter. I’m always on the hunt for those Holy Grail products and my dressing table is covered in more beauty products than I like to admit. As an adopted Northerner originally from Brighton, I spend most my days wondering what all this rain is about. My hair isn’t grateful for the move. Currently loving: NIOD Photography Fluid
