Why is Noughty 97% natural?
Our promise to you, your hair, and the planet. At Noughty, formulating to 97:3 is a conscious choice which enables us to prioritise natural performance as well as hygiene and safety. A minimum of 97% natural formulations means the remaining 3% synthetic is used for our preservative system, to stop the product from going off after opening, emulsifying agents to stop ingredients from separating and some lovely fragrances to leave your hair smelling delicious.
WE FORMULATE WITHOUT parabens, silicones, primary petrochemicals and sulphates.
Why? Because wherever possible, we choose to reduce our toxic load and instead use natural alternatives. Simple.

I'm new to natural hair care and my hair feels dry, tangled, matted, sticky or heavy after using Noughty for the first time. Am I doing something wrong?
When transitioning to natural or silicone-free haircare, hair may need a little time to detox. Conventional ingredients leave residues that can coat the hair. This build up can weigh the hair down and leave it dull over time.
Therefore, it can take a few washes to remove this product build up. During this transition, hair can feel worse before it feels better. Hair can feel dry, tangled, matted, sticky or heavy, as detoxing asks the hair to let go of all the residual materials it’s been holding onto. Should you persevere for at least 8 washes, you hair should start to benefit from all of our amazing natural ingredients and the natural balance of oils will be restored. Alternatively, you may be using a product that’s not quite suited to you, so it's worth taking our new hair quiz to discover your personalised haircare regime or emailing the team at hello@lovenoughty.com for further advice.

Why does the Hero Body Yoghurt take longer to sink in than my normal body lotion/moisturiser?
The HBY is enriched with hyaluronic acid, a humectant your body produces naturally to keep your tissues hydrated. It forms a slight film over the surface of your skin, which works to enhance and support the skin’s natural barrier system. Hyaluronic acid is perfect for dehydrated skin because it grabs moisture from the environment and traps it where it’s needed most so although this film may take slightly longer to sink in, the reward is more supple, smoother, hydrated, healthy-looking skin.
Applying HBY in thin layers, allowing time between layers, will maximise results.
Why doesn’t The Hero Cream Body Wash foam like my normal body wash?
HCBW is formulated with a low level of surfactant and plenty of plant oils; the right recipe to form gently cleansing micelles that lift excess oil, sweat and grime from the skin and rinse it away. No bubbles needed. The benefit? Your skin is cleansed without stripping it of moisture.
