Let’s start off with one of our personal favorites and top-seller: AG Haircare. Founded in 1989 (right here in Vancouver may we add), married couple John and Lotte Davis use formulations with the finest natural ingredients to deliver the best quality hair products within the salon industry. They pride themselves with their formulations which is why they leave out certain ingredients like salt, paba, parabens and DEA. AG is also one of our personal favorites because they give back to the community. They are active in supporting national charities across Canada and the US. And also support local charities in Vancouver!
What we recommend trying from AG, especially now that summer has arrived, is the Conditioning Mist Detangling Spray. It detangles hair without build-up or residue and instantly adds moisture, shine and bounce! It’s especially perfect for the summer time as it protects your hair from UV rays! This beauty can be used on dry or damp hair.

Next up is a brand everyone has been raving about for the past year… Design.Me Hair! This totally vegan line (that is also free of sulphates, parabens and gluten) started off with four friends in Montreal who decided to start their own company. Design.Me Hair has created a brand for both clients and stylists to have complete freedom and creativity of their products. We currently carry only two products from them… but rest assured they are one of our top sellers!
Our favorite product from the line is the Puff.Me Volumizing Spray. This little guy is magic in a bottle; you can trust us when we say that! It provides instant volume that is odor and mess-free. Plus, it is the perfect texturizer for braids and updos (seriously a game-changer). What more can you ask from a powder spray?!
Ethical Price: $17.95
Now we get into our hot styling tools! The first one we’ll get into is Aria Beauty. A brand of hot tools with specialized negative ion and far-infrared heat technology that leaves your hair damage free. From blow-dryers to flat irons to curling irons… you can’t beat the quality and price of Aria Beauty. Plus, who would say no to cute packaging? I know I wouldn’t; can you say Insta-worthy!
Speaking of cute packaging, we would definitely recommend going for the Unicorn Super Glam Hair Styling Set. It’s basically everything you need all in one little box. This kit includes:
- 100% ceramic hair straightener with floating plates that allows you to curl or flat iron your hair without tugging or pulling
- Paddle brush
- Tail comb
- 2 jaw clips
- The trendiest ponytail cuff!
This kit brings the salon to you and we love it! Also, it’s limited quantities so pick up one today while supplies last - they won’t be around for long!

Last but definitely not least, Bombay Hair! Known for their extensions and amazing styling tools, Bombay started their success in December of 2012. Wanting to create a line for women that provides high quality products at affordable prices, they’ve definitely gone above and beyond with their promise. Here at zennkai, we carry a few of their most popular styling tools.
If we had to choose one out of the bunch, we would go for the Bombay 5 in 1 Curling Wand. This is for the ladies who love their options (there’s no such thing as too many options)! At a super affordable price you get multiple interchangeable clip free tourmaline barrels that all feature a cool tip. Five different barrels to create five different curl looks… you can’t go wrong with that. That is why we love Bombay so much!
