What's The Buzz?
Hairdressers love Paul Mitchell® the color for the rich, creamy consistency that stays moist and leaves the hair feeling smooth and healthy. What's the secret? Beeswax! This sustainably sourced, natural resource is the hero ingredient in our original hair colour line.
Our beeswax is sourced in West Africa, where bees pollinate plants year-round, so they don't have to store honey for hibernation season. Pollinating all year contributes to the area's biodiversity and help uphold their ecosystems.
