Original

Most bottled shampoo is over 70 percent water. Everist sells a 100 ml cream instead, in a recycled aluminum tube. One inch of paste, rubbed with water, lathers on any hair type. Glycerin is more than 30 percent of the formula, and aloe vera is more than 15 percent.

Jessica Stevenson and Jayme Jenkins launched Everist Inc. in Toronto in 2021, and they make this concentrate there. Orange, peppermint, rosemary, bergamot and clary sage oils scent the paste. The brand does not name the countries those plants come from.

Herbal citrus is the scent. Colour-safe paste skips sulfates, silicones and synthetic fragrance. Wet the hair first, then let a metal key roll the tube down. Short first wash helps if other products have built up.

Everist's site calls the formula 3 times concentrated. Bluebird Climate measured 77 percent less carbon than shampoo in a plastic bottle.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Everist shampoo made in Canada?

Yes, in Toronto. The brand FAQ groups this concentrate with the deep conditioner, both body washes and the body oil. EverGuard and EverBoost, two newer oils, are made in California.

Who owns Everist?

Jessica Stevenson is CEO and Jayme Jenkins is chief brand officer of Everist Inc. A January 2021 release said the pair had 25 years in beauty between them.

How do you get the paste out?

A metal key ships in the box. Roll it down the tube until a 1 inch strip comes out, which is the medium-hair dose.

What is the bond-repair part?

The product page calls the technology patented and all-natural. Aspergillus ferment, panthenol and arginine are on the ingredient list.

Where do orders ship from?

Canadian orders ship from Ontario. US orders ship from Kentucky. That line is on the contact page, and it names the warehouse, not a second plant.

Who checked the carbon figure?

Bluebird Climate, a third party. The shampoo page also cites 62 percent less waste than a plastic bottle of shampoo.
