HNY Haircare – Frequently Asked Questions
Is HNY Haircare suitable for hair extensions?
Yes. All HNY Haircare products were specifically formulated with hair extensions in mind. The formulas cleanse effectively without stripping, do not rely on heavy silicone coatings, and help maintain the integrity and longevity of extensions.
Is HNY Haircare suitable for natural hair?
Absolutely. HNY Haircare is suitable for natural, coloured, chemically treated and damaged hair, as well as hair extensions. The formulas focus on balance, strength and long-term hair health.
Will the products weigh my hair down?
No. The range is designed to leave hair lightweight, voluminous and fresh, not greasy or coated. This is especially important for fine hair and extension wearers.
Does HNY Haircare contain proteins?
Yes. The range includes silk proteins, silk amino acids, keratin, collagen and oat protein, carefully balanced to support strength and elasticity without causing stiffness or protein overload.
Is HNY Haircare colour-safe?
Yes. The gentle, non-stripping formulas are safe for colour-treated hair and help maintain colour vibrancy.
Is HNY Haircare suitable for daily use?
Yes. The formulas are gentle enough for regular or daily use, depending on your hair type and lifestyle.
Is HNY Haircare tested and compliant?
Yes. All HNY Haircare products have completed UK Cosmetic Product Safety Reports (CPSR) and are compliant with UK cosmetic regulations.
Can I use the leave-in conditioning spray on dry hair?
Yes. The leave-in conditioning spray can be used on damp or dry hair. On damp hair it helps with detangling and hydration, and when blow-dried in it can feel even softer as the heat helps activate the conditioning ingredients.
Will HNY Haircare make oily hair greasier?
No. The shampoo cleanses effectively while respecting the scalp barrier, helping to reduce rebound oiliness over time. For oily hair types, we recommend shampooing twice and keeping conditioner away from the roots.
Is HNY Haircare sulphate-free?
Yes. All HNY Haircare products are sulphate-free and use a blend of gentle, non-stripping cleansers to clean the hair and scalp without causing dryness or irritation.
Why doesn’t the conditioner absorb instantly?
Because the shampoo does not strip the hair. When hair is balanced and healthy, conditioner works evenly rather than disappearing immediately. This results in softer, smoother hair without overload or build-up.
Does HNY Haircare contain silicones?
No. HNY Haircare is silicone-free. We use conditioning agents, proteins and lightweight emollients instead of heavy silicone coatings, helping hair stay soft, light and free from build-up.
Where is HNY Haircare made?
HNY Haircare is formulated and tested in the UK and is a Scotland-based brand.
Is HNY Haircare vegan and cruelty-free?
HNY Haircare is cruelty-free. Some products contain silk-derived ingredients; please refer to individual product descriptions for suitability if you follow a strict vegan lifestyle.
