Our Story

Born from the struggle of textured hair care, we set out to create products that actually work—simple, natural, and made with love for every curl and coil.

From Desperation to Discovery

I never imagined losing my edges. But... four months after having my baby girl, I woke up one morning, looked in the mirror — and they were gone.

For weeks my hair had been breaking. I would see handfuls come out with every wash or comb, but that morning it became undeniable. I felt devastated.

BEFORE

My textured 4C hair was drying out, breaking off, and refusing to thrive

It wasn’t just postpartum hair loss. I was also living in a dry climate, and the tap water where we lived was hard, full of minerals that stripped my hair even more.

The Turning Point

Instead of giving up, I went back to what I knew: the kitchen.

I started mixing natural, edible, plant-based ingredients I had trusted before. Things that kept moisture locked in. Out of that moment, the very first bottle of Adovz Moisturizing Spray was born.

AFTER

I would spray it before applying my homemade butter, and within weeks, I saw my edges slowly come back.

My hair started growing out softer, easier to comb through, and my curls more defined — like baby hair.

Backed by Science, Rooted in Nature

When we realized we're onto something, we met with a Black, natural hair chemist — who studied Black hair. She helped refine the formula: what to add, what to remove, how to get the moisture retention just right.

Then we sent samples to the lab for months of testing. That step changed everything. The formula wasn’t just homemade anymore — it was carefully crafted, rooted in science, but still 100% natural and food-grade.

Real MVPs of Adovz

Ingredients with proven benefits. Every ingredient has a purpose and your hair will feel the difference.

Pumpkin Seed Oil

Clinical studies show it increases hair count and thickness by up to 40%. Rich in zinc and fatty acids that support follicle health.

Flaxseed

Creates natural mucilage for detangling slip. Delivers omega-3 fatty acids that strengthen hair and help retain moisture.

Shea Butter

Unrefined shea contains vitamins A and E. Seals the hair cuticle to prevent moisture loss and protect from damage.

Aloe Vera

Contains proteolytic enzymes that repair dead skin cells on the scalp and promote healthy follicle function.

Biotin (Vitamin B7)

Essential B-vitamin that supports keratin production. Hair is made of keratin—without biotin, growth slows and hair weakens.

Growth That Spreads

Friends and family started noticing the difference in my hair. Every visit ended the same way: “Can I try it?”

We shipped out samples. They came back asking for more. Their hair was thriving. Their edges were coming back. Their curls were hydrated again.

That’s when I knew this wasn’t just my story — it was becoming a community's story.
