As scientists and green cosmetic experts, we know that the conservative tradition of using synthetic, harsh, allergen, hormone-disturbing and cancerogenic chemicals in cosmetics is outdated and no longer justifiable. Today's sustainable green biotech creates super-efficient natural actives without side effects. This called us to challenge the cosmetic industry by turning thousands of years of anecdotal evidence into scientifically proofed, potent, cosmeceutical care, blurring the line between cosmetics and medicine by addressing the root of the problem – not temporarily masking the symptoms.

The right to cosmetic health might sound obvious, but it's not: The EU banned 2482 chemicals from use in cosmetics, while the US has only banned 11. The most harmful and toxic chemicals are still found in products aimed at women and children with dark skin and textured hair, and breast cancer is overrepresented among black US hairdressers

To guarantee purity, sustainability, personal and environmental safety of our own products, Dakmatter is by the highest levels possible COSMOS ORGANIC and COSMOS NATURAL certified by Ecocert Greenlife according to COSMOS Standard.

To be a pioneer, challenging existing norms and behaviour is extremely hard work, but also very satisfying. Our greatest reward has been to hear from customers getting results they could never have dreamed of regarding their hair, scalp health and self-worth. It keeps us motivated and drives us to become even more challenging, more innovative, to keep on getting the facts straight – not our hair.
