What is Phyto Shampoo?
Phyto shampoo is part of a complete line of hair care products. The brand name of the entire line is Phyto, and then a suffix is generally added to the word to indicate specific products. For example, Phytojoba® is a shampoo with jojoba oil added for its moisturizing properties. Phyto shampoo was developed by Patrick Alès in Paris in the 1960s. According to the company website, Alès worked on the hair of people such as Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis and Catherine Deneuve while developing hair care products made from various combinations of essential oils and plant extracts. Alès then opened his own salon in 1969, which is still in business today. The Phyto shampoo line includes shampoos specialized for many types of hair and specific hair issues. These include common categories such as dry hair, color-treated hair, anti-frizz, dandruff, and curly hair, among others. Less common shampoos are also included in the product line, such as those for anti-aging, hair loss, sun care, and “lifeless”
