Frequently Asked Questions
How can Stem be more effective than traditional shampoo and conditioner while being natural?
We've spent several years perfecting a formula that balances gentle cleansing with deep hydration, all while maintaining your hair's natural equilibrium. Traditional hair care products often strip your hair of its natural oils using harsh chemicals and then overcompensate by adding heavy synthetic conditioners. This cycle can lead to overproduction of oils, making your hair dependent on frequent washing and conditioning. Stem's minimalist, natural approach gently cleanses without overstripping and nourishes your hair with essential nutrients, resulting in healthier, more manageable hair.
Do I need a conditioner too?
No, we recommend skipping the conditioner. Stem is designed to maintain your hair’s ideal moisture balance without needing extra products.
Why This Works:
Overcompensation: Traditional conditioners can train your hair and scalp to rely on additional oils, potentially leading to greasy roots or dryness in the long run.
Built-In Hydration: If you need a moisture boost, simply leave Stem in your hair for an extra minute or two before rinsing—this gives the nourishing ingredients more time to absorb.
What are the caps and bases of Stem made from?
Our caps and bases are crafted from a proprietary material made from spruce wood combined with other natural saps. This innovative blend creates a strong, durable, and completely biodegradable system for Stem, aligning with our commitment to sustainability.
Where do you source your ingredients?
We source our ingredients from a network of U.S.-based partners who provide ethically and sustainably sourced materials. The majority of our ingredients are grown in the United States and South America, ensuring high quality while reducing our environmental footprint.
