Free-From Kids Haircare

Niles + Chaz Supports Mixed Textured Hair with Clean, Nourishing Formulas

Niles + Chaz is a vegan, organic, cruelty-free, nut-free, and veggie- and fruit-packed haircare line for children of mixed heritage. The brand is introducing itself to the world with four SKUs and nourishing formulas fueled by more than 90% naturally derived ingredients.

The brand's debut products include a curl detangler and enhancer, styling gel cream, a curl-reviving spray and a pre-shampoo treatment to support the scalp. All of these clean haircare products aim to empower young girls and boys to embrace their unique curls and care for them beautifully with wholesome ingredients like flaxseed oil, marshmallow extract and okra.

Founded by parents Mike Colter and his wife Iva—a former major Hollywood studio senior executive—Niles + Chaz gets its name from their daughters, who are also co-founders and active participants in the brand.
