The Repair Wrap
The twenty minutes after the shower, done differently.
- 82% cotton, 18% polyamide. A split dual-fibre structure that draws water in by capillary action rather than dragging it out by friction.
- Wrap and wait. Ten to twenty minutes replaces the rough towel rub that does the damage.
- Holds without pulling. A fastening that stays put without tension at the roots.
- One size, three colourways. Matched to the rest of the practice.
Complete the practice
The detail
The gentler way to leave the shower.
The Repair Wrap is designed to gently contain wet hair without the weight and friction of a traditional towel. Lightweight, absorbent and easy to wear, it helps move hair from wash to dry with less pulling, twisting and disruption.
How to use
Squeeze the water out. Do not wring. That is where the breakage starts.
Wrap, twist and loop the tail through the fastening.
Wait ten to twenty minutes, unwrap, then comb from the ends up.
Do not hang up by the elastic, it will stretch with the weight of the hair wrap and could become misshapen.

Materials and care
Warm machine wash with like fabrics.
No fabric softener. It coats the split fibres and destroys the absorbency. This matters more here than on anything else we make.
Wash away from cotton towelling, which sheds lint the fibre catches. Tumble low or hang. No high heat.

Wet hair is at its most vulnerable. Those first twenty minutes add up.
the feel
LIGHT ENOUGH TO FORGET YOU'RE WEARING IT.
Secure enough to stay in place while wet hair dries inside it. After fifteen minutes hair is noticeably lighter, without the pulling, twisting or roughness of a bath towel.
the proof
GENTLER ON HAIR OVER TIME.
The difference comes from what you stop doing, and what you repeat instead: a small change on every wash day that becomes a better practice over a season.
The Recovery Practice
Water is drawn in by capillary action, not rubbed out.
The sequence
How to use
The fibre is split into filaments many times finer than cotton, which multiplies surface area without adding the loops that catch on a wet cuticle.

The evidence
The things that matter.
Hair is weak when wet. Traditional towels pull and tear at the hair, causing more breakage.
Unlike standard towels, you can wear your repair wrap as soon as you hop out of the shower and get on with things. The secure elastic keeps your hair feeling held; not falling out constantly.
Minutes it is designed to be worn for. Long enough to lift the water, short enough not to sit in damp hair.
A few things worth knowing
From choosing your wrap to your first wash.
How is this different from the bath towel I use now?
A bath towel dries hair by rubbing, and rubbing is what roughs up a wet cuticle. This is a finer split fibre that pulls water in by capillary action while the hair sits still inside it. You wrap it and leave it alone.
How long do I leave it on?
Ten to twenty minutes. Long enough to lift most of the water, short enough that you are not sitting in damp hair for an hour.
Does it stay on?
Twist the length, loop the tail through the fastening, and it holds without tension at the roots. It is meant to stay put while you do something else.
What is it made of?
82% OEKO-TEX cotton, 18% polyamide. Cotton-led for softness against wet hair, with polyamide for strength and absorbency.
