Introducing the Hair Alchemy Collection
Alchemy al·che·my ( ˈal-kə-mē ), noun:
a power or process that changes or transforms something in an impressive or seemingly magical way.
Oribe reveals the antidote for fragile strands with the launch of its Hair Alchemy Collection. Designed for those with inherently weak hair, the collection includes the Hair Alchemy Resilience Shampoo and Conditioner, along with the Hair Alchemy Fortifying Treatment Serum – a new regimen formulated to prevent hair breakage and strengthen strands from the inside out. Used together, the Hair Alchemy Resilience Shampoo, Conditioner and Fortifying Treatment Serum produce nearly instant fortification: After five uses, the collection was clinically proven to make hair 2.9x more elastic and 133% stronger.*
Styling, processing, even brushing and friction from pillows can stretch and stress hair, weakening it over time. This loss of strength and elasticity can eventually lead to breakage. Therefore, preventative care — and a little magic — is necessary to keep hair strong and resilient.
“Prevention from breakage is important because unlike your skin, which can regenerate itself, hair breakage is irreversible,” says Michele Burgess, Executive Director of Product Development for Oribe Hair Care.
The Hair Alchemy Collection borrows from nature’s apothecary, blending ancient superfoods and phyto-technology to renew strands. The nourishing formulas contain our curative blend of chia seed (named for the Mayan word for strength), plant-based protein and bio-fermented bamboo leaf, along with a moisture-charged hyaluronic acid complex.
Together, these ingredients transform weak, brittle hair into strong, resilient, healthier-looking locks by improving tensile strength (the amount of stress and stretch that can be applied to hair before it breaks) and increasing elasticity while reducing hair fall caused by breakage, allowing hair to grow longer.
Hair Alchemy Resilience Shampoo
Strengthen fragile, weak hair with this protective and ultra-nourishing cleanser. Our curative blend of chia seed, bio-fermented bamboo leaf and plant-based protein penetrates the hair cortex to build strength from within while forming a scaffold around each hair fiber to reinforce strands. A floral blend of daisy and honeysuckle extracts helps to lengthen locks by strengthening hair from the root and fortifying brittle ends.
Apply to wet hair as the first step in your cleansing routine. Lather, indulge, rinse. For best results, follow with Hair Alchemy Resilience Conditioner to reveal hair’s supernatural strength.
- Gently cleanses hair without drying or stripping.
- Reinforces and strengthens fragile hair from the inside out.
- Prevents breakage and hair fall caused by brushing and styling, encouraging length over time.
- Improves the tensile strength and elasticity of each hair strand
Hair Alchemy Resilience Conditioner
Give hair a dose of strength, softness and vitality with this indulgently conditioning hair therapy. Our curative blend of chia seed, bio-fermented bamboo leaf and plant-based protein create a protective shield around strands to improve hair’s structural integrity and prevent breakage. A multi-action hyaluronic acid complex rehydrates from within to deliver a surge of moisture and improve elasticity. The result: smooth, strong, ultra-resilient hair.
After shampooing with Hair Alchemy Resilience Shampoo, massage, indulge (for at least one minute), rinse. Follow with our Hair Alchemy Fortifying Treatment Serum to further nourish strands post-shower.

This treatment elixir combines our curative blend of chia seed, bio-fermented bamboo leaf and plant-based protein plus phytoceramides and cotton seed extract to shield and fortify fragile strands.
