The science-backed styling cream created for people who want great hair without compromising scalp health

(EZ Newswire) -- OCHRE’s Everything Hair Cream has been named to Allure’s 2026 CLEAN Best of Beauty list, earning recognition in the clean category from Allure’s editors for its performance, innovation and approach to sensitive scalp care.

The $34 hair styling cream delivers multiple styling applications and benefits. It was formulated to support the scalp’s microbiome and is a solution for anyone with a sensitive or reactive scalp who wants a product that makes hair look and feel better without leaving the scalp irritated or weighed down.

Unlike traditional stylers formulated only around the hair fiber, OCHRE approaches haircare from the scalp out. The Everything Hair Cream combines lightweight styling performance with ingredients selected to support scalp health, making it a versatile everyday product for all hair types, including sensitive, reactive and flaky scalps.

For OCHRE co-founder and CEO Christopher Chung, his own experience with scalp sensitivity became the catalyst for creating the brand. "I was using hair products that would temporarily give me results, but my scalp would pay the price, so I started asking why I had to choose between having good hair and having a healthy-feeling scalp," said Chung. "That question was the driving force that led to the creation of OCHRE."

Designed to work across hair types and textures, Everything Hair Cream can be used as an everyday styling and treatment step to:

• Smooth frizz and flyaways
• Enhance natural definition
• Add lightweight hydration
• Improve manageability
• Create a polished finish without heaviness 

For salons and beauty professionals, the product offers a versatile retail recommendation for clients who want styling performance but are also concerned about scalp sensitivity and ingredient overload.

"Clients trust their stylists to help them choose products that work for both their hair and scalp," says Sri Reddy, OCHRE co-founder. "The Everything Hair Cream gives stylists a styling product that delivers on both performance and scalp health that they can feel good about recommending."

OCHRE’s line of hair products is fragrance-free, hypoallergenic, dermatologist-tested and noncomedogenic, as well as vegan and cruelty-free. At the center of the formula is OCHRE’s proprietary PAR Formula, a proprietary blend of plant esters, microalgae extract and rosebay extract selected for their prebiotic, antioxidant and bioactive properties. The result is a styling cream designed for people who may have spent years navigating the trade-off between products that perform and products their scalp can tolerate.
