Twisted or knotted updos, looped or woven braids, and always incorporating some type of ribbon or other hair bling, Fairy Tale Hair is another projected trend for 2024.  These ballet- inspired ethereal looks have an element of fantasy where creativity has no bounds, the sky is the limit.  Think upscale Whoville.

For a polished, sophisticated version, we recommending seeking out a professional hair crafting service such as with one of our expert Designers at Philip Pelusi.  But more simplistic Fairy Tale Hair looks can easily be achieved at home with a little creative initiative and the right products.  To create these looks, our go-to products are two Tela Beauty Organics grooms that also contain the powerhouse antioxidant Reishi Mushroom.

The Reishi Mushroom, also known as The Mushroom of Immortality, is an Adaptogenic Mushroom known as the most famous of all Asian medicinal mushrooms touted for its unprecedented therapeutic and topical benefits including immune strengthening, mental health support, improved sleep, and even an agent against cancer, just to name a few. 

As an adaptogen, it combines with other actives, using its moisturizing and antioxidant properties to reduce stress, both internally and from environmental factors such as pollution and sunlight.  Reishi Mushroom has world-renowned anti-oxidative benefits and is marketed today in the form of teas, tinctures, and supplements as well as being beneficial in topical products.

Through our research and development, we at Philip Pelusi saw the unmatched benefits this hero ingredient brings in terms of what it would do for the health appearance of the hair and scalp.  So, we harnessed the Reishi Mushroom’s incredible antioxidant powers to help take hair color protection to an unparalleled level as well as protecting the scalp.  And we threaded this immortal mushroom throughout the entire Tela Beauty Organics by Philip Pelusi product collection to glean its benefits with every product application. 

Our Tela Modern Hair Wear Collection provides a modern feel and approach to styling and wearing hair, almost melting into hair creating a new textile, or as we call it hair fabric.  Tela Play Freeform Wax is a thick crème formula that controls like a wax yet is totally moveable.  Tela Taffy Pomade Gel isa medium density pomade-like formula with light moveable hold.  Both can be applied to wet or dry hair for any type of braiding, sculpting, freeform piecing, grooming and finger styling.  And all with zero buildup.

Plus, it contains the proprietary Tela Tea Blend of White, Green and Oolong Tea and the Tela USDA Certified 35 Organic Ingredient Base Blend whose star ingredient is Reishi Mushroom.  So, with every application of these styling products, both the hair and scalp benefit as stated.

Lastly, all Tela Modern Hair Wear also contains our Tela Hair Immunity Complex of Probiotics and Fermented Kelp Extract to help improve scalp and hair condition.  Organic Quinoa and the Hydro Charged Pelusi Ceramide Complex help strengthen, create shine, increase body, and help preserve color.  Plus, Peppermint, Milk Thistle, Honey, Aloe, and Lavender add hydration and weightless heat protection.
