The EBAN Story
The EBAN Collection was created as an act of love by a mom for her daughter. Daily exercise and exposure to chlorine led to hair and skin issues that discouraged her daughter from participating in sports. EBAN natural products are explicitly formulated to protect the health and dreams of Black girls and women by protecting their hair and skin from damage resulting from exposure to sun, salt, sweat and chlorine.
The Ghanaian Adinkra symbol Eban represents the protection and love provided by a fence around the home. EBAN products create a fence of protection around natural hair and skin, keeping it healthy and strong.
Our Promise: EBAN is a premium collection born in the lab and perfected in the pool. We don’t just make products; we engineer solutions for the Active Naturalista. Every bottle is made with love and earth-derived minerals to support your loud, unapologetic life.
Soak, Coat, Cover™ Method
The Ritual
The EBAN Soak • Coat • Cover method:
1. SOAK: Fully saturate your natural hair with clean shower water before entering the water. A wet sponge can’t absorb the chemical water.
2. COAT: Section your hair and generously apply your defensive barrier EBAN Shield Pre-Swim Treatment from roots to ends to lock the good water in and keep pool elements out.
3. COVER: Slip on an EBAN Lycra Cap under your protective outer silicone cap to shield your hairline from intense gear friction
• After your swim, purify with EBAN Cleanse Clarifying Shampoo to remove surface minerals.
• And then restore elasticity with EBAN Infuse Deep Conditioner.
The Science
Why it Works: Hair is porous. By saturating your curls with Nettle-infused lipids before you dive, you leave no room for chlorine to enter. Nettle Leaf Oil provides the mineral “bricks and mortar” (Silica/Sulfur) that anchor your hair’s protein, preventing the brittleness caused by chemical exposure.
“Engineered for pool swimmers and weekend beach-goers with natural hair.“
Ingredients
100% Natural. No Sulfates. No Parabens. No Compromise.
FAQs
Q: Clarifying shampoos usually dry out my 4C hair. Will EBAN Cleanse do the same?
A: Never, family! Mainstream clarifiers use harsh sulfates (like SLS) that act like industrial detergents, stripping your hair’s natural oils. EBAN Cleanse uses a gentle, plant-based soap base combined with raw oils to lift pool elements while leaving your natural lipid layer completely intact.
Q: Can I use this shampoo even if I haven’t been swimming in a pool?
A: Absolutely. While formulated to aggressively target chlorine, its Apple Cider Vinegar and Pink Himalayan Salt base make it an incredible periodic reset shampoo to clear away heavy post-workout sweat residue and styling product buildup.
Q: Does this shampoo get rid of the green tint that chlorine gives lighter hair textures?
A: Yes, Sis. That green tint is actually copper minerals from the pool oxidizing and bonding to your hair proteins. EBAN Cleanse breaks that chemical bond naturally, clearing the tint and restoring your crown’s natural, true luster.
