Elevation Styling Paste

Shape, refine, experiment with, and - we can't resist - elevate your style with Elevation Styling Paste.

Lighter than a wax but stronger than a cream, this adaptable hair styling paste provides texture with medium hold for maximum styling versatility and lasting shape.

Plus, its matte finish leaves hair feeling silky smooth without any tackiness or stickiness, thanks to lightweight emollients that also resist frizz and protect hair from damage.

Ideal for short styles and thicker hair types to highlight layers and add definition and separation, Elevation will take your styling game to the next level.

What Elevation Styling Paste has:

• Panthenol: This nourishing humectant weightlessly coats the hair surface, sealing in moisture to improve tensile strength and enhance gloss and shine.
  
• Castor Oil: Rich in fatty acids but extremely low on the comedogenic scale, castor oil is a great protective yet non-occlusive moisturizer for both hair and scalp, especially for a leave-in hair product.

What Elevation Styling Paste doesn't have:

• Sulfates: Sulfates can be harsh on hair, stripping natural oils and causing color to fade. Even our styling products are sulfate-free formula so you don't have to sacrifice healthy hair for great style.
  
• Isopropyl Alcohol: Typically used as a solvent, this short-chain alcohol dries quickly and can in turn dehydrate hair. Our professional hair care and styling formulas opt for hair-healthy fatty alcohols, which allow ingredients to penetrate the follicle without decreasing moisture content.
  
• Animal-tested or Animal-derived Ingredients: Elevation Styling Paste is a vegan and cruelty-free formula. Virgo de Novo Professional Hair Care only uses ethically-sourced ingredients and never those that are tested on animals.
