If you’ve spent more than five minutes on Beauty TikTok in the last few weeks, you’ve definitely seen them: the colorful, aesthetically pleasing bottles, the “hair oiling” routines, and the dramatic transformations of dull, fine hair into shiny Rapunzel-like manes. We’re talking about HAIR SYRUP, the British indie brand that’s completely shaking up hair care right now.
What began as an experiment in a student kitchen is now a global sensation with over 350,000 followers and millions of views. But is it just the next viral trend—or does it really work? The short answer: The results speak for themselves.
At BONSANA, we bring exciting beauty favorites directly to Switzerland. That’s exactly why HAIR SYRUP is now available here—with fast 24-hour delivery from our Swiss warehouse. Let’s take a look at why everyone is really talking about these “syrups.”
The “Pre-Wash” Revolution: What Is HAIR SYRUP?
For years, the conventional wisdom was that healthy hair needed expensive conditioners and leave-in serums above all else. HAIR SYRUP simply flips that principle on its head. The brand focuses on a “pre-wash” oil treatment: instead of trying to rescue your hair after shampooing, you nourish it before you even step into the shower.
The brand was founded in 2020 by Lucie Macleod—based on her own experience with hair breakage and thinning hair. After an appearance on the BBC’s Dragon’s Den, things really took off, and the TikTok community quickly realized: These syrups are exactly the missing piece of the puzzle in every beauty routine.
Unlike traditional heavy oils, which are often difficult to wash out, HAIR SYRUPs are specifically formulated to provide intense care while still rinsing out easily. What’s left behind is shine, softness, and visibly healthy hair.
Why the hype is real: More growth, more shine, more strength
Why does this particular brand have over 350,000 followers and millions of views? It’s simple: growth, shine, and strength.
1. Targeted hair growth with rosemary & mint
Many syrups—including the absolute favorite, Growsmary—contain ingredients like rosemary and peppermint. Studies show that rosemary oil can be very effective for hair growth—without any harsh chemicals. By stimulating blood circulation in the scalp, dormant hair follicles can be activated. The result: fuller, stronger, and longer hair.
2. Shine like “Glass Hair”
If you want the “Glass Hair” look—hair that reflects light almost like a mirror—a pre-wash treatment is a real game-changer. HAIR SYRUP penetrates the hair structure and helps smooth the cuticle layer. That’s exactly what creates mega shine. The result? Hair that looks luxurious, even with minimal effort.
3. Care for damaged & bleached hair
Bleaching, heat styling, and environmental stress can quickly make hair look dry and straw-like. Syrups like Original or Superfoods contain fatty acids and vitamins that deeply nourish the hair and make it more resistant to breakage.

The Ultimate Guide: How to Use HAIR SYRUP Correctly
Ready for the #HairOiling Club? For results like on TikTok, it all comes down to proper application. Here’s our step-by-step guide to your perfect pre-wash ritual:
Step 1: Prepare & section
Start with dry hair. Gently comb out any knots with a wide-tooth comb or detangling brush. Then section your hair into four sections—this way you’ll really cover everything.
Step 2: Apply to scalp and lengths
Apply your HAIR SYRUP directly to the scalp. Massage it in with your fingertips—or a scalp massager—for at least 5 minutes. This massage is super important because it stimulates blood circulation. Then distribute the syrup through the lengths and ends. You don’t need to completely soak your hair—a light, even layer is plenty.
Step 3: Let it sit
This is the most important part. For best results, you should let the syrup sit for at least 1 hour. If your hair is severely damaged, you can leave it on for 2 to 4 hours—for example, while you’re doing chores at home or watching a movie.
Pro tip: Don’t go to sleep with the oil in your hair, unless it’s specifically stated on the bottle. Some active ingredients are very potent.
Step 4: Double cleanse
In the shower, don’t just rinse it out. You should shampoo your hair twice. It’s best to use a deep-cleansing shampoo to ensure everything is removed. You’ll notice how much easier it is to wash out HAIR SYRUP compared to traditional cooking oils.
Step 5: Follow up with your regular routine
Then apply conditioner to the ends as usual. As your hair dries, you’ll immediately notice how soft it feels, how beautifully it shines, and how much less frizz you have.
FAQ: The most common questions about HAIR SYRUP
How often should I use HAIR SYRUP?
For visible results, we recommend using it once a week. If your hair is very dry or damaged, you can also treat it twice a week.
Are HAIR SYRUPs vegan and cruelty-free?
Yes. All HAIR SYRUPs are 100% vegan, cruelty-free, and bottled in small batches in the UK.
Does HAIR SYRUP work on fine or oily hair?
Absolutely. Because the oil is applied before washing and then rinsed out, it doesn’t weigh the hair down. Lemon-Aid and Mint Condition are particularly lightweight and ideal for oily roots.
When will I see results?
Shine and smoothness are visible after the very first use. For more growth and strength, you should use HAIR SYRUP consistently for at least 8 to 12 weeks.
