Questions?
How is Chéribé different from the old Salwa Petersen Brand?
While Salwa Petersen started out as a luxury haircare brand, a long term dream has been to make our products more accessible. to A big part of that was more accessible pricing while keeping our standards that made our OG customers fall in love with us under the Salwa Petersen brand name.
How are these Chéribé prices possible? (It feels too good to be true)
Our team knows their stuff — they’ve developed luxury haircare & pro cult favs. Our formulas have always been the most expensive thing about our products, and that remains true to this day. We gained economies of scale from placing larger orders with our packaging and manufacturing partners. We kept the high concentrations of our proprietary Chébé Complex™, while streamlining formulas. All of these choices resulted in the prices you see today. The exciting part? Our clinical results for the new formulas are coming back with even better results.
