My Story


The Heart Behind Hairmaid

Hi lovely soul, I’m so glad you’re here. My name is Mandeep also known as Mani! I’m the founder and spirit behind Hairmaid, a sacred blend born from my own journey of loss, healing, and love.

My relationship with hair has been anything but simple. It all started back in the 90s, when I was just a teenager. Like so many of us, I loved the tight braids, the slick back high ponytails, the styles we all thought were beautiful. But I didn’t realise the damage being done underneath. Slowly, I started losing my hairline, I had small broken strands sticking up and out that wouldn't settle. The thinning was subtle at first… but soon, I was staring at the mirror, holding back tears, thinking maybe now i need to cut a fringe but my mum would never approve! I didn’t even know it had a name then, it's called Traction Alopecia. This happens when you end up tugging tightly on the hair follicles literally scaring them. It wasn’t just about hair. It was about identity. About self-worth. I felt like I was fading.

But even back then, I had this faith and determination that i could fix this, something soft but strong. Moving on many years ahead, I began mixing oils from my kitchen, researching herbs, nuts and seeds, connecting with the wisdom of nature. I absolutely loved growing my own herbs in the garden. My intuition guided me, and so did my deep love for nurturing others. My love language is to help and serve those who need it.

The oils began to work. Little by little, my hair began to return. I felt hope blooming again.

Years later, motherhood brought its own sacred beauty and its own challenges. Postpartum hair loss hit me hard in 2010, and again in 2015. Both times, I found myself starting over. But I returned to my oils and my rituals.

By the time the world slowed down during Covid, my formula was ready. Thoroughly testing it, my hair was healthy, thriving, and completely natural. I was so happy, not just with how it looked, but how it made me feel. I have something so amazing here! One day, I posted a little video of myself mixing my oils on social media, as you do, no big plans, just sharing joy. Then someone asked, “Can I have one?” Of course, I said yes.

Then came another. And another. And just like that it started.

But I knew the world was changing, so many people today live with allergies, sensitivities, and a need for true, clean ingredients. I wanted to be sure that what I shared was not only effective, but also safe. So I had the oil professionally formulated, tested, and poured all my heart into it.

And I gave her a name, HAIRMAID.

She has served me with grace. She’s healed me through seasons of growth and loss. She’s helped me help others.

Though she was ready for the world in 2022, life had another plan, a full house renovation that took two full years of energy and time. And that’s okay. Because everything in nature blooms in divine timing.

It's 2025!
She’s finally here.
Welcome to the world, HAIRMAID.

Born from pain, made with love, and rooted in realness.

Whether you’re here because of hair loss, a desire for something more natural, or because you were guided here by spirit - I see you. And I hope Hairmaid embraces your heart the way it has embraced mine.

This is more than a hair oil, it's a ritual, a return to yourself. This is your journey in a bottle.
With love,

Mani
