New Curlaway® Curl Relaxer Offers Gradual,
Gentle Relaxation for Multi-Ethnic Hair
Princeton,
NJ -April 12, 2006 -- Xenna Corporation (www.xenna.com)
CEO C. J. Buck, MIA announced today the company has launched
its Curlaway® Curl Relaxer brand, building on its already
established base of natural personal care products. Responding
to a growing trend among multi-ethnic individuals to go back
to "natural," Curlaway is being offered as a new solution
for these individuals, who often experience damage from traditional
chemical hair straighteners.
Buck says, "Curlaway is truly
revolutionary because of its gentle method of changing the
structure of curly hair without the use of harsh alkaline
ingredients. Curlaway is so safe that it can be used directly
on chemically-relaxed hair to refresh a perm and on children's
and men's hair."
Curlaway was recently selected as one of the products to
be distributed to celebrities and other attendees at the
7th Annual Hollywood Makeup Artists and Hair Stylists Guild
Awards. The event will take place at the Beverly Hilton
Hotel in Beverly Hills, California on April 22.
Xenna has entered into a distribution agreement with Beauty
Enterprises, based in Hartford, Connecticut to distribute
Curlaway nationally to beauty supply stores. The brand's
introduction will feature 6-unit displays. The product's
MSRP is $19.99, for a 6 oz jar - 6 to 8 applications.
Patented Curlaway Gel uses totally different ingredients
than other relaxers. It contains a natural source of acetic
acid to modify the amino acid anchors of the disulfide bond
without breaking it, as alkaline, conventional relaxers
do. With repeated applications, curl relaxes - the more
the gel is applied, the straighter hair becomes. Additionally,
Curlaway's conditioning ingredients -- MSM, grapeseed oil
and DL panthenol -- soften brittle or dry hair. It also
contains a natural thickener, xanthan gum, derived from
cabbage, and a light green apple fragrance.
Designed to respond to specific market demand for a semi-permanent
relaxer that does not cause breakage, Curlaway Gel is a
one-step process requiring no neutralization. It gently
removes natural curl, makes hair easier to comb and style
- all without the use of harsh chemicals. Curlaway can be
used as an overnight treatment and, with very light application,
as a daily, leave-in conditioning-relaxer.
Buck says, "With Curlaway, you can have a big, bouncy curls
or ringlets for a more natural look. The more you use Curlaway,
the straighter your hair becomes, so users can simply stop
using Curlaway when they have the look they like - or they
can keep using it to achieve silky-straight hair that's
easy to style and manage."
Curlaway is left in the hair for three or more hours or
overnight, so Buck says it has not been marketed to stylists
who want a product that will straighten in one treatment
while the client is at the salon. Curlaway takes about 20
applications to straighten virgin curly hair, and an average
of 5 applications to relax permed or wavy hair.
Xenna offers a money-back, no time limit guarantee. Curlaway
is fully refundable if you are not happy for any reason.
According to Buck, the decision to distribute Curlaway nationally
came as the result of web sales response and an extremely
positive response from consumers. Comments have included:
"Where have you been all of my life? Curlaway
is easy to use, gentle, and most of all it works."
"Curlaway is wonderful! It has literally changed
my life. Now I like who I am and am happy to look in the
mirror! I use Curlaway every day as a relaxing conditioner
and once a month as an overnight treatment. I get compliments
on my hair all the time! And the price for Curlaway is
unbelievable for what you get… my hair is soft, shiny
and silky!"
