Our Story

Hi, I'm Mitchell. I started mirikk (the brand) in 2024, though I had been developing the concept and prototyping natural oil mixtures for over a year beforehand. See, for as long as I could remember I hated washing my hair. The dry, frizzy aftermath felt terrible. The only thing worse was not washing my hair and having a painful and itchy scalp with oily hair after a few days.

Washing meant living life with a fluffy dome, yet not washing meant flakes and itching. One quick scratch would set off an avalanche revealing the red, barren surface below. I went through "anti-dandruff" shampoo like no tomorrow. No matter the brand, no matter the strength, I couldn't go more than three days without washing my hair.

I had the situation under control, I could keep the itch and flakes at bay but I still hated washing my hair. So I came up with the goal of increasing the number of days I could go without a wash. The TL;DR version - I found the best way to increase the length between washes is to use a natural pre-wash oil. More specifically, a mixture of Argan, Coconut, Sweet Orange and Rosemary in a top secret ratio to prevent a "too oily" result. It also has the added benefit of reducing after-wash frizz and soothing the scalp.

My partner saw how well the blend worked for me when used as a pre-wash oil and started using it herself, though for a different reason. She has long, dark hair that was prone to breakage and split-ends (she no longer has to worry about that). Her hair is now longer than ever and maintains its shine and strength. We even joke about how her hair has the WhooOOP (said in a low-to-high tone) - the little bouncy flick at the end that shows just how healthy her hair is.

We've now built a brand around this mixture and we continue searching for and developing other natural ways to improve our hair and scalp care routines.
