The To-Go Set

Description

The Root Project The To-Go Set pairs travel-ready sizes of Clean Canvas Shampoo and Instant Pleasure Conditioner for cleansing and conditioning on the go. Ideal for packing light, gym bags, weekend trips, or discovering the brand for the first time, this compact duo brings two everyday haircare essentials wherever they’re needed. Together, the formulas leave hair feeling fresh, soft, smooth, and easy to manage.

Root Complex Technology brings the brand’s root-focused approach to both formulas, each featuring nourishing aloe leaf juice in place of a traditional water base. Triple-distilled Japanese peppermint adds a crisp, cooling sensation to the shampoo, while the conditioner provides a silky, lightweight conditioning experience with slip and shine. Hair is left feeling clean, soft, and polished from roots to ends.

Set Includes:

1x - Clean Canvas Detoxifying Hair Cleanser (60ml) - Provides a thorough cleanse for buildup and excess oil while caring for the scalp. Its refreshing wash leaves roots feeling reset without stripping.

1x - Instant Pleasure Conditioner (60ml) - Combines lightweight daily conditioning with treatment-level slip, hydration, and shine. The formula smooths through the lengths, leaving hair easier to detangle, style, and manage.

HOW TO USE IT

Begin with Clean Canvas, massaging it into the wet scalp and hair. Leave on for 1–3 minutes, then rinse thoroughly. Follow with Instant Pleasure, applying from mid-lengths to ends or from roots to ends if the scalp is dry. Leave on for 2–3 minutes, then rinse thoroughly.

ABOUT THIS BRAND

The Root Project is a New York-based modern haircare brand founded by beauty industry veterans Lucrecia Jovel and Patrick Harriman, whose combined experience spans more than three decades across beauty, luxury product innovation, brand development and global advertising. Built on the philosophy “Better Staples. Better Hair.,” The Root Project reimagines everyday haircare with clean, effective and indulgent formulas designed to care for the complete hair ecosystem—from scalp and roots to strands. At the heart of the brand is a simple belief: Rootcare is Haircare. By giving the scalp and roots the same thoughtful attention we give our skin, The Root Project creates purposeful essentials that leave hair feeling stronger, softer, smoother and visibly healthier.

Every formula begins with nutrient-rich aloe leaf juice in place of water, creating a functional base that helps soothe and balance the scalp while hydrating and softening the hair. Founder-formulated with intention, each product pairs high-performing, thoughtfully selected ingredients with a rich, sensorial experience that makes caring for your hair feel as good as the results. The same consideration extends beyond the formulas: The Root Project partners with #tide to create bottles and jars from upcycled ocean-bound plastic and supports One Tree Planted, reflecting a more considered approach to haircare from formula to packaging and beyond.
