At Ardor Organics, we are always searching for ways to give our clients beautiful results without compromising their health or the planet. One of our favourite services that delivers both is OWAY’s Hnectar Gloss, Tone & Treat. This is not your standard toner – it is a semi-permanent colour infusion combined with a reparative treatment that leaves your hair glowing, soft, and stronger with every use.
Firstly, who is OWAY?
OWAY (Organic Way) is the world’s first professional haircare and colour brand to base its entire range on biodynamic farming, organic formulations, and sustainable packaging. Their journey began in Bologna, Italy, on a family-run biodynamic farm called Ortofficina, where medicinal plants, herbs, and essential oils are grown without synthetic chemicals or pesticides.
Instead of harsh industrial farming, OWAY uses ancient, regenerative methods to create ingredients that are more potent, more active, and more respectful of the Earth. These botanicals are then distilled fresh and turned into high-performance products for salons and clients who want results without compromise.
But OWAY doesn’t stop at ingredients:
-
Their packaging is almost entirely glass and aluminium, chosen because it’s infinitely recyclable and better for the planet.
-
They are leaders in the green chemistry movement, replacing petrochemical derivatives with plant-based alternatives wherever possible.
-
Their global community of salons and ambassadors is united by one mission: to prove that luxury and sustainability can exist together.
We are proud to partner with OWAY because they reflect our own values: low-tox, eco-conscious, premium salon experiences that care for people and the planet.
What is Hnectar?
Hnectar is OWAY’s hybrid gel colour line made from natural nectars and proteins. It sits alongside traditional colour but is different in two important ways:
- It tones, glosses, and replumps the hair in one step.
- It is free from harsh chemicals such as ammonia, PPD, resorcinol, mineral oil, alcohol, and synthetic fragrance.
That means the experience is gentler on your scalp and skin, while still delivering radiant results.
Why Hnectar is Different from a Standard Toner
Most toners only refresh the colour. Hnectar goes further – it restructures the hair fibre while depositing tone. From the very first application, your hair feels more hydrated, plumper, and healthier. It can even slightly lighten 1 shade gently while protecting the hair fibre.
The results:
- Adds shine and vitality
- Reverses dullness and flat colour
- Provides long-lasting hydration
- Replumps and repairs the hair fibre
- Leaves hair soft, nourished, and luminous
Who is Hnectar For?
- Blondes who want to refresh tone and shine between lightening sessions
- Brunettes & coppers seeking vibrant richness and depth
- First-time colour clients wanting a gentle, natural result
- Clients with sensitive scalps who cannot tolerate harsh colour
- Hair lacking lustre, dry, or stressed that needs a boost of moisture and shine
Important to know: Hnectar is a not like permanent hair colours. It is not designed to provide 100% grey coverage. If you need complete coverage, a permanent colour service will be better suited.
The Science of Shine – Active Ingredients
What makes Hnectar so powerful is its blend of biodynamic nectars and proteins:
- Biodynamic Elderberry Nectar → Restores shine, brightness, and vitality to dull hair.
- Ethical Yerba Mate → Rich in antioxidants, protects against free radical damage, and prevents premature ageing of the hair.
- Organic Mallow Nectar → Soothing, anti-inflammatory, and hydrating – perfect for sensitive scalps.
- Cotton Proteins → Strengthen, soften, and rebuild the hair fibre while preventing moisture loss.
- Papamiel Nectar → Rich in sugars, amino acids, vitamins, and minerals for hydration, softness, and cell regeneration.
This cocktail of natural actives works to restore health and beauty to the hair while delivering glossy, natural reflections.
Why It Is a Premium Service
Hnectar is both a professional gloss and a restorative treatment in one. That means instead of paying for colour and then adding a separate treatment, you receive dual benefits in one session. It uses the purest ingredients sourced from OWAY’s biodynamic farm in Italy, with sustainable packaging and fair-trade practices – ensuring every application is better for you and the planet.
Understanding our pricing – Our Gram System
To keep pricing fair and transparent, we charge based on the grams of colour used:
- Up to 34g → generally regrowth or short hair above ear
- 35–44g → generally above shoulders
- 45–55g → generally above bra strap
- 55–64g → generally just below
The amount of colour needed also depends on hair thickness. For example, a client with hair to the shoulders but very thick may need more colour than someone with fine hair that reaches their bra strap.
Any additional product used beyond the booked amount will be charged per gram. If you’re unsure which option to select, book according to your hair length using our guide. We can always add more colour on the day if needed.
Why We Love It at Ardor
Hnectar reflects everything Ardor Organics stands for: low-tox beauty, premium results, and sustainable practices. Clients love the shine, softness, and strength they see after one session – and many are amazed that a toner can feel like such a luxurious treatment.
It’s the perfect choice for those who want more than colour – those who want hair that looks incredible and feels healthier every visit.
