We are phasing out most of the AG Cosmetics Hair Care Line. We are a small business and carrying the whole line didn't make sense. As much as we like the entire line we don't have the diversity needed to carry all of them. But, we are keeping two categories that our clients love; Keratin Repair and most of the Style line.
INTRODUCING KERATIN REPAIR in March 2013: Restore strength and significantly reduce breakage in chemically straightened, coloured and distressed hair. AG's greatest innovation yet - Keratin Repair.
