Sim Sensitive is crafted in a fully solar-powered factory in Tampere, Finland, and is completely fragrance-free , a combination that sets it apart in the professional colour and retail hair-care world.

 

Having recently added Sim to our offering and being blown away by its capabilities so far – we naturally had to send some experts in immediately to scope it all out and bring back the facts!
Enter Vee and Lourens and their trip to Funland
Founded in Finland in 1994, Sim Sensitive was born from the desire to create high-quality, perfume-free, salon-grade hair-care products – especially with occupational health and sensitive scalps in mind. We are BEYOND thrilled to have Sim in scar and have been in talks to do so for years now! This is the culmination of many years of research and testing.
Have a look at some of these shots of their amazing trip.
It started off with a dinner with Sim Global and their artists from around the world. a full day of training and experimenting at the entirely solar factory and even some one on one time with Sim genius Harri at the Helsinki Studio.
Before heading off home Lourens and Vee hit the Paris Streets.  There had to be a reason for Lourens to grow his tache!

Why this visit matters.

 

Our own stylists, Verushka and Lourens, have been treated to this education experience at the Sim Sensitive headquarters and factory in Tampere, Finland. They have met hair artists from all over the world with a similar desire; to play, test and immerse themselves in Sim. The aim: to dive deep into the brand’s manufacturing, R&D, philosophy and product development, then return home to Cape Town brimming with inspiration and expertise elevating our in-salon service and home-care offering.

What makes Sim Sensitive unique

 

  • Philosophy: “For us, sensitivity and domesticity matter , the strength to be ourselves. That’s why we make Scandinavian hair cosmetics from pure raw materials using solar energy.”

  • DS Line: Professional hair-care and styling solutions for clients seeking fragrance-free, low-chemical exposure without sacrificing performance.

  • Ethics: Vegan, perfume-free, and dermatologically tested.

  • Finnish Manufacture: Produced in a dedicated clean-air facility in Tampere, designed for salon-grade quality.

What this means for scar clients

 

– To put it bluntly; the choice of a Fragrance Free line is enough. But there’s even more:
  • Signature Treatments: New treatments combine therapeutic performance for scalp, colour, and vegan needs with luxurious results.

  • Curated Home Care: Products are now displayed with clear guidance for hair and scalp concerns, informed by stylists trained at Sim’s origin.

  • In-Salon Experience: Product-demo days and promotions allow clients to test and learn before committing to home care.

  • Inspired Styling: Expect fresh colour-care protocols, finishing techniques, and styling inspiration grounded in Sim Sensitive’s ethos of purity and performance.

This journey was more than a trip – it was an infusion of knowledge, inspiration, and innovation, ensuring every client experience reflects the excellence of Sim Sensitive and our commitment to world-class hair care.

The biggest thank you to Steve who we SIMply love working with! And to Harri and the Sim team over there. We cant wait to return for more.
