About the Brand

Meet the Founder

I'm Shabnam Tawaniwala,the face behind Prairie.I started Prairie during COVID-19 when the world slowed down and forced us to focus on the basics.

I wanted to take the guess work out of healthy hair care, so I set out to create a thoughtful collection of products that actually care for your locks.

Prairie by Shabnam was built on an idea that caring for your hair should feel like a moment of peace, not a chore.

Why a Prairie

More Than Hair Oil A Complete Hair Ritual.

MB3

At Prairie by Shabnam, we don't believe in miracle claims. We believe in understanding why your hair is changing.

Our rituals are thoughtfully created to address the root causes and support your hair through every stage, every season.

Prairie — Why a Hair Routine

Hair Fall

Weakened roots and everyday stress on the scalp let strands shed before their natural cycle ends.

Thinning Temples

Hormonal shifts and tension from tight styles slowly shrink the follicles along your hairline.

Frizz

Rough, raised cuticles lose and absorb moisture unevenly, leaving strands looking dry and unruly.

Dry & Damaged Hair

Heat, chemical treatments, and hard water strip away the natural oils that keep hair soft.

Oily Scalp

Overactive oil glands and product buildup collect at the roots, weighing hair down fast.

Dandruff

An imbalanced scalp microbiome speeds up skin renewal, showing up as visible flaking.

40+

Hair Changes After 40

Slowing hormone production thins each strand and stretches out how long hair takes to grow.
