A breath of ocean air for your roots, this seaweed-powered dry shampoo offers a quick yet deeply revitalizing refresh when time or tides don’t allow for a full wash. Irish sea moss, brown rice powder, kaolin clay, and tapioca starch come together to absorb oil, lift the roots, and restore texture...leaving hair airy, soft, and subtly volumized. Essential oils of rose geranium and palmarosa awaken the senses with a coastal wild rose aroma, like wind through seaside blooms. Blending seamlessly into all hair types and tones, this minimal yet mighty formula is housed in a re-closeable aluminum shaker for precise, travel-ready application. Hair feels clean, lifted, and alive - no rinse required.

As a child, Jana Blankenship loved to make potions mixing roses, pine needles, and wild grasses in water – delighted by the scents and sensations of the natural world. Her grandmothers both influenced her love of plants in their own ways. Jana’s paternal grandmother’s reverence for her garden and the fearlessness of the tides shaped her impressionable young mind, while her maternal grandmother had a background in folk herbalism and cosmetology that she graciously shared, teaching Jana how to use plant-based oils on her skin and hair. At 7 years old, she formulated her first fragrance secretly mixing several potent perfumes from her mother’s collection of vibrantly colored bottles. Her first perfume awakened her creative instinct, and her penchant for alchemy and wonder of nature only deepened as she grew older.
After many years of playing alchemist in her kitchen while balancing work as a full-time curator, Captain Blankenship was born in 2009. From the moment Jana’s passion project evolved into a brand, she have felt compelled to pioneer a new standard in beauty and business. Her own personal call to the wild. Through Captain Blankeship formulas, she hopes to free people from conventional ideas of beauty, guiding them into a deeper connection with nature where they can find their inner wild. Because it is through this inextricable, limitless connection to the world around us that we begin to see beauty in all its forms.
Since its inception, Captain Blankenship has been on a mission to create more beauty while leaving less waste behind. That means fewer ingredients, fewer products, conscious packaging and mutually beneficial partnerships that help restore natural resources that are lost along the way. As they continue their journey in a direction that sustains both people and planet, they deepen their purpose to be a wild force for good, curators of creation and students of nature’s unmatched intelligence. When selecting materials, they seek to see the bigger picture. That means considering not just the first lifecycle of a product, but its many potential lifecycles.
