Why Choose PHYTO?
PHYTO’s mission is to make natural hair care with the utmost quality and effectiveness in order to reveal beautiful, healthy hair. PHYTO founder Patrick Ales believes that nature is one with beauty, and the heart of their mission is passion and respect for the plant world. Built on a heritage of craftsmanship and cutting edge scientific advancements, PHYTO boasts the highest concentrations of pure plant extracts in today’s beauty market. PHYTO prides themselves in exclusively using extracts of plants with renewable resources. Most of the plants used in the creation of the product line are grown in the lush countryside of France, without fertilizers or pesticides and using water from wells and rain for irrigation.
Formulated with pure plant extracts and 100% natural essential oils, PHYTO utilizes over 500 different active ingredients that are all sustainably sourced. This dedication and passion for beautiful, healthy hair through plants involves exploring the world to find the most beneficial plant for each beauty concern, and always searching for new ways to extract and preserve the active components in their most potent and luxurious forms.
PHYTO believes beautiful hair grows from a healthy scalp, just like a plant grows from a fertile soil. For this reason PHYTO offers a comprehensive range of problem-solving formulas that are designed to treat the hair and scalp, not just by addressing visible problems. PHYTO scalp treatments address all scalp conditions such as dry, oily, sensitive, or flaky. They are formulated to balance the delicate ecosystem of the hair and scalp, preserving the beneficial flora of the scalp while reducing the presence of harmful bacteria. With a healthy scalp, producing just the right amount of natural oils, hair has a better chance of withstanding daily wear and tear. PHYTO founder Patrick ALES believes that “there is no such thing as bad hair, only poorly treated hair”. PHYTO’s beautifying products penetrate deep into the hair fiber to transform from core to surface. No unnatural coatings or silicone fillers that other products have that just merely sit on the surface and cover the damage instead of treating it.
When it comes to quarterly treatment days with PHYTO experts and constant education for our staff, Studio Booth continues to collaborate with PHYTO to give our clients the best hair care possible.
Studio Booth went to New York Fashion Week!
It’s not very often that someone gets to live out one of their lifelong dreams. Studio Booth was lucky to be able to help one of our own achieve their dreams. Because of high growth with Phyto Hair Care sales, Studio Booth was able to choose one of our stylists to fly to New York Fashion Week and work alongside renowned Phyto stylist Orlando Pita at the Derek Lam runway show. Because of her top sales at the salon and true dedication to the Phyto line, owner Ron Booth chose stylist Lyndsay Clark to represent Studio Booth at New York Fashion Week. Lyndsay took time out of her already busy day to sit down and give us all of the insider details of the backstage madness at NYFW.
After arriving at the Pace Gallery in Chelsea, she was immediately thrown into the hectic world of backstage at fashion week. All 15 stylists were shown the look for the show by Orlando Pita and then went to grab their models. Lyndsay recalls the moment she grabbed her first model and was stolen from her while walking her back to her station. “It was surprisingly competitive.” she says, “My first model was stolen by another stylist as I was walking her back to my work station.” Lyndsay didn’t let that phase her one bit. She went back to the door and grabbed the very next model that walked in and got to work.
On her second model, there was only 20 minutes until show time. Lyndsay described a hectic scene of a model having her hair, nails and makeup done all at once. “I was working on her hair, while another was working on her makeup and someone else was on the floor prepping the models nails.” Not only were there a ton of artists there to work on all 36 models, but there were also countless amounts of fashion bloggers and media crowding the room as well. There was little to no space, but things seemed to move along seamlessly. She had been following Orlando Pita’s career for 19 years and was so excited and honored to be able to work alongside of him and to be a part of something so big. Lyndsay says she would’ve never had dreamed that she would get an opportunity like that in a million years.
Studio Booth continues to strive for opportunities like this that allows our staff to grown in the hair industry. Collaborating with Phyto is something Studio Booth prides itself on, and will continue to do in the future.

Continuing Education at Studio Booth
The Studio Booth staff attended a two hour hands on Phyto product knowledge class. Taught by a top Phyto educator, our staff learned many new ways to utilize the different styling products by Phyto. Giving our stylists a way to diversify to use of the products was a main focus of the class. During the class, our staff was split into teams and worked one on one with the educator and learned new styling techniques using the Phyto product line.
One of the products that the stylists used was the Phyto Curl Energizing Cream. Curl Energizing Cream provides a strong hold while moisturizing and protecting the hair. The teams used this product paired with a thermal iron to create “crunch free” curls that last. Whether rain or shine, curls remain perfectly defined and frizz free all day long.
With continuing education for our staff, Studio Booth is always ahead of all of the latest fashion trends. Studio Booth is your go to salon when you want to work with a team with the most up to date information on all of your favorite salon product lines and styles.
