Funding & Transparency
We believe transparency is the foundation of trust. So here is an open account of how HairLuxe is funded.

You read a test report
We recommend a product based on our 7-step process.
You click an affiliate link
The link is marked with an asterisk (*). You pay the same price as you would buying direct from the retailer.
We earn a small commission
From the retailer, not from you. That commission pays for our research and our own product tests.
HairLuxe is funded by affiliate links. When you buy through one of our links, we may earn a small commission. You pay nothing extra.
Through the Amazon Associates program, for example: the price is identical whether you buy through our link or straight from the retailer. That income pays for our research, our own product tests and the ongoing development of this site.
We accept no paid product placements, no sponsored content and no native advertising.
You can spot an affiliate link by the asterisk (*) after the product name and by the disclosure note in the footer of every page.
Editorial Independence
Rankings are based solely on our 7-step research process.
No manufacturer can buy a placement—directly or indirectly.
We recommend products that have no affiliate program at all.
The order reflects test results, not commission rates.
Every affiliate link is clearly marked.
