Is hemp seed really good for my hair?
Absolutely. Hemp seed oil contains EFAs in ratios that perfectly match the needs of your skin and hair. To learn more about the benefits of hemp seed in both hair and body care, please see our about hemp section of this website.
Is hemp the same as marijuana?
No. Both hemp and marijuana come from the Cannabis Sativa plant. However, they are completely different with respect to stalk size, growing practices and most importantly, tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) content. THC, which comes from the flowering tops, is the active ingredient in marijuana and contributes to marijuana's medicinal value as well as its mood altering effects. The hemp plant, on the other hand, is harvested solely for its seed and stalk, not its low-THC flowers. THC values in marijuana run about 15-20%, while THC values in industrial hemp are usually standardized at 0.3% or below.
Can I fail a drug test if I use these products?
No. You would have to drink 1/2 cup of pure hemp oil per day for several days, just to register near the cutoff level of 50 ppb THC in urine testing. As for putting it on your skin, even if you took a bath in pure hemp oil, it would have no effect.
Where does your hemp oil and extract come from?
It is grown, harvested and processed in Canada, where the farming and processing of hemp is legal. It is legal to use the processed product in the U.S.
Are Hempz products tested on animals?
No. Hempz products are not tested on animals.
Who do I contact if I need emergency information on product ingredients and safety (for example: my child swallows product or gets some in their eyes)?

Can I buy Hempz products directly from you?
