ANCHOR: Hair Smoothing Balm
ANCHOR is a concentrated botanical hair balm designed for anyone needing smoother, more polished hair with soft, flexible control, especially in demanding daily routines, long-wear styling, or humidity-prone environments. Created to tame flyaways, refine buns and braids, and support sleek, structured styles without stiffness or buildup, ANCHOR leaves hair feeling controlled, nourished, and naturally polished rather than heavy, crunchy, or overstyled.
Originally developed for structured styling in military and training environments, ANCHOR has become a daily staple for smoothing, shaping, and finishing across a wide range of hair types and routines. The rich balm melts easily between the fingers and can be used sparingly on damp hair before styling or lightly applied to dry hair for touch-ups and polish throughout the day.
Designed to smooth without stiffness, crunch, buildup, or heaviness, ANCHOR offers a refined, natural finish with subtle hold and lasting control.
Especially supportive for:
buns, braids, ponytails, and sleek styles
textured or humidity-prone hair
smoothing flyaways and dry ends
polished everyday styling
military, dance, equestrian, athletic, and training environments
Subtly scented only through whole-plant infusions. Suitable for all hair types and appropriate for both women and men. Net 2 ounces in a keepsake walnut container.

Pumpkin short rib ravioli is a delicious pasta dish that is perfect for fall by combining the savory flavors of braised short ribs with the sweet, earthy taste of pumpkin. The ravioli are made from fresh pasta dough filled with a mixture of tender, shredded short ribs that have been cooked low and slow in broth with herbs and spices, and pureed pumpkin for added creaminess and flavor. For the Pasta: 2 cups flour 1 tsp salt 4 egg yolks 1/2 pumpkin purée For the Short Ribs: 1 lb beef short ribs S&P 1 tbsp butter 1 onion, chopped 3 cloves of garlic, minced 1 tbsp tomato paste 2 cups dry red wine 2 cups beef stock For the ribs: 1. Generously season ribs with salt and pepper. Preheat oven to 350 F. In a large Dutch oven over medium high heat, melt tbsp of butter and sear each side of ribs to form a nice crust, about 3 mins each side. Remove from pot and set aside. 2. Add onions and garlic to beef drippings in the pot and sauté until translucent, about 4 mins. Add 1 tbsp tomato paste and stir into onions, letting it caramelize and slightly stick to the pan, around 4 mins. 3. Add red wine and gently scrape bits from the bottom of the pan, add beef stock and return ribs to the pot. Cover with a lid and bake for 2.5-3 hrs. Ribs should fall off the bone and be very tender. Shred with a knife and fork and spoon juices over the beef to keep moist. For the pasta: 1.On a clean surface, pile your flour and make a well in the center. Add eggs + pumpkin. Using a fork, carefully drag the inside ring of flour into the center and mix to gradually incorporate all flour. Use a dough cutter or your hands to knead as dough begins to form. 2. Once dough is completely mixed, cut in two parts and begin rolling both pieces (individually) on a floured surface (add flour to rolling pin) to as thin as you can get them. 3. Use your ravioli cutter to measure how far you need to space out the filling. Arrange quarter sized amounts of shredded beef evenly spaced on the bottom ravioli sheet. Once full, lay the top sheet over top and stamp out your raviolis. Combine dough scraps and re roll to make more raviolis until you’ve used it all. 5. Boil for about 2-3 minutes and strain. Enjoy!
