About Us

Hi, I’m Syed, the founder of Divine Herbal, and the person who formulated each product.

Divine Herbal began as a personal mission. At 25, I started noticing my hair thinning at the crown. I didn’t feel comfortable turning to chemical treatments, so I asked myself a simple question: if hair loss has always existed, what did people rely on before modern hair loss interventions?

Finding the answer wasn’t straightforward...

Many a time I doubted whether I would succeed in finding the answers, and felt like giving up before I even started. And right then I'd remember the lyrics to a song (Make it happen) that inspired me growing up  - and so I ventured forth! I began researching extensively, then travelled where I could, to learn more firsthand. I wanted to understand the root causes of hair loss, whether diet, climate, water, or genetics played a role. What I discovered was consistent across various cultures: for generations, people have used oils and herbal extracts to care for their hair and scalp.

Back in the UK, I set out to bring this knowledge together. My goal was to develop a formula that could both nourish the hair and support new growth. It took over a year of testing and refining to get it right.

When I finally began using the formula in 2009, I was cautiously optimistic. Within weeks, I noticed less shedding. After 6–7 months, my hair appeared thicker in the crown area. Encouraged by the results, my grandmother who was 71 at the time - also tried it and experienced similar improvements.

That’s when I realised this could make a difference for others too...

Today, over 15 years later, Divine Herbal products are stocked in more than 130 pharmacies & salons across the UK. We’ve grown entirely through word of mouth, without advertising or PR.

I’ve intentionally kept our range small - just 7 products, because I believe in quality over quantity. Every product we offer is something I genuinely stand behind.

I also understand how personal hair loss can feel. It’s not just about appearance, it can affect confidence too. Many people have tried numerous products already and feel uncertain. That’s why we offer a 60-day money-back guarantee, so that everyone has the chance to try our Hair Oil without risk.  

For me, nothing is more rewarding than an email or message from someone who has used one of my products and seen a difference. These are the things that keep me going...
