Diluted, chemically-based ingredients
-
Contains acidic perfumes
What does it do?
-
Sulfates are harsh detergents that create the lather in your hair. While they make your hair feel cleaner, they strip away natural oils, resulting in dry and frizzy hair.
-
Parabens (a man-made wax) coat every individual hair strand, preventing your hair from soaking in moisture. At first your hair will feel smooth, but over time will result in dryness.
-
Our hair has a natural pH of 3.67. Store-bought products are often higher on the pH scale, which causes static electricity when used in your hair. In the long-term, this will result in breakage and frizz.
-
Diluted ingredients cause you to use more shampoo/conditioner, so you have to buy more often.
-
Frequency of usage will cause further damage, and leave you dependent on other types of products to restore your hair .
-
Products with high levels of perfumes result in increased acidity, throwing off the chemical balance of your hair, especially if you have color.
-
Sulfate and paraben free
-
Neutral pH balance
-
More Concentrated, higher amounts of natural ingredients
-
Some contain aromatherapy as opposed to perfume
What does it do?
-
The absence of sulfates and parabens allow your hair to create its natural protective oils, and soak in moisture. This leaves your hair feeling healthy and strong.
-
Neutral pH balance (thanks to greater amounts of natural ingredients) keeps the scalp healthy, with little to no frizz or breakage.
-
Concentrated, healthy ingredients means you will use less product (and less types of products) saving you money in the long-run, and producing less waste for the environment.
