The Hair Detox
Share
Have you noticed that it can take a while to get used to a hair routine with only natural products? And does your hair feel greasy after only one day? Then a natural hair detox is the way to go.
It takes a while for the hair to get used to natural ingredients, and this is because your scalp may be dehydrated from strong surfactants. Ingredients like SLS and SLES are very strong surfactants, making your scalp produce more and more sebum (the body's own moisture) - and you'll want to wash it again.
Products without strong surfactants will help moisturize your scalp in a healthy way, only washing away the excess from styling products and dirt. In the beginning, it can feel like your hair is getting greasier in shorter intervals - do your best to tolerate that for two weeks, and you will notice that your hair is starting to stay clean longer. This means your scalp has restored its natural pH-level.
