The composition of certain beauty products, and in particular hair products, sometimes makes you dizzy. Complicated names that often hide products that are not very natural... If you want to turn to care products that are more respectful of your health, without sulfates, without silicones, without parabens, without sodium, without synthetic fragrances and without artificial colorings, you have to look on the side of biological departments or pharmacies. Sulfate-free shampoos are indeed much less aggressive. Because this synthetic ingredient is a mixture of sulfur, lauric alcohol and petroleum jelly. The dosages are different, depending on the hair care. But in any case, this synthetic ingredient is bad for health and for the environment. Paraben is also dangerous for health. It helps fight germs, but studies have shown it can be carcinogenic. Also avoid silicone-based products. Especially present in conditioners and masks, silicones smooth the lengths, but prevent the fiber from breathing.
Sulphate-based products tend to lather a lot. Also, when you are not used to sulfate-free shampoos, it may come as a surprise. Because we often tend to think that the foam reflects the effectiveness of a treatment. But that doesn't mean anything! Hair looks shinier and smoother. But after several uses, the hair fiber is suffocated! The hair no longer breathes! Worse:the keratin that brings flexibility to the lengths is weakened. But sulphates, parabens and silicones are also absorbed by our body. Studies have also shown that they can cause damage to our organs. Instead, opt for organic shampoos with as many natural ingredients as possible. To go even further, you can also make your hair care yourself, with a cleansing base, essential oils and vegetable oils.
To find a sulfate-free, organic and natural shampoo, you can go directly to a pharmacy. Do not hesitate to ask your pharmacist for advice to find the shampoo that suits you best. You can also find your happiness in some organic shops. Be aware that some supermarkets have a small organic section. Finally, surf the Internet to find 100% natural brands! In any case, read the label carefully and do not trust the packaging. Some brands trick with green colors and floral illustrations, while the product contains sulfates and silicones.
