Lustrous, healthy hair begins with the basics; a deeply cleansing shampoo, a nourishing conditioner, paired with a restorative oil. But choosing products with natural ingredients, packed with vitamins and nutrients that promote truly healthy hair, makes the world of difference when it comes to achieving a gorgeous mane.
With many everyday hair products containing harsh, irritating ingredients, instead opting for the eu naturel when it comes to your haircare brings a wealth of benefits. We explore how selecting natural ingredients can drastically improve the condition of your hair, hydrating, protecting and providing unparalleled shine. Be kind to your hair – it will thank you.
The Impact Of Harsh Chemicals On Hair Health
Sulphates, silicones and parabens; it’s likely that you’ve heard of these harsh chemicals, often listed in the lengthy ingredient lists of many commercial hair products. These chemicals have garnered negative press across the beauty and wellness industry for their detrimental effects on hair health, but have you ever found yourself wondering why?
While sulphates are effective when it comes to removing dirt and oil, these cleansing agents can often be harsh, stripping away the precious natural oils that protect and moisturise the hair. Equally damaging are silicones, chemicals used to provide shine, which can build up over time, weighing down the hair and preventing moisture from penetrating the hair follicles. And it doesn’t get much better when it comes to parabens; these preservatives extend product shelf-life; however, they can trigger allergic reactions and irritation.
Whilst not everyone will experience the negative effects of these ingredients, more often than not, they lead to dryness and overall, diminished hair health. Opting for sulphate, silicone and paraben-free products that instead harness the power of natural ingredients can help to maintain the natural health and integrity of the hair.
Healthy Locks, Healthy Planet
Silky, nourished hair and a healthy scalp can be achieved with haircare products that contain natural ingredients, from oils to butters and extracts. Many natural ingredients, such as Aloe Vera, Coconut oil and Shea butter are excellent for providing moisture to dry hair. These luxurious natural oils often contain key vitamins, minerals and antioxidants with intensely nourishing properties, promoting growth and overall hair health. Natural ingredients like Jojoba oil, Argan oil and Chamomile can enhance hair texture, providing softness, shine and taming frizz.
Not only do natural ingredients protect your locks, but they also play a role in protecting the planet, too. Natural products contribute to less water pollution and soil contamination through avoiding synthetic ingredients, meaning you won’t be rinsing these harmful chemicals down the drain on hair-wash day. Opting for products with recyclable or plastic-free packaging is also a plus for the environment when it comes to selecting the right products for your hair.
