Hello you, nice to see you again
Today I want to talk about shampoo. About regular shampoo, and organic shampoo.
This is based on my personal experiences with shampoo, i'm not a advisor.
Shampoo is shampoo
I always had thick, heavy and a length around my shoulder or even longer. I never thought about shampoo that much when I was younger, it was just shampoo when I was showering and it's good for the hairs When I was about 12 years young, I started to have more interest in hair masks and different shampoos. With friends we tried all kinds of shampoos and when we were in the mall we would buy a bottle of shampoo that we thought was nice. We payed attention to the smell and if it was for our hairtype the “right” shampoo
There must be an alternative
I never had trouble with shampoos and I also got preferences about a brand because I got used to it. Much later, when I was like 20 years old, my hair had changed. It was still thick an heavy but somehow there was no life in it, even after a shampoo-session, it just didn't got the souplesse it had before and I was playing around d a bit with different kind of shampoos that promised dancing hairs and right nutrition and all that kind of sh.. things, couldn't find anything right away and let it go, I thought it was a phase or so. So later on I was looking at a video on YouTube of a girl who did cool stuff with her hair, she made different hairstyles, dyed her hair with henna and used organic shampoo.
What's in it for me
So she also made a video about organic shampoo and normal shampoo and what the differences are. In this video she explained that some ingredients in “normal/regular” shampoo are pretty damaging for your hair like; sodium laureth sulfates, sillicones and other cones, and parabens.
SLS: Sodium laureth sulfate is the main ingredient of soap.
*The sulfates make it smell good. Then you got the sodium laureth what basically is soap. You can find it in hand soap, shampoos, shower gels etc. It is a cleanser, a really harsh cleanser to take away all of the dirt and oils. It is known as a aggressive cleanser because even cars and garage floors can be cleaned with this stuff, it dries out the hair and the skin/scalp, that is NOT something I want to put on my head and on my hair*. ![image](
*The other things you can find in there, are silicones and this makes the hair very shiny and smooth and you could say that is a good thing but it seals your hair so it is locked in a silicone-layer and that way no natural elements can come trough and when it eventually does, your hairs resistance can be lower and in need of that layer. This one you see more often in hair conditioners. If your head or skin feels dry after shampooing or a shower with a shower gel, it is a idea to look at the ingredients for SLS SLES and Silicones or parabens. and see if you notice a difference with a product that doesn't contain SLS SLES or Silicones. After her talk about organic shampoo I wanted to test it out*.
Organic is the new regular
There are many organic products to wash your body and hair with.
I found a shampoo with olive oil in it, smelled nice.
I started using this shampoo and I was skeptical about it, I also was used to see a lot of foam and the idea that I can’t massage my head with a lot of foam to work it in, well I just did the same thing as I always did but then with olive oil shampoo, and It had also foam, smelled amazingly good and even better, my hair was feeling great. It was soft and shiny and I didn't even used a conditioner after shampooing. My best friend also tried this shampoo but she didn't like it at all so it is not a good product for everyone, and it is good that there are different brands of organic shampoo and they vary in ingredients but all good, I love the shampoo very much and I wouldn't want to change it anymore.
Affordable
The prices may vary too I pay around 12 dollar for a bottle of organic shampoo but I don’t have to buy it very often because I only wash my hair once a week… yes it's true my hair won't get greasy for 6 days . How often do you wash you hair?
