Growing hair-related concerns have let people thinking and worrying about the heavily marketed products from different brands. However, people must evaluate or verify the label of ingredients, identifying which one is suitable for them.
Silicones create a barrier around the hair to prevent loss of moisture. However, they are quite tough to wash off using a normal shampoo. For this, only a sulfate-based shampoo would help, which, by the way, is irritating and moisture-sucking.
Using a silicone free shampoo depends on hair type. Silicone-based shampoos are not preferred because of their bioaccumulating (accumulation in organisms) characteristics. Though they aren’t toxic for hair health, they prepare Shiny-like hair instead of Shiny hair. Silicone compounds weigh down hair due to the veil around them. Impermeable hair gets brittle, dry, and dull after repeated use of silicone shampoo. So, if you have thin, fine hair, we recommend you buy a silicon-free shampoo.
Matching the trends isn’t the idea here. Since a natural shampoo should have healthy, skin-friendly ingredients, there’s no reason why so-called marketers should be worried about it. Indeed, we have noticed several write-ups “dispelling” notions about chemical compounds with half-baked truths and zero substantiated proofs. Some brands also wrongly attribute their product as “natural” even if it’s not. Buyers must make a well-informed decision by checking the list of ingredients on the label.
Whether you are buying offline or online, you must not forget your hair type and scalp health is equally crucial for deciding on a hair product.
