Organic Hair Care My Before & After.

My Before & After Organic Hair Care Change
     
       There are many hair care products out there but are they really safe as they say? This summer I've recently discovered there are many harmful things in your shampoo's & even in your soaps. As I see my hair changing, my curls becoming more defined and healthy I was very curious to what they put in my cleansing items. I've listed a few things down below to show you what to avoid and look out for also some of my home remedies you can try that I've really liked so hopefully you can take some notes and actually look at your ingredients on the label. Anything you put in your body or even in your hair, your body absorbes everything. 


Home Remedies:

1) Avocado Treatment :

1 or 2 Avocado's (preferably organic)
Teaspoon of your organic conditioner 
Disposable gloves *wearing gloves helps work your fingers through your hair just like a comb.*
Clip or Scrunchie

- Mix in blender or mixer whatever you have. Then pour all over your head in sections. Let it sit for 1 hour or however long then wash with shampoo. (p.s. You may have green like particles in your hair even in your comb or brush when it dries the next day but it'll be fine, to me it's like hydration for a longer lasting.) 
 ~ VERY GOOD FOR DRY HAIR OR EXTRA HYDRATION. ~

2) Coconut oil Treatment

Organic Coconut oil 
Disposable gloves *wearing gloves helps work your fingers through your hair just like a comb.*
Plastic disposable shower cap

- Your coconut should be melted but it doesn't have to be mine was just melted already, anyways make sure you already have a small layer of hair already out when you have your gloves on because it's very oily & hydrating. Put how ever much you need for each section of your hair whether it's dry scalp or dry ends it's good for almost anything you need hydrated! Theirs no need to comb when you have the gloves on if you have a knot just spray some water on it & coconut oil and it should untangle. After you've done your whole head tie it in a bun on top of you head or middle, just have it up so your back won't be greasy like. Put the disposable shower cap on & keep it on for however long you want I keep mine on for 15-30 minutes or I go watch a show or movie to pass time by. Take off then wash your hair with your shampoo or cleanser to cleanse your hair but don't wash everything out, just quick wash so some nutrients are still left in your hair so the nutrients can really soak in your scalp. The next time you wash you hair you can cleanse everything.
~ VERY GOOD FOR SHINE & SOFTNESS ALSO, PREVENTS ITCHING YOUR SCALP ~


What To Look Out For In Your Bath Room Products:

1. Dihydroxyacetone
2. Cyclopentasiloxane, dimethicone, dimethiconol
3. Mica
4. Phenoxyethanol
5. Ethylparaben, propylparaben, isobutylparaben, methylparaben, butylparaben
6. Alpha-isomethylionone
7. Benzyl salicylate
8. BHT (butylated hydroxytoluene)
9. Coumarin
10. Butylphenyl methylpropional
11. Geramiol, citronellol, ciral, benzyl salicylate
12. SLS & SLES
13. Propylene Glycol
14. DEA
15. Triclosan
16. Sodium Fluoride
17. Glycerin
18. Saccharin

~ These are the ones I've researched so far but there is pleanty more & I don't doubt they're still trying to make or come up with more harmful ingredients to hurt us every year so just be aware and really read your label please. If you want me to write a article about hair products & what not to use for healthy hair and get links together from many different sites/brands that are organic just let me know.  I'm here to help the world become a healthy place because it starts with us if we feel good with what we put in our bodies, skin, cleansers, treatments, and foods. I have no shadow of a doubt we could change the world if we cleanse not only ourselves but the world not just a few steps at a time. People are dying everyday we have to move fast, it's like a health race for the wellness of not just you but everyone around you, your community, family, friends, neighbors, it affects everyone. ♡
