There are instances where the natural shampoo is causing the
hair too stripped from natural oils content but the truth is that the issue
comes from water and not from the shampoo. Shampoo has been in our history for
many years. Until the time reaches 1960s, shampoo is not that efficient. Since then,
people are utilizing surfactants in order to make the oils from the shampoo to
be rinsed by water since water and oil don’t mix as we all know. However, this
technology can affect the health of the environment.
When it comes to the organic and natural shampoo, they are
using surfactants but from plants. This is the difference when compared to the
regular shampoo that we know. Basically, chemical based shampoos contain
surfactants that are harsh due to the laureth or sodium lauryl sulfate
components. You will find these components common to most personal care
products. Organic shampoo uses surfactants that are obtained from the Castile
or coco-glucoside, which can be found from coconut oil.
There are places in the country where natural shampoo will
not lather as you expected since it depends to the minerals of the water. This will
leave you the feeling to your hair of being dry. The hardness will depend to
the mineral content of the water and in this case, you will need to use organic
conditioner or natural conditioner in order to solve the issues.
